Witness Protection Program Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 That one across southeast Dallas County looked amazing from 25 miles away in far west Plano. You had to break your neck to tilt back far enough to see the tops around 7:45 tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Mesoscale Discussion 0354 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0821 PM CDT Fri Apr 09 2021 Areas affected...parts of north Texas Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 82... Valid 100121Z - 100415Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 82 continues. SUMMARY...Sporadic cells capable of large hail remain possible within WW 82. A squall line is expected to back build southwestward along the front later this evening, with damaging wind potential into north Texas. DISCUSSION...The 00Z FWD sounding shows strong instability, with very steep lapse rates aloft and around 3500 J/kg MLCAPE. The hodograph is mostly straightline, supporting splitting cells in the Dallas area. A strong cold front is currently surging southeast across southern OK and into northwest TX. A squall line is taking shape over southern OK, and further back building is expected as the strong convergence interacts with the more unstable air mass south of the Red River. Therefore, in addition to a hail threat in the short term, a damaging wind threat may take shape over the next several hours. It is difficult to determine how far southwest the squall line will build, but portions of the I-35 corridor may be at risk this evening. ..Jewell.. 04/10/2021 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Kind of wish I had gone earlier, but took some video of lightning and storm pics for the first time about 20 minutes ago. It's not really post-worthy, but I'm just glad I was able to go out for the first time this year to see a storm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 This was perhaps the best radar image of the Brandon Mississippi area tornado. It is possible that it moved northwards or NNE-wards for a couple of miles near Pelahatchie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeselandSkies Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Does anyone find odd the lack of any tornado watches covering a 10% hatched area on the convective outlook? Especially since they routinely issue red boxes for 5% contours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since they routinely issue red boxes for 5% contours. Well, I noticed a lot of SVR watches over the 10% but a TOR watch just got issued for basically the 10% hatched area. Still also found the earlier watches a bit unusual, but given how I can really only recall one tornado actually confirmed at this point in time, I guess it was the correct decision overall. Hoping we don't have any strong tornadoes overnight given that the ingredients are still favorable over southern LA/MS where the new tornado watch just got issued, going until 7 AM.

LOL, they must have issued that right after I posted and went to bed. Sounds like there was a destructive tornado at Palmetto, LA although it doesn't show as a tornado on the SPC LSR page...yet.

Based on the street he named and looking at Google Maps, it looks like it actually missed Palmetto proper to the south. There's a school, post office, two churches, and several businesses in addition to many more homes there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I don't recall there ever being so many hail reports in a day (I'm sure there has been, but it doesn't happen often), especially spread across such a wide area and outpacing wind reports 2-to-1.
