Thundersnow12 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Thanks, his dialogue over there for just a couple of minutes was very informative. He said there would be some tornadoes but the parameters just didn't look right for any more than an isolated strong tornado and seemed to want to downplay the threat today. He wasn't doing the SPC forecast at 1630. This information is not inappropriate to pass along I hope since it was at a .com/chaser site? no not at all. storm near Fayette, MS will have to be watched.
