brianc33710 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 The SPC was right to NOT upgrade this outbreak to a high risk. This was a significant severe weather outbreak, but moderate risk much better summarizes what did & didn't happen. The 1st PDS TW was right but the 2nd didn't really reach the criteria. We had an EF-4/5, and we don't yet know the number of EF-2/3s. And of course we had some EF-0/1s. I guess we will find out more over the next 2-3 days. I know it's not 100% over. I just want to qualify what I wrote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreeyiss Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Something may be on the ground north of whitesburg. I can’t even make out a velocity couplet, but there’s a blue/green blob moving ene on cc. Atlanta may need to watch this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have to take the mother of all right turns to get to Macon, which isn't going to happen. It will stay well north of Macon. Looks like it's weakening anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
