kayman Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 That is an absolutely stupid statement. Obviously, you haven't lived in another region where that statement has more truth to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disc Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Is there a TOG with that cell....or is SVR warning probably fitting? Possibly at one point considering how strong the velocities were. Rotation has broadened now as it heads NNE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADDOGG Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 this storm in the atl looks like somthing no? Edit- wife swap is on wsb Edit 2- If that cell was alittle further east, looks like it was robbed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkman Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Is there a TOG with that cell....or is SVR warning probably fitting? If TOG is the warning requirement then people sure have wasted a lot of time and money trying to increase the warning times. Also I don't see anything suspicious looking with the storm inside the beltway right now, maybe some hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguy3107 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 The NWS FFC office doesn't handle TVS or issuing Tornado Warnings in the actual Metro Atlanta area. What are you talking about? Who issues them then, Grand Forks North Dakota? Anyway, very small cell now SVR warned headed right for us here in NE Gwinnett. Rotation has been detected but nothing significant yet.

SmokeEater Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Georgia Storm Chaser @StormCoker20m Full size pine tree blocking road in Mountain Park, Ga. House with major damage! NWS never warned it! People apparently saw a tornado! I haven't heard one single report of a tornado from any of the counties that storm went through on scanner feeds, just some sporadic straightline wind damage. And one house damaged, does not mean it was a tornado. Unless you have first hand knowledge, I would wait to bash them. Actually I see that you pasted that tweet, obviously that's directed at the guy making the tweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SluggerWx Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Does anyone have scans from about 15-20 minutes ago near Montgomery? It would be interesting to see what was showing up on radar when the public noticed a tornado. This seems to be one of those cases where the public reports it without it being indicated first on the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
