downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Cell near Reidsville is close to having a legit couplet with it but its done it a few times and not been able to hold it together.....still don't be surprised to see a tor warning on it soon if it keeps up.

Hvward Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Yep cell south of Reidville could have a tad of debris on CC. Gone now was just one scan that the blue centered with the couplet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Sucks we can get a better look at those cells near Charlotte the one east of Charlotte looks to be getting better rotation but at the range I am looking its gonna be mid level and might not be nearly that good near the surface....

It really isn't that bad none of the ones in the triangle are really, some crappy mid level lapse rates and mid level dry air maybe keeping them from getting going, very pulsey and not at all as organized as the true super cells out west in NC and SC....

Looks like the storms are blowing up but should pass just to my north if I'm lucky enough. That cell just NE of Concord is pretty nasty, I forget exactly where you are but it is the one to watch in the Charlotte area right ATM then there is another pretty good looking cell headed for Gastonia and Clover that should be in Charlotte in a hr or so..... Also the one south of Greenville headed for Gray Court might be trying to produce a tornado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 actually that cell headed for Clover just took a nasty look on velocities, if that small storm to its south doesn't cut it off it might become a problem for Charlotte...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICEHOCEY77 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Cell heading toward Charlotte is starting to get it's act together. Couplet velocity is starting to increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Yep Brad P about to be live on air here in a second if that cell doesn't quit real damn quick.....someone post the live feed when he does EDIT: maybe not that cell to the south seems to be about to choke off the inflow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the one south of Greenville headed for Gray Court might be trying to produce a tornado I'm closer to Pineville and working in downtown. Yea guess the images I was getting were old, switched to CAE radar and it looks like the cell in York county is about to strike my part of town. Nasty looking cell there.

downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Almost looks like another couplet is trying to form. Yeah maybe a bit SW of the first rotation call it just NE of Smyna...and maybe something just south of Gastonia as well....either way Charlotte looks to get smacked by this complex...I wouldn't be surprised to see them issue a t warning just due to the fact that these couplets will pass over very urban locations.

downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 The cell headed into Charlotte looks to have lost a good deal of its punch, by far the nastiest looking cell out there now is the one headed for Union SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it did get cut off. I think the money cell overall is going to be that cell heading into Union county and eventually Chester/Lancaster county. Dynamics should improve in the next 1-2 hours and doesn't have much to cut it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovingGulfLows Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 That cell just NE of Athens looks scary...either that's hail or a debris cloud...very high dbz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downeastnc Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Cell N of Louisburg getting some rotation with it, and the one approaching Union SC has started to get a pretty good couplet on it....gonna bet that one gets a t warning soon...latest scan says they need to issue a warning looks to head right at Union not sure if its a big town or not....

Brick Tamland Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Nothing but heavy rain for a little while with the storm that came through. Still had the strongest storms so far this spring a couple weeks ago when we didn't have any kind of watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burrel2 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 It appears a tornado touched down in Townville, SC which was just about 4 miles to my south... missed another chance to see one. oh well....
