Derecho! Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Having three radars down (KMXX, KEOX, KVAX) covering at least part of a PDS Tornado watch has to be unprecedented, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the storms to its south are causing it to broaden out into an MCV/comma head. Not good for later tour prospects if this goes linear.

burrel2 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I just about pissed my pants here. Heard a loud snap sound and about 1/4 second later the thunder felt like it about knocked my house down!

Lookout Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 1 minute ago, LithiaWx said: My yard looks like a lake. 4-5 could be easy to hit. yeah same here...the pasture is flooded big time. It really takes a lot of rain in a very short period of time or a prolonged heavy rain event for it to be as flooded as it is. Currently, 3.02 and counting. I'm glad to see it, lakes and ponds are still low around here. This is the type of rain event we needed to fill them up. storms have weakened quite a bit for most of north ga but training of storms along the atlanta to athens corridor look like it's going to continue for some time to come.

burrel2 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Dang that SC cell looks wicked now... that would be a good viewing area for chasers with lots of cleared agricultural land and peach orchards. I'd guess most of them are back to the west though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can be very dangerous with so much rain surrounding the tornado (if there is one). You can't see the tornado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
