stormitecture Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Do you have a link to your GPS chase map? Same as my sig: http://www.weatherwarrior.net/tV.html. Not streaming video (YET), but there is two tracking maps...one which is bigger and below the video. Just look around the page. Streaming is going to be iffy today in the mountains. might have to set the quality a little low. Not much 3g out in WV. In fact...Sprint is kinda non-existent in WV. Be prepared for some dense fog on Big Savage Mtn, it is nasty The fog has been nasty fun. Not great to drive in, but the visuals along the mountain peaks has been nice. I wish I had time to get tripoded video of it...but I only shot a little of it from the car. We have no just recently broken out of the cold-air damming (up almost 15 degress in about as many miles). Also seeing some blue sky...must be burning off nicely. More later...once in Morgantown area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadgerWXman Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Just snapped this 3D shot of a monster hail core east of Wilmington, OH. 60+ dbz core showing... yellow line is 0ºC, red line is -20ºC for those not familiar with the program. One of the nicest looking hail cores I've seen in a while.. wouldn't be surprised to get some reports of 2-3" stones in western Ross co, OH. We'll see if I'm right or not...

Riptide Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Getting a tad brighter out here now. Clearing off to my west The weenie radar looks more attractive than usual. I wonder what will happen to all of that epicness when it hits the stable layer east of the blue ridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinwood Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 On I79 just south of the split with I68... taking a break and watching the storms produce a few bolts here and there overhead (nothing special). Going to head south on a bit to get ready for the OH cells. Jason's laptop/nav and I'm at the wheel... posting from the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A TORNADO THREAT...LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE LIKELY WITH THE STRONGER CORES. A WW WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED SOON ACROSS THE REGION. SCATTERED SEVERE STORMS ARE CURRENTLY LOCATED IN THE NRN AND WRN PART OF TORNADO WATCH 55. THE STORMS ARE LOCATED TO THE SOUTHWEST OF A SFC LOW ALONG AN AXIS OF MODERATE INSTABILITY. DESTABILIZATION HAS TAKEN PLACE FURTHER EAST ACROSS WV AND FAR SW PA WHERE MLCAPE VALUES ARE NOW ESTIMATED IN THE 1000 TO 1200 J/KG RANGE. THIS COMBINED WITH STRONG DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND SUBSTANTIAL LOW-LEVEL SHEAR WILL BE SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELLS THIS AFTERNOON. COLD TEMPS ALOFT WITH STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED VERY LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE MORE DOMINANT SUPERCELL STORMS.

Well isn't the warm front nearby? That might help in the tornado risk... the STW seemed to think that the elevated hailers would be in S PA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
