Geos Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Channel 9 is talking about the other storm to the southwest of Woodward. Not tornadic, but severe nonetheless. From snowlovers map: On google earth there is some new housing developments on the west side of town, which channel 9 is now talking about. Cheyenne Drive they are talking about is just north of Rt. 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWeather Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Listening to live feed here. http://www.news9.com/Global/category.asp?C=207228&BannerId=436 Looks like some very bad damage in Woodward. Looks to be a town of 12k residents. Hope everyone is okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernNJ Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 There's still an 81 kt couplet on the Salina cell, just north of Verdi right now. It's now too well defined, but it makes me nervous with only a SVR out. Just a few frames ago it looked like the tornadic potential in that cell was dead. You are certainly correct, the storm has re-intensified and has a meso again. Could go north of the Manhattan KS area. We'll see if they upgrade or not.
