jojo762 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 If there is any tornado there, it will be close to I-40 reflectivity presentation of the storm looks impressive and pretty classic...

mfgmfg Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 That cell in north central Oklahoma seems like it's growing into a huge meso? edit: rather, it's growing quite large and had a significant hail core that was moving very slowly or was stationary.

1900hurricane Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 That general area around Stephenville TX has certainly been the hot spot for svr wx this season. I can attest to that. I've gone through Stephenville on four chases now: 4/24, 4/26, 5/9, and today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Msalgado Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Left last minute just before 1pm. Was not sure if I wanted to chase today, but ended up having a partner and it worked out great. I'm gonna go through my pictures, but we saw 4 funnels though I'm not sure if any actually made it down. Also had good structure for awhile around I20. Not quite as pretty as 4/26 but not half bad either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo762 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Tomorrow has some good potential but the NAM has a weird SW moving MCS type thingy. 2015! most of the high-res/global NWP shows a pretty to very good background environment for tomorrow in both winds and thermodynamics. But all of them basically point to it being messy, with a cluster/MCS type feature over NW OK/SW KS... Once again though, if any storm can be discrete/semi-discrete it will have a good shot at a tornado given the environment, and especially toward evening as the LLJ kicks in. 00Z NAM forecast soundings (which also shows that MCS) shows impressive low-level hodographs up and down the dryline. Great directional turning (meh as far as speeds go) throughout the entire wind profile as well. With maybe a VERY slight VBV in a few soundings/hodographs. Anyways, tomorrow looks like a day where there's never really too much tornado potential basing off of what models show as far as precip and storm mode, but there is a conditional chance if we can get a storm to be semi-discrete given the somewhat impressive environment.

Smokey_mountain_vols Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I have a legitimate question for once. Why don't you guys just make one massive severe weather thread? Is it because you'd prefer to have separate threads to make sure there's no confusion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Msalgado Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Really poorly and quickly edited picture of a tornado/(incredibly low but not touching funnel) from north of Stephenville. https://twitter.com/msalgado/status/603456662750396416 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo762 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Two isolated supercells in W KS attm, both have hooks as well... And then the isolated discrete tornadic supercell in NE CO, which appears to have been producing a tornado for a while now. Tornado watch out for the panhandles and W OK now too.

Chinook Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Storms in Kansas are barely moving. I would have expected a little more eastward motion, given 30 kts at 500mb (westerly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Can a mod change the thread title to include the 27th? Today seems like a good day to chase based on storm motions alone so far. Wish I could be there. Good luck to those in western KS and the TX/OK panhandles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
