audioguy3107 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I would expect a TOR warning with this cell soon as well although the rotation isn't nearly as strong as the cell earlier. Could just be getting its act together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Most recent scan for those in the Canton area. It's very broad now. Broad is good (as in LESS favorable for tornado), right???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disc Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Broad is good (as in LESS favorable for tornado), right???? Correct. A tight rotation means stronger rotation, thus a higher chance of it producing a tornado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
