jhamps10 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I've been keeping my eyes locally on the line near Abilene, as a lot of reports today thus far had said that storms would stay north of DFW... looks like the line in Abilene has different plans in mind, could bring some heavy rains if nothing else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebo Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 The cell SE of Decatur really has my interest, 2 cells just completed a merger and now a hook is forming on the SW side of the storm, with a couplet forming as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokey_mountain_vols Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Don't be sad about today, tomorrow and Saturday are when you'll all get to watch all of western and central Oklahoma be ravished.

SouthernNJ Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Very strong circulation on the terminal doppler DFW with the tornado, about 6 miles NW of Krum and should move just west of Sanger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torchageddon Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 The 5/24/11 event had some veer-back-veer concerns as well, though they were more subtle than this event if I recall correctly. Things got pretty messy in N OK/S KS on that day. I was just thinking about 5/24/11 earlier and how it compares to this one. I re-read that topic and generally it was a setup without any shortcomings except VBV. Did that issue effect how long the significant tornadoes stayed on the ground that were occurring in central OK? Yesterday kind of already did to a degree, at least in terms of a legit, prolific Plains day. Bigger things ahead though. Two things I disliked about yesterday that I don't want to see coming up: HP/rainwrapped supercells with tornadoes and only 1 long lasting tornado (don't care for those up and down spinups). I forget what parameter foreshadows whether supercells that form are mainly HP or LP, and how far out that can be known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
