CandymanColumbusGA Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Good lord! That Perry County storm is ridiculous!!! Classic supercell as I have seen since April 27th in the Deep South.... Let's hope this cycles down before it gets close to Clanton... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeEater Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The worst thing is that 3 hours ago, he was saying that it would not be that bad. Nobody saw this coming, all the best parameters were to the west of the areas that got hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope this cycles down before it gets close to Clanton... Appears to be cycling quickly, two very tight circulations simulataneously. Possibly a data artifact there, but definitely looks ready to occlude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebo Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Maplesville in line with that Southern cell, very very intense circulation with that cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewxmann Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 SBCAPE around 1000 J/kg and ESRH between 500-800 m2/s2 with those supercells in AL right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanStWx Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I have to think there are some velocity issues going on there, something just doesn't look right about the really intense values. Large area of really high spectrum width there on the updraft/downdraft interface might be causing some bogus values. Regardless there is still an intense meso.

OceanStWx Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Alright, looks like the next scan cleared it up. Now we're looking at around 135 kts gate to gate, probable debris ball just west of Maplesville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
