I don’t know anything about the chasers so I’ll refrain on talking about that but they put themselves in quite the precarious spot there. It’s why conditions matter. On a slight risk day you might be able to get away with it (I never would) where parameters aren’t as violent, but on a day like today!? You have to assume everything will turn strong/violent. It’s amazing how fast development occurs in person 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jut2005 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Couplet fell apart just before the 80/380 interchange.Just in time. Obviously people’s lives are most important but they have been working on that interchange for 3-4 years and are about to complete that project which I believe was a 400 million dollar project. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMADreamer Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Definitely rotating wall cloud but I could not say if it was on the ground. It was confirmed to have touched down in brown county. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that TOR warned cell by Bourbon MO is aligned to head right towards the STL metro….dangerous situation shaping up for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calderon Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Going to be interesting with interaction and a merger probable between the two TOR warned cells southwest of STL. I'm much more concerned for areas roughly from Edwardsville, to Valley Park, to Pacific, and points east of there, including downtown and the Metro East (Scott AFB). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 69 mph wind gust at the Cedar Rapids airport, 70 mph in Hiawatha. I could hear the roaring wind coming. The line was weakening as it moved through, but we still managed to get about a 60 mph gust. That's it for me today. Most of the action went around me.

Natester Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Wind was really intense from the second line of storms. Must have been 70-75 mph winds. Didn't lose power but lost internet for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoalaBeer Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Looks like Charlotte Iowa just took a direct hit. Significant CC drop on that one. STL bound storms thankfully petered out some. The recently TOR warned storms in Arkansas are concerning for the Memphis metro downstream. That storm that went through Covington might be the one of the outbreak…maybe the most significant outbreak I’ve tracked since 2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
