    yeah, no cold air mass to really work with. No cold air mass to power up that ever-elusive "cold conveyor belt," one of my favorite terms.
  2. Chinook
    Sure, rain.
  3. Chinook
    this is neat.
  4. Chinook
    basically three areas of low pressure are going to combine

    yeah with a million severe weather reports, 2 years ago today! Ouch! Up to 58 degrees here, with dew point of 28, not too much wind. I am starting to believe I'm back in Colorado with wintertime warm days. It's a blue sky with some cirrus clouds, much like a lot of ridge-days in Colorado. I'm walking outside, thinking I'll see a lenticular cloud over Longmont or something, then I remember I'm not there. Thanks, Mr. El Nino! to commemorate our really nice day--

    More of the upcoming El Nino
  7. Chinook
    this rain and snow is starting to resemble ... something from EL NINO? WHAT?
  8. Chinook
    Moderate snow at Colorado Springs, moderate to heavy snow at Pueblo for a while

    There have been several surveyed EF-1 to EF-3 tornadoes. I believe some news sources say 6 fatalities in Tennessee. The SPC web site says 62 injured at Woodlawn Tennessee. A lot more preliminary tornado reports on the SPC list are not showing any type of EF indicator

    Be glad you are not in Kazakhstan/Russia/Mongolia/China. I think this extremely cold air mass has been developing for 1-2 weeks. Surgut to Omsk had -20F to -40F for their low temps, with high temps nearly the same. It was -30F temperatures in Kazakhstan. Nearly all of the rest of the world (not including Russia) was at or above normal temperatures from Dec 3-9 according to reanalysis plot.

    Two years ago today: Mayfield tornado outbreak back on 12/10/1995, an arctic cold front came through the Great Lakes, along with this mini-polar vortex at 500mb leading the way. The combination of synoptic/lake effect snow events gave Sault Ste Marie 56.5" of snow and the snow depth jumped up by 31". Near Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, over 30" of snow happened. As you can see on here, the 850mb temp dropped to -20C with 40 knot winds at Buffalo.

    radar may be detecting debris just east of I-40
  13. Chinook
    Confirmed! between Garner and I-40
  14. Chinook
    tornado warning at Garner (Raleigh)- the rotation looks somewhat strong. There's kind of a false signal for tornado debris (I don't think the radar is seeing debris)

    hey! record high of 65 at Toledo, breaking the daily (pretty break-able) record of 60. Just a bit of rain at my place today, and I don't know if I ever really had a shot to hear one or two rumble of thunder.
  16. Chinook
    STP around the start of the event
  17. Chinook
    tornado hit something that exploded with fire. It's most likely the start of the Hendersonville-Gallatin tornado, before Hendersonville near I-65 in the Nashville metro area.
  18. Chinook
    tornado video from Hendersonville
  19. Chinook
    I think we have big debris at Hendersonville
  20. Chinook
    significant debris shown south and east of Springfield Tennessee
  21. Chinook
    double rotation
  22. Chinook
    tornado reported near Springfield, Tennessee
  23. Chinook
    tornado debris for sure south of Ashland City now
  24. Chinook
    new confirmed tornado here, about 24 miles west of Nashville
  25. Chinook
    50 mile mesocylone track - how long was the tornado?
