All Activity

Looks like we’re not done. Sounding for Murfreesboro at 4 AM is a loaded gun. I’m afraid more boundaries are being laid.

What a night for the TN Valley. My goodness this has been a prolific three days

Confirmed deaths in Columbia

multiple confirmed tornado warnings at the AL/TN border

My temperature has risen to 78.5

I was dealing with severe weather here in Charlotte. I noticed that there have been numerous reports of tornadoes across Middle Tennessee. The conga line of discrete supercells look like what most were expecting last night across the IL-IN-OH-KY portion of yesterday's moderate risk event.

In addition to tying the record high, DFW also saw its earliest highest dewpoint ever observed with the dewpoint topping out at 78*F today. Previous record was also 78*F on 5/13/1995.

Yeah, it is getting wild now. There are multiple rotating thunderstorms in Northern Alabama all the way through eastern part of Middle Tennessee.

Looks like hell is breaking loose on the southern highland rim.

Something going majorly wrong to not have a confirmed warning on the Elkton cell Edit: far too delayed but finally they got it.

The South is so much fun after dark, but not the weather. Seems like it's escalating juuust a bit.

Well, it was gorgeous weather down here. Just as it was 6/1/11. Congrats for those that saw some action today! EMLFTMFW.

Little thunder from Marchand on Tkachuk. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. https://x.com/ConorRyan_93/status/1788355297653731704

Missed out on the severe but:

My office in Barnstable getting hit with big hail now .

Based on how it looked on radar and what we had here it could have been >2" diameter in Woods Hole.

Can see maybe quarters plus near woods hole

One more coming . Can hear thunder, should put us well up over 1.5” today ftl

String of pearls shows little sign of congealing into a line. Oh yeah, we're in the South. We do our tornadoes at night! Normally that doesn't make it over the Plateau. Tonight unfortunately we have Great Plains parameters in place, so.. Remember southeast Tennessee tornado watch until Midnight Eastern. The cell just south of Murfreesboro caused the damaging tornado earlier. From just issued Mesoscale Discussion #716. Parameters are for the vicinity of the line of pearls. New watch will be Western and Middle Tenn. The airmass across this region remains very unstable, with mixed-layer CAPE in the 3000 to 4000 J/kg range. This should be more than sufficient to sustain vigorous updrafts, support CAM runs which increase convective coverage over the next several hours. Strong deep-layer winds will support organized convection, with an all-hazards severe risk likely to continue through the evening and into the overnight hours -- warranting new tornado watch issuance across this region.

Still no squall line. Just a string of pearls as the LLJ cranks up at dark. Oh yeah, we're in the South! Goodness I almost forgot. Those usually won't make it across the Plateau into Chatty. But we usually don't have Great Plains parameters in place. Oh goodie!

Another shot of cooler air will begin to arrive tomorrow. The chill won't be exceptional for the season. However, Friday could be mainly cloudy with highs only in the 50s in much of the region. Some showers are possible. The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was 0.8°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.5°C for the week centered around May 1. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged -0.08°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.85°C. The ongoing basinwide El Niño event is fading. Neutral conditions could develop later in the spring. The SOI was +12.12 today. The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -0.368 today. Based on sensitivity analysis applied to the latest guidance, there is an implied 57% probability that New York City will have a warmer than normal May (1991-2020 normal). May will likely finish with a mean temperature near 64.2° (1.0° above normal).

saw a few 70dBZ pixels mixed in. epic

Indeed!

This is wild. Never seen hail like that before was accumulating in the street for a bit and is still on the grass.
