Jan 22nd/23rd Severe Weather Outbreak

Recommended Posts

Too many narrow polygons being issued for marginal circulations. They are

interlocking and becoming very confusing as different storms are crossing in

and out every few minutes. Makes it tough for the public to follow.

The one legimate-looking TOR storm is the one I have been watching for about

an hour which moved through Maury City and is now east of Dyersburg.

Agreed. The storms the Memphis TV guys are discussing look more like stright line winds.
