Feb 28 Severe Storm Threat - Discussion and obs


yoda

Recommended Posts

Pretty ominous shelf cloud overhead right now... even if the storm is "eh."

Going to try to get S eventually...

Outflow is moving way ahead of the line, which is why the storms are weakening. Nothing to do with climo... get that out of your head right now.

the models didnt catch the outflow creating this stuff which is not climo but climo is an issue nonetheless.

False.

May get more into it later...

i'll be eagerly awaiting. like anything else you can't give it full weight but we don't get big severe in feb and we will have a heck of a lot harder time recovering in feb than april. that's climo.

I wouldnt quite give up on anything for later today. It's not like we're going to lose a whole lot of instability. We're relying more on dynamics than anything and we'll still have those as the front moves through. Not expecting an outbreak or anything but storms are still possible. Plus, who doesn't enjoy hours of Mod rain?

we're still better off getting 500-1000 cape compared to being stable. the secondary low looks to go south of us or overhead. we'll get some good rains if we're lucky. se va might do ok still svr wise.

I was hoping for thunderstorms to give a nice birthday present. Well that's out

Yeah, I just went back and looked at the national radar mosaic. depressing. Though I like my richmond call.

I agree. Climo isn't killing a particular line or particular storm but climo makes things harder to happen in late Feb.
