Stebo Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Given the way things are unfolding and with some of these storms putting down tornadoes without being warned, wouldn't be surprised if we end up with a decent localized tornado outbreak at least. Yeah the one DSM reported was unwarned that is for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indystorm Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Yep, if moisture would have been higher and more extensive geographically this would have been outbreak potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClicheVortex2014 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Yep, if moisture would have been higher and more extensive geographically this would have been outbreak potential. I think the last time we observed this much shear (95 knots 0-6km in the Topeka sounding) in a severe event must've been 11/17, when ILN's 19z sounding found 84 knots 0-6km. We got hit by the low-topped squall around 01z, so the 00z sounding might've had even more shear than 84 knots... but they didn't launch the 00z balloon.

Jonbo Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Did a little backyard chasing and was able to get a few shots of the rotation/funnel as it passed Cumming, IA. I believe it's the same rotation as what hit the DSM airport on the southside. Wasn't able to keep up with it due to storm speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natester Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 The first tornado warning in Linn County this year occurred in November! I don't know if it's happened before.

Chicago Storm Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 The first tornado warning in Linn County this year occurred in November! I don't know if it's happened before, but this storm system really overachived. If instability was higher than it was, this could have been a major tornado outbreak, aka November 17, 2013.I really wouldn't say it overachieved.

hawkeye_wx Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 The severe part of the line remained just south of Cedar Rapids, so all I got was a brief downpour with some moderate wind.... disappointing after following this dynamic system for days. A few reports of 70-75 mph wind gusts have come in from just south and east of CR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye05 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 This is near Albia, IA, which was mentioned a couple of pages back--rotational couplet.
