In my best Maxwell Smart voice, missed it by that much.

Is there a discord or something everyone wandered away to?  First nice looking severe event in my area in years and I come in to find it virtually dead?

Sheet metal just struck Timmer's car.

Underwater cam in Grand Isle is definitely back live https://www.severestudios.com/storm-chasers/john.humphress2.html

IT LIVES!

Grand Isle camera is the blue shed moment.

This needs to be repeated for every hurricane.  Make, model, and setup.

Grand Isle camera has been under some waves now.  How high is it mounted?

Jeff is live.

Next cell to go may be this one just north of Wichita.

Keeps rotating and dropping wall clouds, but never makes good on it thus far.  The cloud base is very high.

#HeadSouth is easily the chase target for today.

Yup, out and about already.

SPC calling moderate risk again, TX panhandle.

Strongly reminded of the Andover tornado with the motion.

Any scanners for the area north of joplin and points east that have had this monster wedge move through?

Dade County, MO is offline.

Yeah, it was scary for a bit. So close.

Good God, JoMo, I remember when you disappeared after that thing in 2011.

Yeah you can’t do that.  Sometimes if you have a great view of the very bottom of the base you can gauge if it’s weak or strong based on how fast it’s rotating but I believe a few years ago there was a 1/8th mile wide EF5 in Manitoba  

That was Elie, and it was pretty apparent it was a violent drillbit by the motion.

Cap just broke, explosive growth. (Finally)

Logan County has good rotation.

Wall cloud near Cromwell,

Got a warning on it.

The low-level shear is not very favorable in the SW portion of the watch. Seems odd, but maybe it was a CYA decision for that cell going up. Regardless, the environment becomes increasingly favorable for significant severe with northeastward extent, especially from OKC metro and points northeast. 

PDS for a single cell?

Is this like maintaining High Risk on Monday for a single cell?

Huh, PDS watch.

That escalated quickly.

Isn't this due to the "Plainfield Syndrome", where it's better to issue too many warnings and risk getting a few wrong, rather than underwarn and miss something critical?

Well, we could compare NWO's.  Wichita is notorious for not issuing warnings.

Most of the time I agree, but almost everyone was calling for a potentially historic. NWS, SPC, News outlets, Twitter mets... everyone... and it totally busted. That has impact on people, especially when in general, meteorologists aren't trusted to begin with.

We're a bit insulated in the met community to our technicals.

The dismissal of public perception and reception happens too often.
