this forum is dead today. lol. i wanna chat severe weather. wake up!

Per Forbes on FB: MONDAY Severe thunderstorm and tornado outbreak in central and east TX as far south as Austin and Houston, central and east OK, AR, northwest LA, extreme southeast KS, central and south MO, central and south IL, north, central, and southwest IN, northwest OH. This is ALOT different than the SPC and what Henry's map is showing

Henry's map for outbreak next week I really don't know what to expect from this outbreak anymore. I think his map needs to be shifted north. Both the SPC and him are so far south. This low is going to track a lot farther north than previous systems. There seems to be a lot of disagreement

this year has actually been a record La Nina....

haha. yes he is. but trust me, he def uses models. impossible to forecast accurate without them

exactly my thinking. the anticipation is killing me. lol. i want to know how far i got to travel after class to see some severe weather

i thought the 12z Euro was faster than GFS? i could have sworn i saw the low in extreme NE Iowa by 12z Tues on Euro. and the GFS had it in central iowa. i could be mistaken. new Euro will be out in a few hrs and 0z GFS is in the process of coming out

I would really like to know what model he is basing that forecast off of

Yep! He just said that in an article on Accuweather on Tuesday. Pretty much non-stop outbreaks for a while now.

Thank you! Enjoying the forums so far! This year is very similar to 2003. Locked in pattern of frequent storms and strong jet stream. Was 2003 a strong La Nina year?

Per Dr. Greg Forbes Facebook Page: Mon Apr 25. Severe thunderstorm and tornado outbreak in east half KS, central and east OK, central TX as far south as San Antonio, northeast TX, west and north AR, MO, southeast IA, IL, IN, south MI, west OH, extreme west KY.Dr. Forbes FB Page Not sure what model he is favoring. Per GFS the low and warm front dont surge through my area till Tues. From the 12z run on GFS, the warm front has made it to south Wisconsin. I am in west central Illinois. the low is in central Iowa by 18z. I am hoping the system does slow down and times for Monday because I can't chase till after 3pm Tues. haha

hey guys! I just joined today! i am a member on accuweather forums to but this seems a lot more professional. i like it. but i totally agree, this system has the makings of a major outbreak. this is a large scale trough and is strongly negatively tilted. plenty of moisture will be able to advect well ahead of the trough. also with a neg tilt, more favorable shear and upper level dynamics will be more prone to cross into the warm sector. if the upper level forcing can pass over the cold front perpendicular, we can get more upper level turning. currently based on GFS, the turning looks to be confined to the lowest few kilometers. that is favorable for quick spin ups but for long track supercells and tornadoes you need deep rooted directional shear
