kevlon62 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Can't remember exactly when but there was a shot like that a few years ago or so (also in IL). Would be even cooler to see it roll over a field that is completely snow covered.That Union Pacific freight train cam caught the January 7, 2008 twister near Harvard, IL with snow on the ground as well.Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 1 minute ago, hlcater said: That probably wouldn't happen. Would feel as if the lowered temperatures from the melting snow cover would make the immediate ground layer stable. Especially with complete snow cover moreso than just patches. It's hard to pull off for sure. Need such perfect timing with the melting snow. The depth could matter too... like if the snowcover is rapidly melting down to an inch or two, I think that may have less impact on the near surface layer compared to still having several inches on the ground.

Worst part is, I would have chased it and my forecast was nearly perfect. So I would've seen these tornadoes. Alas I had other obligations so there was no chasing today even though I would've liked to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlcater Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Cell near Forest City(SE lewistown) getting ready to undergo a cell merger with a weak, developing updraft. Interested to see how this turns out, but similar interactions have strengthened circulations in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 This isn’t one of those “it may not register on the MLCAPE maps but look it’s 100 J/KG 0-3 km CAPE!” events we get in December...legit CAPE to go with winter dynamics. Was surprised to see that when I checked the mesoanalysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
