Greenwald Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 From the scanner it sounds like there's a lot of damage in the Evansville area and Warrick County. Took quite awhile to get a proper warning on that one too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenwald Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 What a day.. I'm surprised they didn't go with moderate at some point. Even at 20z it was obvious something was up. Evansville fire and EMA were talking on the radio about watching Ryan Hall trying to figure out where the tornado was. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been a long time since OH valley has been the center of the action; I ken when I was young tornado alley included IL, IN, OH. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye_wx Posted Wednesday at 11:57 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:57 PM The SPC put out a meso discussion this afternoon for southeast Iowa into northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin, which included an 80% chance of a watch, which seemed odd. They were focusing on a band of cumulus through this area. However, the area is capped and no models have been predicting anything around here, only northern and western Iowa tonight. Nothing ever developed and the cumulus faded away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing ever developed and the cumulus faded away. To be fair, there was one severe cell that did go up. I'm pretty sure it hinged upon surface convergence along the outflow / differential heating boundary from the early day MCS in Northern WI / MI being sufficient enough for widespread initiation, and it was close as several other cells did attempt to go up. But hey, it happens. And it just shows how sensitive the potential is in such a moisture-laden / high instability / weakly capped environment.

Eh, I just double checked and the cap on the 18z DVN sounding was weak at best. It was really an issue of nebulous forcing if anything. The convergence from the outflow boundary simply wasn't enough to overcome the weak cap for widespread development. It could have easily gone the other way had surface convergence ended up a bit stronger. Now, the 80% probability given for a watch was way too presumptuous (a MD for isolated coverage, which did happen, would have been better), I'll grant that. But the potential was there and their discussion did a good job delving into the backgroud environment that existed. The thing too is, there will be more conditional / low-predictability opportunities like this all throughout the weekend. Above all though, this MD was nowhere near as bad as the Broyles one a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
