CheeselandSkies Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 2 hours ago, Ed, snow and hurricane fan said: Speaking of the NAM, I'm pretty sure a forecast STP of 51 is probably top 10 all time. That's the supercell composite; STP is 15.7 (cin)/11.8 (fix). Still very impressive numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mob1 Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 That isolated supercell east of Wichita Falls that's crossing into OK now is really taking off. I think that's the strong cell the HRRR has trekking through southern OK for the next few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Not a whole lot has happened with tornadoes/longer lasting tornadoes. There still could be a lot of tornado warnings to track. There was a confirmed tornado 6 miles north of Chester, Oklahoma. I believe there was a brief tornado(es) by Cross Plains, Texas a while back.

We've seen some events kick off relatively late this year so we'll see if things pick up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 This is starting to seem somewhat like the high-risk day on Apr 27, as not too many of the tornadoes before sunset. (and that one busted in terms of concentrated tornado coverage) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vman722 Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Big shrink of the moderate risk in the latest update. Another day showing there’s so much more than just an impressive parameter space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted May 26 Author Share Posted May 26 A dud for central Oklahoma, thankfully. I think early storm initiation and all of the left moving cells leading to clustering really tempered the event across KS/OK. North Texas had a few notable tornadoes and what about that discrete cell by Ardmore? I called the chase off an hour ago, a whole lot of nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 I've partially given up on it. The tornado threat should have ramped up with the LLJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of capping was detrimental here. I do find it interesting how Nadocast did fairly well and the analogs were mostly garbage too. (They generally favored Kansas for the biggest tornado threat) One of the stranger evolutions I can recall for a potential higher end day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 The possible tornado has moved SE of Forestburg. I think the velocity and correlation coefficient indicate it's a tornado. Unfortunately it is a bit far out from Fort Worth's radar and I have no other info from storm chasers and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 It was confirmed tornado warning at 10:48 (11:48Eastern). It's possible that a tornado tracked 35-37 miles but I don't know for sure. Quote At 1048 PM CDT, a confirmed tornado was located near Ray Roberts Park Johnson Branch, or near Sanger, moving east at 35 mph. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. TAKE COVER NOW!
