    Tomorrow is shaping up to be a classic severe weather outbreak for PA and NY. You have robust surface heating combined with a dynamic front...terrain aided updrafts could produce some storms pushing classic supercells. I wouldn't be shocked to see a DY1 Moderate risk for parts of PA and NY tomorrow if things come together in the morning.

    I look at weather through the lens of my profession. If I'm interested in an event, it means I'll be working in the EOC. To get excited about something more than 30 to 48 hours out is foolhardy to me in my old age.

    Indeed. The mid level lapse rates are key because it helps sustain the updrafts and therein overcomes the local features (terrain, subtle bay or sea breeze boundary). All of our big events had a strong EML and respectable mid level lapse rates or remnant tropical system (Isabel in 2003, Ivan in 2004).

    Saw a report and pics from Clear Spring, MD of 1.75" hail from that cell. This area can get big hailers when there's a good aid to the updraft. Interestingly enough, that was the same cell which got it's act together and dropped an EF-1 tornado in Lancaster County, PA (injuring 3 people).

    Looks pretty meh to me, but weather in general is less and less interesting to me with each passing season. We haven't had a good storm since the derecho.

    We busted because KFDR didn't go down.

    TOR just issued for the Dickens, TX storm. Really tightening up now.
  11. Eskimo Joe
    Storm just NW of Dicken, TX needs a TOR soon.

    Spotter reporting wall cloud on this cell.

    Crosby County, TX storm starting to show signs of rotation.

    Impressive warm front. Temp is in the upper 40s across the OK panhandle and in the mid 80s along the Red River. Gonna be a few beefy cells today.

    He's a troll from the MA forum. Too much radar interference in his posting.
  19. Eskimo Joe
    Looks like the warm front is going to get hung up along I-40. Sweetwater, OK temp has fallen from 72 to 56 and winds backed to the NW gusting to 15.

    That disco is beautiful.

    Warned for baseball sized hail too, right? Probably riding the warm front itself.
  23. Eskimo Joe
    Per OUN, the cap has all but eroded and initiation is expected shortly.
  24. Eskimo Joe
    Looks like a cell is going up southeast of Lubbock. It's all by itself so if the updraft can sustain then it's off to the races.

    Impressive probabilities....similar to 4/27/11.
