2026 Mid-Atlantic Severe Storm General Discussion

[NorthArlington101]

I don't like to criticize the NWS but Charleston dropped the T-storm warning and now has this completely unwarned as it approaches a town which just seems really bad and one of the worst misses I've seen when it comes to tornado signatures. It had a better circulation and more lofted debris ball beforehand too! It even had a separate debris ball 30 minutes ago now! 

I’m not convinced that’s a TDS in this radar snapshot at least tho I’m hardly a pro here.

EDIT: looking at the radar loop I think it *was* one at a point before this screenshot but idk if I t think it’s on the ground here. Might be some debris fallout

My point is this storm deserved a Tornado warning at some point in its lifespan.

Days with cool temps usually don't do much severe wx wise in the area. This is 3x this season where they had risk with 50s and 60s and it amounted to nothing.

Concur with that! All good.
