vortex95 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It's just eating up all the shear along the warm front. You don't need a lot of CAPE when you have a boundary like that. Respect the boundary for its low level shear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeEater Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Ohhhh that explains a lot. Didn't realize there could be 3 rounds to this thing. That's why you need to post less, and observe and learn more, no offense. People have been saying all day, including SPC, that there would be multiple rounds to this, and the main show would come later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
