Disc Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Looks like the convection on the tail end of the Little Rock cell choked it off before it could really get going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUmet Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I would watch any sustained discrete cells that break out of the activity in central and northern LA for the best significant tornado threat down the road. This will be better juxtaposed with the instability axis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VALID 300131Z - 300330Z THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 10 CONTINUES. SUMMARY...DAMAGING WIND/TORNADO THREATS SHOULD CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN ASSOCIATION WITH SEMI-DISCRETE TSTM BANDS. COORDINATION WITH WFO MEM/JAN WILL OCCUR SHORTLY OVER ADDITIONAL AREAL EXTENSION OF WW 10 OR NEW DOWNSTREAM WW ISSUANCE. DISCUSSION...SUPERCELL STRUCTURES HAVE BEEN NOTED WITH A BAND OF SEMI-DISCRETE TSTMS NOW JUST E OF THE MS RIVER. THIS ACTIVITY HAS PERSISTED ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF MORE ROBUST BUOYANCY AS SAMPLED BY 00Z LZK/SHV/LCH RAOBS. DOWNSTREAM 00Z JAN AND A SPECIAL MS STATE SOUNDING FROM CLARKSDALE MS SAMPLED MORE MEAGER BUOYANCY WITH A DRIER BOUNDARY LAYER DESPITE LOWER 60S SURFACE DEW POINTS. ALTHOUGH THIS SHOULD LIMIT THE AMPLITUDE AND ERN EXTENT OF THE THREAT IN THE NEAR-TERM...RISING SURFACE DEW POINTS HAVE BEEN NOTED IN THE PAST HOUR AT KTVR/KHEZ ALONG THE MS/LA BORDER. GIVEN THE VERY FAVORABLE HODOGRAPHS FOR UPDRAFT ROTATION AND STRENGTHENING LARGE-SCALE ASCENT...A E/NEWD EXPANSION OF DAMAGING WIND/TORNADO POTENTIAL IN CONCERT WITH INCREASING DESTABILIZATION SHOULD CONTINUE. ..GRAMS/HART.. 01/30/2013 ATTN...WFO...MEG...JAN...

SluggerWx Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 This is turning into a significant evening - in line with what SPC has called to this point. I'm pretty fearful for what's going on right now in LA, and I really don't want to see what happens when this stuff hits MS overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
