Lol guys it barely rained here. We missed everything somehow. Only 0.11. It was an interesting 45 minutes though.

 

How disappointing.  I was looking forward to a report that began, "This is Metal, reporting to you from somewhere over the Atlantic."

MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0380

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

0311 PM CDT SUN APR 19 2015

AREAS AFFECTED...SOUTH CAROLINA INTO THE PIEDMONT OF NORTH CAROLINA

CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 79...

VALID 192011Z - 192215Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 79 CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTIVELY GENERATED DAMAGING WIND

GUSTS/ISOLATED TORNADOES MAY STILL INCREASE THROUGH 23-00Z ACROSS

PARTS OF THE CAROLINAS...PERHAPS INCLUDING THE CHARLOTTE

NC...COLUMBIA SC...AND CHARLESTON SC AREAS. TRENDS ARE BEING

MONITORED FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ADDITIONAL WATCH ACROSS

DOWNSTREAM PORTIONS OF NORTH CAROLINA.

DISCUSSION...VIGOROUS CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT...IN A LINE AHEAD OF AN

ASSOCIATED WEAK MID-LEVEL IMPULSE...AND BELT OF MODERATE

SOUTHWESTERLY DEEP LAYER MEAN FLOW...LIKELY WILL CONTINUE

NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF SOUTH CAROLINA AND THE

NORTH CAROLINA PIEDMONT THROUGH 23-00Z. NORTHEASTWARD PROPAGATION

IS AROUND 30 KT...INTO A PROGRESSIVELY MORE STABLE ENVIRONMENT.

HOWEVER...A BREAK IN CLOUD COVER AND PRECIPITATION IMMEDIATELY AHEAD

OF IT IS ALLOWING FOR A WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR FURTHER

DESTABILIZATION. THE WARMING INFLOW ENVIRONMENT WILL BE FAIRLY

MOIST...WITH SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE MID 60S TO NEAR 70F.

AND...WITH THE LATEST RAPID REFRESH SUGGESTING SOME STRENGTHENING OF

SOUTHERLY 850 MB FLOW FROM 30 TO 40 KT...ATOP A BACKED AMBIENT

SURFACE COMPONENT FROM THE SOUTHEAST...ENLARGING LOW-LEVEL

HODOGRAPHS COULD STILL SUPPORT AN INCREASING RISK FOR MESOVORTICES

WITH POTENTIALLY DAMAGING SURFACE GUSTS AND/OR TORNADOES

Two circulations embedded in that line   ;)   Looks to stay just to my northwest, but it's getting a little too close for my comfort....lol

Did they let the Tornado warning on that north rotation drop? Looks kinda decent to me.....also looks like there could be something just west of Lexington

They did....only to reissue it once it got near fairfield co   :)    The southern rotation (near redbank) was 3 miles to my northwest   :lol:   I did get a small wind gust as the line passed threw   :wub:   My firefighter friends in Calhoun Co are on a call Sunny Plains(close to hwy 21) where 3 houses (together) have some damage and there is a family trapped in one of them. They are saying possible tornado, but I don't remember seeing any rotation to my southwest while I was checking out the storms :unsure:
