Harry Perry Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Epic bust up here. I can't remember a time we've been placed under a moderate risk, had a PDS tornado watch, and it ALL BUSTED. Epic failure west of Detroit and north of Fort Wayne. Off to great severe weather season to match the following snowless winter lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Today has been a pretty good example of early convection modulating the rest of the day. I don't think many if any models had the morning line getting as far east as quickly as it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowMeHunter Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 DVN with an lo ****ing l worthy disco... THURSDAY...HEAVY RAIN TO CONTINUE INTO THE MORNING AS MAIN DEEP TROUGH AND STRONG COLD FRONT ARRIVE FROM THE WEST. SURFACE LOW THEN BEGINS DEEPENING AS IT TRACKS TO NEAR MILWAUKEE BY EVENING. TIMING OF THE STRONG COLD FRONT WILL BE CRITICAL IN REGARDS TO WHEN A MAJOR TORNADO OUTBREAK BEGINS TO DEVELOP. AT THIS POINT IT APPEARS THE FRONT SHOULD PUSH JUST TO THE EAST OF THE DVN CWA KEEPING THE MAIN OUTBREAK TO OUR EAST AND SOUTH. HOWEVER...THE GFS IS A BIT SLOWER AND THEREFORE OUR EASTERN COUNTIES MAY GET IN ON THE START OF THE OUTBREAK. HAVE PUSHED TEMPERATURES INTO THE LOWER 70S IN OUR FAR EASTERN COUNTIES AHEAD OF THE FRONT. had to read this dandy again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Great Zo Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Today has been a pretty good example of early convection modulating the rest of the day. I don't think many if any models had the morning line getting as far east as quickly as it did. Several HRRR runs overnight were doing just that, and actually even more so than what happened (they had legitimate convection entering Ohio by 20Z). At the very least, it was an indication that the pre-frontal activity was not going to be well organized. The whole setup is still going to pivot before the actual cold front arrives, but it's hard to see high-end potential out of that with all the junk out in front.

Powerball Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 It's mid-April. We're not even in the heart of severe weather season yet. A severe weather event busting in mid-April is the equivalent of a run-of-the-mill snowstorm busting in November, small potatoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on_wx Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Environment Canada is confirming a tornado of at least EF1 strength touched down in northern Dufferin County 60 miles NW of Toronto during last nights storms. Official report will come later today as the investigation is ongoing. http://toronto.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=909019&playlistId=1.1244879&binId=1.815892&playlistPageNum=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisale Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Confirmed EF1 tornado in Shelburne, ON. First tornado for all of Canada in 2013, and the first tornado in Canada to be officially rated using the Enhanced Fujita scale. 708 AWCN11 CWTO 191928 UPDATED WEATHER SUMMARY FOR ALL OF SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND THE NATIONAL CAPITAL REGION ISSUED BY ENVIRONMENT CANADA AT 3:21 PM EDT FRIDAY 19 APRIL 2013. ------------------------------------------------------------- ==WEATHER EVENT DISCUSSION== ..FIRST TORNADO OF THE SEASON IN ONTARIO CONFIRMED.. AT APPROXIMATELY 5:45 PM EDT ON THURSDAY, APRIL 18, A STRONG LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS MOVED THROUGH THE SHELBURNE AREA TO THE NORTHWEST OF TORONTO. BASED ON A DAMAGE SURVEY BY ENVIRONMENT CANADA PERSONNEL, ONE OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCED A BRIEF ENHANCED FUJITA (EF) 1 TORNADO APPROXIMATELY 6 KILOMETRES TO THE NORTHWEST OF SHELBURNE. AN EF-1 TORNADO HAS PEAK WINDS BETWEEN 135 AND 175 KILOMETRES PER HOUR. THE KEY DAMAGE NOTED AT THIS SCENE WAS A BARN WITH ITS ROOF AND TWO WALLS REMOVED WITH SOME PIECES OF THE BARN FIRMLY EMBEDDED INTO THE GROUND AT A DISTANCE OF 50 TO 100 METRES FROM THE ORIGINAL LOCATION. THE TOTAL LENGTH OF THE DAMAGE PATH WAS 500 METRES WITH A WIDTH OF 75 METRES. INVESTIGATIONS ARE CONTINUING IN THIS AREA THAT MAY RESULT IN THE LENGTH AND WIDTH OF THE DAMAGE TRACK CHANGING OR OF THE POSSIBILITY OF OTHER TORNADOES. THIS STATEMENT WILL BE UPDATED AS NEW INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE. THIS IS THE FIRST TORNADO OF THE SEASON, NOT ONLY IN ONTARIO BUT IN ALL OF CANADA. THE SUMMER SEVERE WEATHER SEASON NORMALLY BEGINS IN LATE APRIL AND ENDS IN EARLY OCTOBER. ONTARIO SEES AN AVERAGE OF 12 TORNADOES EACH YEAR. THIS TORNADO ALSO REPRESENTS THE FIRST TORNADO IN CANADA TO BE RATED USING THE ENHANCED FUJITA (EF) SCALE AS OPPOSED TO THE ORIGINAL FUJITA SCALE. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ADOPTED THE EF SCALE IN 2007 AND ENVIRONMENT CANADA HAS MONITORED ITS USE SINCE THAT TIME AND HAS DECIDED TO ALSO ADOPT THIS SCALE BEGINNING THIS YEAR. THE TYPES OF DAMAGE PRODUCED BY TORNADOES ON EITHER THE ENHANCED FUJITA SCALE OR THE ORIGINAL FUJITA SCALE ARE SIMILAR. HOWEVER, THE WIND SPEEDS OF THE VARIOUS CATEGORIES HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED BASED ON THE BEST AVAILABLE KNOWLEDGE CONCERNING THE WINDS REQUIRED TO DAMAGE STRUCTURES, VEHICLES AND TREES. THIS WEATHER SUMMARY CONTAINS PRELIMINARY INFORMATION AND MAY NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFICIAL OR FINAL REPORT. END/OSPC CLICK HERE TO GO TO PREVIOUS BULLETINS.
