stormitecture Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Just a quick update from the road. @ellinwood and I are on the road, I-95 south, passing around Fredericksburg, VA now. Targeting VA/NC border first, try for further south, pending latest review/runs. I'm working on getting us up on spotter network, but GPS connector is rusty and I had not fixed it yet. Might try to do tracking via RadarScope. Never done it, so just have to figure out how. I'll be tweeting too (see the sig for the link). Skies are already clearing here and outside temp according to car is 73°f . Don't know the dew pt. though (no wx station). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A WARM/UNSTABLE SECTOR WILL CONTINUE TO EXPAND NORTHWARD TOWARD NRN VA AND SRN MD THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT CURRENTLY CROSSING THE APPALACHIANS. CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONT AND INCREASING PRE-FRONTAL LARGE-SCALE ASCENT -- INDICATED BY SFC PRESSURE FALLS AROUND 2 MB PER 2 HRS -- WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT CONVECTION BOTH ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT. A VERY STRONG MID-LEVEL JET CORE CROSSING THE REGION WILL CONTRIBUTE TO EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR MAGNITUDES EXCEEDING 60 KT...WHICH WILL PROMOTE BANDS AND CLUSTERS OF FAST-MOVING THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS. WITH 0-1-KM BULK SHEAR MAGNITUDES OF 30-45 KT...TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE...PARTICULARLY IN ASSOCIATION WITH ANY LEWP PATTERNS AND CONVECTION WELL IN ADVANCE OF THE FRONT WHERE SFC WINDS ARE SOMEWHAT MORE BACKED RELATIVE TO THE WLY FLOW ALOFT. UNCERTAINTY IN THE NRN EXTENT OF THE UNSTABLE SECTOR EXISTS...AS WELL AS THE IMPACT OF MID/HIGH CLOUDS OVER CNTRL/ERN NC AND NERN SC. HOWEVER...IN BOTH INSTANCES...INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED TO BE SUFFICIENT...GIVEN THE MAGNITUDE OF FORCING FOR ASCENT...SUCH THAT A SVR/TORNADO THREAT WILL LIKELY EVOLVE. ..COHEN.. 02/24/2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
