Hoosier Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Just keeps getting uglier. I think there's a shot at a High Risk again, but my guess is that it'll start out as a Moderate Risk again with initial issuance. Back to back to back high risks has only happened once in the past 15 years...May 3-5, 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernNJ Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Yet another supercell, this time south of Oneonta. May get warned soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkhorn Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Any thoughts on the new warning near Knoxville? Have some family there. WBIR is being very irresponsible and saying it's only a 'broad rotation' and you don't need to take cover. Yet they just now mentioned 10 minutes ago a funnel cloud was spotted. But oh no that's not a tornado on the ground. That's not a responsible thing to say WBIR. Keep tabs on it and take cover if you need to. I see a hook echo on the radar.

MississippiWx Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 So what is the deal for tomorrow? I've seen people say it could compare to today's outbreak, but I'm thinking that's not true due to the fact that NWS offices aren't really talking it up that much. I'm in the middle of the moderate risk, yet our NWS office (JAN) hasn't made any updates about the risk like they normally do before a big event. There just doesn't seem to be much chatter about it considering its a moderate risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomBlue Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Very violent Louisville, MS tornado via Basehunters. So nice of them to stop next to a house that just got hit, then ignore them and floor it to try and catch up to the storm instead of stopping to see if anyone needed help.

You're talking about two people who ended up on The Weather Channel last night because a videographer filmed them pulling people out of cars on I-40 northwest of Little Rock seconds after the tornado passed through.

David Reimer Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I agree that's a good thing, but it certainly does nothing for the people in that house. How do you know they didn't go back to the house right after the video stopped? I'm good friends with both chasers and know for a fact they would drop their cameras instantly to go help someone in need. If this were any other chaser I would agree with you (some are in it just for the money from video sales). In this case though I'll have to disagree.
