  1. I know Bartlesville, OK is getting engineers on-site to further survey the 2x4’s impaled into a concrete wall at the Hampton Inn. Concerning Barnsdall, there’s questions regarding the few structures wiped clean to the slab. A few of them were mobile homes, but one was thrown a good distance away. One of the structures reduced to slab was not a mobile home though.
  2. Still immature and premature at this point to be screaming bust. It’s very possible the survey teams find additional tornado paths. At this point it makes no sense why some are still screaming bust when a town was destroyed with known fatalities.
  3. I would like to see a side angle of that. That view is not conclusive, very possible it’s propped up behind the tree. TWC and major news outlets have been caught in the past staging/propping up debris to make the scene appear for catastrophic.
  4. Isolated supercell going up SW of OKC near Hobart.
  5. First wave initiated early, before LLJ cranked and helicity values peaked. Those things are happening as I type this….reason why I will say, yet again, the forecast was for 9pm-4am. Midnight is the sweet spot in the timing.
  6. No, not everyone. Just certain people who scream bust before they actually read the forecast details.
  7. Again…come back and scream bust at 4am-5am. Bulk of this threat was forecasted to be nocturnal, around midnight. Some people need to learn basic reading skills and comprehension before posting.
  8. No, it does not. There’s 2 waves of supercells. First wave blows through, second wave overnight is what this whole forecast entices. This High Risk is for overnight/nocturnal activity. Scream bust if there’s no tornadoes in central OK by 5am. Really, the timeframe is looking to be 9pm-4am.
  9. Shouldn’t the thread headline read “5-6-24” instead of “4-6-24”?
  10. This might be the single most violent motion I’ve ever seen documented.
  11. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/4Rkder71fihzG6BF/?mibextid=WC7FNe Reed Timmer intercepted a large tornado just north of Topeka
  12. My understanding is that it is still preliminary. I believe Tim Marshall is going to Elkhorn tomorrow to survey. He was in Marietta today and his findings at the Dollar Tree Distribution Center was the reason that tornado got upgraded to EF4.
  13. Though DOW measurements are not used in the surveys, this is a pretty impressive measurement. DOW measured 224mph winds inside the Harlan, Iowa tornado at its peak Friday night when crossing 59. Seems plausible surface winds were between 170mph-190mph.
  14. 4000+ SBCAPE along the OK/KS border. Latest guidance showing a string of pearls. Supercells maintain separation and intensify as they enter into the Moderate Risk hatched area. Nadocast really starting to go bonkers. Will be interesting to see what the NWS SPC does at next outlook.
  15. Really got a bad feeling about this setup today. Everything seems to be coming together in all the wrong ways.
  16. I absolutely agree with your analysis so far. If storm mode is not messy later today, this environment has the hallmark and look of a classic tornado outbreak. Hard to imagine it surpassing what we seen yesterday. However, the parameter space is more significant. Very possible if things come together this could be a Friday repeat but over a much larger areal capacity.
  17. This shot from Storm Chaser Freddy McKinney, mark my words, will be in the history books. What a monstrous, powerful, and truly violent tornado. Photographed right as it peaked in width and intensity. This shot has Rochelle, Illinois vibes.
  18. Depends on the construction of the house. A poorly constructed house can be leveled by an EF2/EF3.
  19. Tornado intensity sheets can be generated through the NWS and NWS SPC websites. There actually might be some radar software that allows you to generate this. If I’m not mistaken, GR Level can populate this data sheet as well.
  20. Radar estimated intensity for the Bennington/Blair tornado
  21. Minutes ago, looked as if there could of been a trio
  22. Historically violent tornado….images are for the history books
