Bulk shear on that supercell is not that great but it is moving into an area of very good helicity and has adequate CAPE. Helicity values north and nw of there are astounding.

andyhb Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Going to be difficult to get anything more than short-lived tornadogenesis with the cell in LA (or anywhere else for that matter) given the lack of venting flow aloft and precip-choked RFDs. Bulk shear is also very poor. All symptoms of the meridional orientation of the trough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically like a tornado emergency for flooding. Nearing 4.25" here and nearly all of it was runoff because of saturated ground. Some areas to the south probably have 9+" by now. I know they just shut down the city of Seneca and are having the MO Highway Patrol/National Guard rescue people and evacuate the town now. Neosho lost 2 water pumps and are on the backup towers now, people have had to be evacuated that experienced flooding. Pretty bad in this area.

jojo762 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Seems to be some evidence of a possible TDS on that storm as well. Not a significant CC drop, but there is definitely a CC drop that coincides with the TVS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
