  1. Debris fallout signature is just sickening...
  2. Tornado emergency directly extended for Peachtree City
  3. Another deep TDS and debris ball on reflectivity...
  4. Mesoscale Discussion 0268 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1026 PM CDT Thu Mar 25 2021 Areas affected...parts of west-central GA Concerning...Tornado Watch 52... Valid 260326Z - 260430Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 52 continues. SUMMARY...Tornado potential will maximize near the GA/AL border and eventually spread into the greater Atlanta exurbia through 1230 am EDT. It is uncertain how far east the higher probabilities for a tornado will eventually develop due to increasingly marginal low-level moisture with east extent. DISCUSSION...Surface analysis indicates mid 60s deg F dewpoints straddling the GA/AL border in west-central GA to the east of a supercell with a history of producing tornadoes (likely strong) over east-central AL. The latest RAP/NAM indicate lowest 100 mb mean mixing ratios increasing into the 13-14 g/kg range over the next hour with MLCAPE increasing from 750 J/kg to 1000-1200 J/kg. The KFFC VAD showed 500 m2/s2 0-1km SRH within the moist/sufficiently unstable airmass. Current thinking is the increasingly rich low-level moisture (dewpoints rising from 64-65 to 66) may enable a greater risk for a tornado over the next hour or so. ..Smith.. 03/26/2021
  5. Area just south of Columbiana, AL taking very heavy damage right now.
  6. It might miss the core of the towns just to the south... Radar could be distorting the image so we just can't be sure, but I'm hoping.
  7. Yeah let's hope it stays that way (broadened out and not OTG)
  8. Length of the warning for B'ham metro storm tells me that BMX thinks that'll be an intense-violent long-tracker as well
  9. North Birmingham cell tightening up big-time as well
  10. @CheeselandSkies here's the Bassfield-type signature that didn't occur last week
  11. Anyone know if the first destructive long-track sup could have left an outflow boundary...? That sup would ride it for miles and miles if that were the case.
  12. Storm near Forkland, AL forming a very intense meso and BWER
  13. 3 reported fatalities in Calhoun county, AL (where Ohatchee is located). Multiple other injuries.
  14. Tornado watch for a good chunk of TN and up into the lower OV. 70/60 TOR probs
  15. New tornado warning for Blount and Jefferson counties in AL
  16. Couplet SW of Cave Spring, GA is becoming quite intense. The supercell structure looks like slop but it's probably being scanned from pretty high
  17. Please for the love of God why do supercells keep ramping up in this same exact area
  18. Brian Emfinger reporting possible fatality, presumably from the Ohatchee area remains unconfirmed at this time
  19. Copic sees large tornado again apparently, better not get close to being killed again.
  20. Spann telling other news staff to get ready to shelter
  21. Reminds me of when on 4/27 people were talking about how lucky we were that the tornado didn't hit south metro instead... Definitely not trying to suggest it's at EF4-EF5 strength, just the track of it (though I fear it could continue to strengthen)
