SluggerWx Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 TOR warned storm headed towards College Station, TX. Possible debris sig on 2-4 frames on that cell headed towards College Station.

tornadotony Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Looking at the 18z sounding from OUN, it looks like the culprit for the messy storm structure (and lack of tornadoes) today may have been some backing in the midlevels. That can often cause precip to fall into updrafts and create a messy quasi-discrete storm mode (as what happened with 5/24/11). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I respect Reed a great deal, but I sure hope he rethinks saying "historic tornado outbreak" over Iowa 4 days ago. Too much group think these days. Add in a quiet year and it was a perfect storm for expecting way too much. Though, here it was generally quite measured. If Brett's not excited... don't get excited.

wxmeddler Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Reports continue to suggest rain wrapped TOR in Burleson County heading into Brazos County (Bryan/College Station area) Brian is right in the path of this cell.. The cell will continue to have the chance to produce as the low level winds are directed right into the inflow notch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmeddler Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I doubt that storm will come back. the updraft is zoinked. Forgot to look at echo tops... yeah your right Ian, as soon as it occluded once it's becoming elevated and not tapping into that low level gulf moisture. It's "zoinked". Still I would imagine if you were in College Station at this hour there would be some nice swirly scud clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettjrob Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Looking at the 18z sounding from OUN, it looks like the culprit for the messy storm structure (and lack of tornadoes) today may have been some backing in the midlevels. That can often cause precip to fall into updrafts and create a messy quasi-discrete storm mode (as what happened with 5/24/11). Good catch there. In this case, it looks as if the strongly-veered LLJ may have carried multiple negative side effects. Interesting sounding, because typically I've seen this "problem" occur higher up -- e.g., more backed at 250 mb than 500 mb. There's little doubt that the wind profile itself simply wasn't supportive of discrete tornadic supercells today. With the initial line around 1-2pm, it might have been plausible that too many cells fired in too close proximity and storm motion was too parallel to the initiating boundary. Later on, though, numerous more isolated cells developed over the open warm sector and would still take on the "messy" structure within 30-45 min.
