Eskimo Joe Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 If you want some real giggles, head on over to the SPC meso analysis and see where the Violent Tornado Parameter (located under Composite Indices) is bullseyed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of SCP/SIGTOR bulls-eye is excellent for this time of year Mid-Atlantic or NEUS. And despite all the clouds and earlier showers, sfc-based CAPE is high w/ the bulls-eye just SE of the metro and a good gradient N suburbs. Current svr storm to the W ride that gradient (boundary)!

A few of the stronger storms will be supercells capable of a risk for tornadoes, damaging gusts, and large hail. A consolidation of storms will probably occur during the evening as one or two line segments develops with an attendant risk for damaging winds and possibly a tornado.
