burrel2 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 A nice couplet about 10 miles from my house right now. Just got tornado warned... Low level clouds were really whizzing by this morning. I don't know that I've ever seen clouds moving that fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the rotation will track directly over Wallace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkman Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yeah TOR up to 15% and they removed the 45% wind area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF0602 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Bad sign with spins up this early, once this cluster by Wilmington passes we should have some decent sunshine via the visible loop in eastern NC. Edit our dewpoint is already up to 64 in Jville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disc Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Strengthened again on the next scan. Now into SC headed towards Walhalla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TullyHeel Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 59 and cloudy in North Raleigh. Was hoping the cloud cover would limit instability, but doesn't look like it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No snow for you Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Driving down 385 and it is windy and ugly outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fountainguy97 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I feel Like the SPC hasn't pulled the trigger for Central NC yet. I bet at 12:30 update the mod risk will be extended west and maybe if areas get sun a high risk may pop up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Rain Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Why were the higher wind probs removed? Anyone know? Have the short range models backed off the instability/kinematics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disc Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 This tornado warned storm is in an area where the SPC doesn't even have a tornado risk and surface temps are in the low to mid-50s. Dynamics of this system already flexing its muscles this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The convection that is supposed to bring clouds is failing fast and the HRRR shows Central and EAstern NC getting a few hours of sun before the storms. HRRR actually has 2100+ cape south of Wake co. 12:30 update I think they will upgrade this area big time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand the specifics of it, but in these setups there are always surprising spin ups located along the cold-air wedge boundary. I suspect that is what's aiding this cell's rotation.

olafminesaw Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 What's the timing of the worst storms? The HRRR brings a couple lines through, so it's hard to tell. Will the first line of storms inhibit severe activity in later lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what has me worried. If SPC says "crap" and puts eastern areas in a high risk at 12:30 that's like 2 hours of warning.... and I hear Matt Englerecht in PGV going extremely light on the tornado talk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They thought last night more of a line segment with less tornado threat now they're leaning more towards more individual cells thus less widespread wind damage but more tornadoes.Also around 70 degrees down near the coast where the high temp was only supposed to be 72-74...
