OceanStWx Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Hail is big enough that it is not only sending a hail spike down radial but across radials as well (to the west). Tornado warning for that cell now, velocity still looks a little muddled to me, but large hail can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indystorm Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Something tells me Topeka and KC will have to increase the 20% precip probabilities in their point forecasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Tornado warning for that cell now, velocity still looks a little muddled to me, but large hail can do that. tough with the closest radar shooting right through the hail core.. that thing blew right in the center of that area that looked hot earlier. nice to see.

To me it looks a lot more like the screaming velocities you can see with hail contamination rather than a true meso. No doubt there is one in there (I am also only looking at LNX not other radars since bandwith is limited here at the WFO). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L.B. LaForce Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Well that cell didnt last long..at least the wall cloud didnt. It's pretty much gone now, and the cell is really disorganized. Head south maybe?? hmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indystorm Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Storms in KS are strengthening and capable of producing pea size hail now. Expected to intensify as they head to Junction City area and will probably have a warning soon per special weather statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan Wood Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Looks like some broad rotation trying to tighten up just west of Imperial, NE. Also, possible tornado over I-76 in NE Colorado....that's not a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*IndyMeso* Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Well that cell didnt last long..at least the wall cloud didnt. It's pretty much gone now, and the cell is really disorganized. Head south maybe?? hmm I was watching your stream of the wall cloud and you're right it didnt last very long, but you had a great shot of it when it did appear. As for heading south, if you go now you might be able to catch the back side of the some cells. Where do you think your next location will be?

L.B. LaForce Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 What area are you in LB? I was just north of I-80 on the cell northeast of North Platte. Dropping south now. I wont even mention the tor watch in KS. I was gonna play that area, but thought it was too risky. Now its going to be a wedgefest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold214 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Probably have a nice look at a wall cloud just north of town. Ob at Akron, CO is still pretty damn good...ie...east wind and a 57 dew...I think NE CO is still in the game for a relatively late show...we'll see. However, so far that area has underperformed.
