  1. Ah, thank you. I see, and again we're shown how much subtle details matter. Looks like the localized backing of winds and enlargement of the hodographs (among some other ingredients you mentioned of course) really helped turn that storm into a powerful tornadic supercell. And honestly 35 knots of bulk shear sounds like more shear than there's been in most of the setups so far this month, I could be wrong though.
  2. Deadly EF3 tornado confirmed from Louisiana yesterday... The atmosphere can really surprise us. Does anyone know what the environment in that area was like at the time of the tornado(es) there? I basically paid no attention to it considering it had been a general t-storm risk area
  3. For that storm https://mobile.twitter.com/BraxBanksOKWX/status/1262205919586377730
  4. Now got a tornado warning south of Omaha, NE
  5. Wowie, tornado warnings for 5 different cells/areas of rotation in the Arklatex region now
  6. Yeah pretty interesting for the time of year. I rarely chase and don't have much experience, sort of an armchair kinda person, but I've been looking to go chasing more often (mostly local) and darn I didn't anticipate this; it's only a couple hours away from me. The tornado-warned storms are pretty much lined up from NW to SE, one could just hop down each cell as they see fit (but of course the decision on when to change storms would require more effort and thought). On the other hand, the terrain isn't too ideal in that area and lots of rain happening so I guess that takes away from the likelihood of having a nice view.
  7. A few tornado warnings in effect in parts of NE Texas and SE Oklahoma with the area of low-topped supercells there in the slight risk area
  8. Picture of tornado near Red Rock, TX https://mobile.twitter.com/JohnRichTX/status/1260228858223251461
  9. I guess I could post this here then... Confirmed tornado SE of Austin a while ago and two TOR warned storms continue in that general area. SPC says watch possible and central TX will be upgraded to slight risk. And nice shots Quincy! Bummer that you missed out on Amarillo but cool structure on your storm nonetheless.
  10. Could end Kansas' tornado drought this year if we do get some action there
