  1. AKQ Tornado Watch going out now it appears: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0091.html
  2. The cell is still a bit away from the radar site so it's sampling around ~3200 ft AGL. The 0.8° scan isn't terribly impressive so it might be picking up on more of a mid level meso than something closer to the surface. If it persist as it nears the site then perhaps the circulation could justify a TOR.
  3. The SVR warned cell near Brokenburg is tightening up a bit...wouldn't shock me if LWX pulls to TOR trigger.
  4. They're likely next. Their CWA is more under the other meso that @mappy mentioned: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0402.html
  5. Yup. The meso for us is outlined in red too, which seems to be a subtle hint a tornado watch is favored.
  6. Wonder if this is going to be one of those days where things get proactively warned because of transient rotation showing up on radar.
  7. SLGT extended to PA...5% TOR for everyone east of I-81. Seems kinda aggressive given the cloud cover though. https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/archive/2019/day1otlk_20190419_1630.html
  8. For phone spend the $10 and get RadarScope...best $10 you'll ever spend.
  9. Meso fro 80% chance of a watch: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/2019/md0401.html
  10. Impressive damage reports coming out of Sontag...sounds like a fire truck crashed due to trees coming down on or around it on the road.
  11. Looks like the cell east of Rocky Mount is winding down. Seems to be slamming into more stable air in the mountain but no doubt it was on the ground for some time. EDIT: Damage still being reported into RNK east of Rocky Mount. Wonder if they drop another TOR.
  12. I would say that's a "legit" report given how detailed the tweet is and they reiterated that it's believed to have been confirmed.
  13. Red Box going out for NC and VA now until 21:00 UTC: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/watch/ww0088.html
  14. *Maybe* there's the CC Drop? It was there and gone right as it went over Oak Level.
  15. The 0.5° scan is at ~1300 feet but it extends up towards on the 0.9° and 1.3° so it's definitely wound up.
  16. Here comes the box: https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/2019/md0399.html
  17. Heads up Bassett and Stanleytown, VA. Thing looks to be tightening up in the last 2 frames.
  18. 3 TORs in VA/NC...they might need a quick watch box if this first round goes giddy up down there.
