jojo762 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Weather Channel has become useless Talking about half inch hail in IL CNN has actually been great today covering this... They're just using KFOR's stream for the most part... They have had great live shots all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VALID 192327Z - 200030Z THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 181...182...CONTINUES. SUMMARY...INTENSE TORNADO THREAT WILL CONTINUE OVER CNTRL OK EXTENDING NEWD INTO NERN OK AND SERN KS. DISCUSSION...RADAR MOSAIC SHOWS SEVERAL DISCRETE SUPERCELLS FROM SERN KS ON THE SRN END OF A SQUALL LINE WITH ANOTHER CLUSTER OF DISCRETE SUPERCELLS FROM 35 MI W OF TUL...5 NNW CQB...AND 25 ESE OF OKC. KTLX VWP SHOWED A PRONOUNCED SICKLE SHAPED HODOGRAPH /350 M2/S2 0-1 KM SRH/ WITH A MARKED INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL SHEAR PRIOR TO THE PASSAGE OF THE NOW CONFIRMED TORNADIC SUPERCELL. VERY INTENSE ROTATIONAL VELOCITIES WITH THE CLEVELAND COUNTY/POTTAWATOMIE COUNTY STORM...COMBINED WITH A FAVORABLE CONVECTIVE MODE AND NEAR-STORM ENVIRONMENT...WILL LIKELY YIELD A HIGH PROBABILITY FOR CONTINUED CYCLING OF INTENSE TORNADOES DOWNSTREAM OF THIS STORM. THE 105 KT ROTATIONAL VELOCITY AT 0.5 DEG AS OF 2320Z...IS HIGHLY INDICATIVE OF A VERY INTENSE/POTENTIALLY VIOLENT TORNADO WITH THIS STORM. FARTHER NE OVER NERN OK...KINX VWP SHOWS 50 KT SLY FLOW AT 1 KM AGL. ALTHOUGH THE HODOGRAPH STRUCTURE IS NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS KTLX...300 M2/S2 0-1 KM SRH WILL MORE THAN SUPPORT THE THREAT FOR LONG-LIVED SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF DAMAGING TORNADOES. ..SMITH.. 05/19/2013 ATTN...WFO...TSA...ICT...OUN...
