SmokeEater Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0728 NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 0231 PM CDT MON MAY 20 2013 AREAS AFFECTED...CNTRL INTO NERN OK AND SERN KS CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 190...191... VALID 201931Z - 202130Z THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 190...191...CONTINUES. SUMMARY...THE THREAT FOR TORNADOES MAY BE INCREASING OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NERN OK. DISCUSSION...STORMS ARE GRADUALLY FORMING ALONG THE FRONT FROM NWRN TX ACROSS OK AND INTO SERN KS. SPECIAL SOUNDINGS ACROSS THE AREA...AS WELL AS PROFILER DATA INDICATE A VEER-BACK PATTERN BETWEEN 850 AND 700 MB ESPECIALLY FROM NRN TX INTO SRN OK. THIS WEAKNESS IN THE HODOGRAPH MAY INHIBIT THE DEVELOPMENT OF ROBUST ROTATION UNTIL LATER IN THE AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...IN THE SHORT TERM...WIND PROFILES CURRENTLY APPEAR TO BE MORE FAVORABLE FOR ROTATION FROM CNTRL/NERN OK INTO SERN KS...WITH 0-1 SRH OF 100-150 M2/S2. IN ADDITION...CLEARING HAS ALLOWED FOR A ROBUST CU FIELD GENERALLY E OF I-35 AND N OF I-40...WHERE THICK STRATUS PREVIOUSLY EXISTED. DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND EXTREME INSTABILITY PROFILES WILL FAVOR RAPID INTENSIFICATION AND STORMS MAY CHANGE CHARACTER QUICKLY AS THEY TRAVEL NEWD ACROSS A VERY MOIST WARM SECTOR WITH LOCALLY BACKED SFC WINDS. ..JEWELL.. 05/20/2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye05 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Can't say I dig the close proximity of the cells, could result in merging/general messiness. We'll just have to see how this develops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowGoose69 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Can't say I dig the close proximity of the cells, could result in merging/general messiness. We'll just have to see how this develops There is definitely enough room between them as of now, there were a few outbreaks in May 2010 where the proximity of the cells was closer than this.

We'll just have to see how this develops Yeah, if there's anything the last two days have taught us, it's how easily supercellular-looking storms can transition into an outflow dominant MCS. We'll see what happens here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SluggerWx Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Visible shows a pretty good picture of what's going on - explosive growth - and it's amazing that those cells south of OK look to all be separate on the visible satellite - and squeezed right next to each other.
