icebreaker5221 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Cooling at the upper levels combined with a continued increase in moisture at the low levels should offset surface cooling and keep instability in place for at least a few more hours. Could be quite a while before anything starts to weaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyhb Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Nasty comma-head shaped complex in NE CO there. That supercell in SW NE would almost certainly be putting down something if the low level thermodynamic environment was more favorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeEater Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Former KOCO met on FB isn't impressed with tomorrow at all for OKC. Newest model data coming in, jives with the prior. A few severe storms breaking out along the dryline near hwy 183. For a couple of hours these supercells will produce damaging hail/wind as they move towards I-35. The cold front will quickly approach from the NW and will undercut the storms killing off their supply of warm/unstable air at the surface limiting their severity quite a bit. That means the developing squall line won't be as intense either. Still pockets of hail/wind but not a widespread event. Any isolated tornado threat is very small and would be early with those supercells that develop. Storms would move into the OKC area anytime after 4:30pm. The front should be in close to 7pm.

tornadotony Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I give the odds of there having actually been a tornado outside of Akron with that particular storm at < 0.1%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SluggerWx Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I give the odds of there having actually been a tornado outside of Akron with that particular storm at < 0.1%. Tony I would have said the same thing earlier, too - but, spotters have been on these storms and have reported some being on the ground 10-20 minutes. This is likely the second time Akron is being hit by a TOR in one evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 As I look at tonight's NAM I would favor Norman through Tulsa as a favored area say about 00z-3z tomorrow. Well the NAM has what looks like convection breaking out in E OK by 22z, then making it here by 00z. That's well ahead of the cold front as well.

Ian Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Tornado on that first cell weak even for a land spout based on pics.. really pretty storm but very high based even at production time earlier. But that thing has been going forever now as it chugs away in NE. Kinda like the one yesterday in KS to MO. Looks like it's getting undercut now tho.
