thewxmann Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I wouldn't expect these cells to produce anything significant/long-lived (other than brief tornadoes) for another hour or so because the VBV in the lower to mid levels is just so stubborn. I do expect things to change later on, but right now I foresee some more mergers. Currently the Jackson Co. cell is stubbornly but tenuously holding on to its discrete mode in an otherwise somewhat messy mixed storm environment. Honestly, with what's going on near Elmer, OK, not a good time to post this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
