Quincy Posted April 9, 2017 Author Share Posted April 9, 2017 Can't get a real good feel on today's "threat" beyond the fact that it's conditional. If a storm goes up anywhere from south-central Kansas to Oklahoma, it will certainly have the potential (if not likelihood) to go supercellular. Although there are legit concerns about SBCINH/capping, the NCAR ensembles erode most of the cap at LMN by 23z. While just 3/10 NCAR ensembles show robust convective initiation in OK (all in SW OK), they show nothing where the HRRR shows better convergence in north-central OK. Brett mentioned it in the long range thread: we could get nothing and the models may back off, as just a slight bias toward cap-breach will be the difference between nothing and a supercell. The latest HRRR shows nothing through 23z, but you can tell it's on the verge at that point near I-35 in northern OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chargers09 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Seeing a pretty good signal on the short range hi res models for a large MCS tonight. Flooding looks to be an issue along with a few severe gusts/hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyhb Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Little bit of Panhandle magic going on W of Dimmitt right now, already one short-lived tornado confirmed and looks to be cycling to the south. Overall synoptic setup today reminded me a lot of 5/22 last year, which yielded several slow moving tornadic supercells (thermos obviously not quite up to that level).
