Not that I would want them to be any stronger; I have relatives of my family that live in the Eutaw, AL area. I wouldn’t write this area off yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0368.html Mesoscale Discussion 0368 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0736 PM CDT Sun Apr 12 2020 Areas affected...southeast Mississippi/central and southern Alabama Concerning...Tornado Watch 110... Valid 130036Z - 130200Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 110 continues. SUMMARY...Severe/tornado risk continues across WW 110. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a couple of rotating cells moving east-northeastward across the northwestern corner of the WW at this time -- i.e. Greene/Sumter County area in Alabama. The broader band of convection that includes these storms extends south-southwestward into eastern Louisiana, where a few well-organized storms are occurring. This convection will spread into western portions of WW 110 over the next hour -- sustained by an axis of 1500 to 2000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE over the southwestern corner of Alabama. Given the background kinematic environment that remains strongly supportive of supercells, severe risk -- including potential for tornadoes -- continues. ..Goss.. 04/13/2020 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

While the circulation near Union is weakening, the situation could change quickly given other parameters. That storm doesn't seem to be in an overly favorable tornado environment atm. Low level lapse rates/3km cape are poor. I certainly wouldn't let my guard down in Tuscaloosa though. Things can change fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 New Tornado watch coming downstream of the N GA one shortly -- https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0369.html Mesoscale Discussion 0369 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0741 PM CDT Sun Apr 12 2020 Areas affected...northern GA...far southeast TN...and western portions of NC Concerning...Tornado Watch 112... Valid 130041Z - 130145Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 112 continues. SUMMARY...Damaging wind/tornado risk is expanding into the southwestern TN area and adjacent portions of the western Carolinas. A new tornado watch will be issued. DISCUSSION...A long-lived, well-organized cluster of storms that has maintained tornadic potential despite the marginal thermodynamic environment, continues moving northeastward across northwestern GA/WW 112. Given the organization of the storms, it appears that damaging wind/tornado risk will continue spreading into western portions of North Carolina and far southeastern Tennessee. A new, small tornado watch will be issued shortly, downstream from WW 112. ..Goss.. 04/13/2020 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...GSP...MRX...FFC...
