Memphis Weather Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 SPC update...definitely sounding more pessimistic but obviously tornado threat remains... THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 170 CONTINUES. LONG-LIVED...MODESTLY FAST MOVING SUPERCELLS WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED STRONG TORNADOES WILL PERSIST THIS EVENING. SEVERAL DISCRETE SUPERCELLS CONTINUE MOVE NORTHEASTWARD AROUND 30 KT...THROUGH THE OPEN WARM SECTOR OF THE DEEPENING CYCLONE CENTERED OVER THE HIGH PLAINS. MID-LEVEL FORCING FOR UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION REMAINS WEAK/UNCERTAIN ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA AND CENTRAL/EASTERN KANSAS...AND INHIBITION FOR BOUNDARY LAYER PARCELS MAY BEGIN TO INCREASE SOME WITH SURFACE COOLING. HOWEVER...BENEATH DIFLUENT AND AT LEAST WEAKLY DIVERGENT HIGH LEVEL FLOW...STORM-SCALE DYNAMICS MAY BE STRONG ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN ACTIVITY INTO AT LEAST THE 02-04Z TIME FRAME. CELLS APPEAR GENERALLY FOCUSED ALONG THE INTENSIFYING LOW-LEVEL JET AXIS /50-70 KT AT 850 MB/...WHERE ENLARGING CLOCKWISE CURVED LOW-LEVEL HODOGRAPHS WILL STILL SUPPORT THE RISK FOR STRONG TORNADOES. THE HIGHEST TORNADIC POTENTIAL MAY BE WITH CELLS DEVELOPING NORTHEASTWARD FROM NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS...NEAR/SOUTH OF WICHITA...ASSOCIATED WITH INFLOW OF AT LEAST A BIT MORE MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR THAN CELLS FARTHER NORTH. OTHERWISE...NW STORM DEVELOPMENT WILL CONTINUE BACK TO THE WEST ALONG THE DRY LINE ACROSS THE HIGHER PLAINS...WHICH HAS ACTUALLY RETREATED WESTWARD SOME THE PAST HOUR OR TWO.
