MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0928
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0534 PM CDT SUN JUN 07 2015

AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF CENTRAL/NRN IL...NRN IND

CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 267...270...

VALID 072234Z - 080000Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH
267...270...CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...NUMEROUS SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE
WATCH AREAS IN THE FORM OF LINES/BOWING SEGMENTS AND SEMI-DISCRETE
STORMS. THE MORE PRONOUNCED WIND DAMAGE THREAT IN THE SHORT TERM
WILL BE WITH PRONOUNCED BOWING SEGMENT OVER NORTHWEST INDIANA. A
LOCAL WATCH EXTENSION MAY BE NEEDED WITH TIME TO THE EAST OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH 270...AND A NEW WATCH MAY BE NEEDED SOUTHEAST OF
THIS WATCH LATER THIS EVENING.


DISCUSSION...NUMEROUS SVR TSTMS WERE IN PROGRESS AT 2225Z FROM NWRN
IND SWWD ACROSS W-CENTRAL IL...WITH A HISTORY OF DAMAGING WINDS AND
LARGE HAIL. THE DOMINANT CONVECTIVE MODE OVER MUCH OF THE AREA
RECENTLY HAS BEEN LINEAR...WITH A PRONOUNCED BOWING SEGMENT OVER FAR
NWRN IND SHOWING A WELL-DEVELOPED COMMA HEAD AND REAR INFLOW JET.
DAMAGING WINDS ARE LIKELY...WITH A FEW SIGNIFICANT SVR WIND REPORTS
POSSIBLE AS THIS SEGMENT OF THE LINE CONTINUES TO MOVE EWD WITHIN A
FAVORABLY SHEARED/MODERATELY BUOYANT ENVIRONMENT. WITH TIME...A
LOCAL EXTENSION OF WW 270 MAY BE NEEDED TO THE E OF CURRENT WATCH
AREA. IN ADDITION...A NEW WATCH MAY BE REQUIRED TO THE SOUTHEAST OF
THIS WATCH LATER THIS EVENING.

SVR TSTMS EXTENDING ACROSS CENTRAL/W-CENTRAL IL WITHIN WW 267 REMAIN
A MIX OF LINEAR AND SEMI-DISCRETE CELLS. MESOANALYSIS AND RECENT VWP
DATA REFLECT 40-45 KTS OF EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR WITH MODERATE/STRONG
SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY. GIVEN BROAD/WEAK HEIGHT FALLS ASSOCIATED
WITH AN UPSTREAM SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVERSPREADING THE AREA...THE
ENVIRONMENT WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT A SVR THREAT INTO THE EVENING
HOURS.

Yeah, if I were in North Judson right now, I'd have an eye on the sky, although it's an HP mess.

There was a TVS just north of North Judson a few minutes ago. I don't think the circulation every truly tightened up enough but its in an extremely favorable environment. A ton of Relative Helicity ahead of it too.

Went spotting in the county this evening even though I knew the storms were going to turn south and leave us with scraps. I did get to see some nice shelf cloud structure and a couple of REAL close CG strikes. Drove home in the dark watching lots of crawlers. A nice stormy evening, although no severe.

Tornadoes within a line of storms have to be the most dangerous of them all. You expect an ordinary t-storm and then get hit, must be completely rain-wrapped when they do occur. The strength of these tornadoes are usually limited to EF0-EF1 right?

 

 

A higher percentage of them tend to be rated at those levels compared to discrete supercellular tornadoes, but it's not extremely uncommon to get a stronger tornado from circulations embedded within a line.  There have occasionally even been tornadoes in the (E)F3-4 range.

MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0934

1102 PM CDT SUN JUN 07 2015

AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF CENTRAL INDIANA

CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 271...

VALID 080402Z - 080530Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 271
CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...THE THREAT FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND A TORNADO CONTINUES
ACROSS REMAINING VALID PORTIONS OF THE WATCH AREA. A LOCAL EXTENSION
IN AREA AND TIME MAY BE NEEDED PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED 05Z
EXPIRATION.

DISCUSSION...A PRONOUNCED BOWING COMPLEX OF SVR TSTMS CONTINUES
MOVING EWD AT 35-40 KTS ACROSS W-CENTRAL INDIANA/E-CENTRAL IL AT
04Z...EXTENDING GENERALLY FROM MONTGOMERY CO INDIANA TO CLARK COUNTY
IL. RECENT RADAR REFLECTIVITY SUGGESTS A NRN BOOKEND VORTEX MAY BE
DEVELOPING...AND A REAR INFLOW JET MAY BE BECOMING ESTABLISHED. IF
THESE TRENDS CONTINUE...THIS BOWING COMPLEX MAY CONTINUE TO PRODUCE
CORRIDORS OF ENHANCED WIND DAMAGE AND SHORT-LIVED QLCS TORNADOES

BEYOND THE SCHEDULED EXPIRATION TIME OF WW 271 AT 05Z. IN
ADDITION...THE THREAT MAY SHIFT S OF THE CURRENT SRN WATCH AREA...IN
CLOSER PROXIMITY TO HIGHER THETA-E AIR AND A 40-45 KT LOW LEVEL JET.
AS A RESULT A LOCAL AREAL/TEMPORAL EXTENSION OF THE WW MAY BE NEEDED
ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE WFO IND CWA. BEYOND 06-07Z...THE THREAT FOR
DAMAGING WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH...HOWEVER CONVECTIVE TRENDS WILL BE
MONITORED.

Thanks! I have to find some examples of radar images of what those stronger tornadoes look like in a line.

Jon Davies gave a good talk several years back about these at a spotter conference about this topic. His page has some examples and he has written a paper on it I think. As he mentioned this is the most common tornado we typically have in Indiana.
