  1. Confirmed tornado headed into STL metro, right towards the NWS office in Weldon Spring. .
  2. It's a whole string of embedded supercells headed for STL, and they're racing at highway speeds. There is a lot of outdoor events tonight, such as at Forest Park and the Missouri Botanical Garden in the city, for the holidays.
  3. Yeah, the usually conservative tv mets here are becoming very concerned with the quick evolution of this group. Starting to see a lot of mergers and cells becoming dominant. .
  4. Very likely about to get a confirmed TOR near Marshfield, MO. That cell is on a perfect trajectory for STL metro. .
  5. The activity over western MO will tell the tale for the northern half of the risk. We'll see if things stay more linear or if we can get more robust updrafts to become more individual.
  6. Looks like at least half the house on pilings for the surge cam is gone.
  7. I'm surprised NHC didn't at least move the hurricane warning eastward to capture Hancock County, MS.
  8. Well, that was a nice, intense group of storms here in southern St. Louis. Max gusts 70-75mph and the roar that preceded it for a good 2 minutes was fantastic. It's been a bit since I've had that much wind and near constant sound of trees snapping.
  9. "Damaging tornado likely." Well no f**king s**t.
  10. Yeah, the CC drop on that supercell is very impressive.
  11. I'm watching the chances of SVR basically cratering for STL metro with this bullshit slowly moving in from central & western MO. Still no SVR or TOR warning for St. Louis County & City the whole spring.
  12. Well, that escalated quickly, and still no TOR watch yet.
  13. CC drop really increased on the most recent scan. Without question still down. .
  14. Looks like we’re getting circulation handoff as it’s approaching Rockford. .
  15. Likely tornado in Smyrna, TN at this time. 7 miles NW of my parents place. .
  16. Cell near Ashland, MS has broad rotation. .
  17. Cell approaching Perryville, TN is definitely getting together very quickly. .
  18. HUN straight up issued tornado emergencies versus tornado warnings for a period on 4/27. Also, literally every single thing was rotating that day. Tony Lyza posted something a few months back where multiple rain showers were rotating moderately before they even had achieved 40dBz returns. .
  19. I personally do not and think very few do as well. If, big if, they do, it'll be during Day 1 issuances but still unlikely for 06z given potential for warm sector contamination.
  20. Oof, that is certainly a very high ceiling scenario, to say the least.
  21. If they ever question terrain, give them video of the Empire, AL EF4 from 4/27/2011. Such a beast.
