MADDOGG Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 yea never thought it would be an all out outbreak. but most likely will be a good show for some, I know winter was very ruff for us so any thunder is welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Considering a storm chase Thursday basing out of Memphis. Once again we'll have a line of strong storms already in progress during the morning. That line will come out of Arkansas. However there should be even more activity in the free warm sector than last time. Warmer and much more humid. I expect yet another reinforcing surge of moisture from the Gulf. That boundary will intersect a pre-frontal trough. Very clearly forecast wind shift well ahead of the cold front, away from undercutting. The Mississippi tornadoes last week were on a similar boundary intersection. A slightly positive tilt is a bit of an issue. Otherwise the system looks pretty good. If I can get out, I'll head to MEM very early Thursday. From there watch the boundaries and decide. Could be eastern Ark. Could be North Miss. Could be West Tenn. We'll see. To all, be safe.

nrgjeff Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Stayed back here in Chatt. Woke up this morning and figured "no clear target," so I'll just go to work. No regrets. Gulf Front is returning in Mississippi but not even close to Memphis. SPC just tornado boxed it for discrete ahead of the line. I agree. Earlier Mississippi dewpoints were terrible as moisture was pulled into Illinois by the northern main low. Now the southern branch is coming out of Texas and Arkansas. That'll pull dews back into Mississippi but not much farther north than I-20. Meanwhile the Midwest is falling apart. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Slight risk for tomorrow for much of central and eastern NC/SC not sure how good it will play out, I plan on fishing till 12-1 so it better hold off till after then but timing looks like near dark here anyways.

downeastnc Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 I wish I could understand why GA is left out of the slight risk. In AL today and NC and SC tomorrow... Timing issues it seems, looks like most of the passage will be overnight into the early morning which is pretty much a kiss of death for severe storms..... still there is a chance you guys might see a little action FFC THE FRONT WILL APPROACH NORTHWEST GEORGIA CLOSE TO SUNRISE FRIDAY MORNING...THOUGH SHOWERS AHEAD OF THE FRONT MAY APPROACH NORTHWEST GEORGIA AS EARLY AS 06-08Z OR SO. TEMPS WILL BE NEARLY STEADY IN THE LOWER 60S FOR MOST OF THE DAY ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA...THOUGH WE SHOULD SEE MORE OF A DIURNAL CURVE ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA ESPECIALLY IF SOME SUN MANAGES TO PEEK THROUGH BEFORE THE FRONT GETS THERE. THAT SAID...ANY SUN WOULD ACT TO INCREASE INSTABILITY VALUES...AND AS IT IS MLCAPES ARE PROGGED TO BE ABOUT 700-900 J/KG ACROSS CENTRAL GEORGIA. VERY LITTLE CAPE TO SPEAK OF ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA AS THE FRONT WILL BE PUSHING THROUGH IN THE MORNING...BUT THE ATMOSPHERE MAY MANAGE TO SQUEAK OUT 250 J/KG OR SO. OVERALL TIMING BRINGS THE FRONT INTO THE METRO AREA AROUND 15Z...TOWARD MCN AROUND 18-19Z...AND FINALLY OUT OF THE AREA NO LATER 00Z. EXPECT SOME LINGERING SHOWERS AND CLOUDINESS BEHIND THE FRONT BUT THE THUNDER CHANCES WILL BE ALONG OR AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THE BIG CONCERN FOR NORTH/NORTHWEST GEORGIA WILL BE THE SHEAR. 850MB LLJ OF 50-60KT AND 925MB LLJ OF 30-40KT WILL BE PUSHING INTO NORTHWEST GEORGIA WITH THE FRONT. HOWEVER...THE SURFACE LOW WILL BE STRONGLY OCCLUDED BY THAT POINT AND BEGINNING TO REALLY LIFT NORTH. BEST DPVA ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER TROUGH REMAINS WELL TO THE WEST /STILL IN THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BY 12Z FRIDAY/...AND WILL DIMINISH SIGNIFICANTLY THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY AS THE TROUGH BEGINS TO LIFT AND DECREASE SLIGHTLY IN AMPLITUDE. NONETHELESS...30-45KT 0-1KM SHEAR MANAGES TO WORK ITS WAY INTO NORTHWEST GEORGIA WITH 50-60KT 0-6KM SHEAR. SO THE COMPETING FACTORS WILL BE THE HIGH SHEAR AND LOW TO NO CAPE IN NORTHWEST ZONES VS THE MODERATE CAPE AND LOW TO NO SHEAR IN SOUTHEAST ZONES. NOTHING LIKE BEING CLEAR AS MUD. SPC OUTLOOKS COVER THE FORECAST AREA WITH THE 5 PERCENT WIND PROBS...BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS MINIMAL AND NONE OF OUR COUNTIES ARE INCLUDED IN THE SLIGHT RISK. OVERALL AGREE WITH THIS ASSESSMENT AND FEEL IF ANYTHING THERE MIGHT BE TWO WINDOWS FOR POTENTIAL SEVERE...ONE EARLY IN THE EVENT AS THE BEST SHEAR MOVES INTO NORTHWEST GEORGIA...WITH A LULL LATE MORNING...AND ANOTHER ROUND OF WEAK POTENTIAL IN THE AFTERNOON AS CAPES INCREASE ACROSS SOUTHEAST ZONES.

DISCUSSION...THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP ACROSS PORTIONS OF CNTRL/ERN NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINA DURING THE EARLY AFTERNOON ALONG AN EWD ADVANCING COLD FRONT. THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE INTO AN INCREASINGLY MORE UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT...CHARACTERIZED BY SFC TEMPERATURES WARMING INTO THE LOW-TO-MID 80S AND SFC DEW POINTS INCREASING INTO THE UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S.

ADDITIONALLY...DEEP LAYER SHEAR VALUES /CURRENTLY BETWEEN 25-30 KTS/ SHOULD INCREASE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON /TO AROUND 40-45 KTS/ AS THE REGION IS GLANCED BY THE STRONGER MID-TROPOSPHERIC FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE LARGE ERN CONUS TROUGH. THIS COMBINATION OF INSTABILITY AND DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL SUPPORT THUNDERSTORM ORGANIZATION AND AN ATTENDANT THREAT FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND ISOLATED QLCS/BOW ECHO TORNADOES. ..MARSH/MEAD.. 04/19/2013 ATTN...WFO...RAH...ILM...RNK...CAE...GSP...
