  1. Wow. In only 27 hours... looks like 6-7 in the southern, eastern great valley this is one heck of a system.
  2. Apparently you have to have a special camera to catch lightning. I had my phone set up and got a super vivid flash and this was all it took: All you can see is a little bit of light through the trees, and you better be in a dark room, lol
  3. Yeah, first edge of that mess is hitting me now. Heaviest rain of the day and lightning now.
  4. Euro precip projections. Up close and personal: EPS city plots:
  5. front yard, day 1: several creeks crossing the roads in my area of Morgan county (Mossy Grove)
  6. If anyone (like me) has a masochistic urge to go back and look at old Himawari 8 images for comparison, here ye go: https://seg-web.nict.go.jp/wsdb_osndisk/shareDirDownload/bDw2maKV?sI=D531106,D531107,TI,D531106m,D531107m,TIm,evm&sIt=data_im&lang=en
  7. https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-51070870 Article about how the Euro uses ultraviolet beams from a satellite to gauge wind speeds in the atmosphere.
  8. That part of the line that produced the tornado moved right over my neighborhood in Morgan County. I was gone, luckily nothing here except some large limbs down, but my wife was here and said it was pretty rough. TROWAL dog apparently tried to hide behind the toilet.
  9. About 2 inches so far now. EPS mean starting to show 7 inches in some spots over the next 15 days: Individual city charts:
  10. I'm at 1.4" since midnight and the firehose really just started in the past half hour. Not promising to see a bunch of flash flood warnings in its wake:
  11. Firehose has geared up for the evening. The only question is where will it ultimately aim?
  12. The cell over my area right now means business. Loudest thunder, heaviest rain, and most lightning of the night. Headed your way John.
  13. Nothing like what's happened further south, but some very vivid lightning on the plateau as I drove in from Knoxville.
  14. That cell definitely looks stout on satellite: The setup is interesting to me since there seem to be 2 lines of more intense convection with one? MCS (colder cloud tops and radar are how I'm distinguishing that) that seem to merge over the OH river on the KY and IL border. I've seen this before with two distinct bows and a gap in the middle and always wondered what the cause for that was.
  15. This sucker is hauling it. 1 - 2 hours ahead of HRRR. Always liked MCSs as long as they don't have a ton of wind. As MRX mentioned, HRRR has been more consistent with at least timing, while other models like NAM and RGEM have already lost it entirely. HRRR gives the northern limb a boost as it swings through KY and TN, will be interesting to see if, regardless of timing, this predicted aspect of it develops. Radar looks auspicious for that, as of now.
  16. This was all that was left of the rotation over Clinton in the radar loop above, when it moved over Knoxville, just north of my area (in a one minute time lapse): Radar loop at the same time:
  17. The cell in Knox now has a warning too. Decent hook on radar and each of the three cells behind the Knox county one look like they may have a little hook on radar too:
  18. Tornado warning in Hancock County and a couplet just north of Knoxville:
