MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0575

NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK

0733 PM CDT MON MAY 09 2016

AREAS AFFECTED...EASTERN NEBRASKA/WESTERN IOWA SOUTHWARD TO NORTHERN

OKLAHOMA

CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 154...156...

VALID 100033Z - 100130Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH

154...156...CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...SEVERE THREAT CONTINUES PRIMARILY ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS

OF WWS 154 AND 156. AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO REMAINS POSSIBLE

ESPECIALLY IN NORTHERN OKLAHOMA.

DISCUSSION...CONTINUE WWS 154 AND 156. WIDESPREAD CONVECTION HAS

BEGUN THE PROCESS OF CONGEALING ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN

NEBRASKA AND NORTH-CENTRAL KANSAS IN THE PAST 30 MINUTES. AS THESE

STORMS CONGEAL...LARGE HAIL /INCLUDING BASEBALL HAIL REPORTS FROM

WASHINGTON COUNTY KANSAS/ AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WILL REMAIN

POSSIBLE...AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO MAY OCCUR WITH ANY ISOLATED CELL

THAT CAN ACQUIRE ROTATION. AS THESE STORMS CONGEAL...THEY MAY BEGIN

A SLOW EASTWARD MOVEMENT WITH TIME /ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN

NEBRASKA/.

FARTHER SOUTH...A COUPLE OF SUPERCELL STRUCTURES ARE EVIDENT NEAR

THE KANSAS/OKLAHOMA BORDER...AND ANOTHER ISOLATED TORNADIC SUPERCELL

PERSISTS ACROSS PAWNEE/OSAGE OKLAHOMA. IN THIS REGION...BACKING OF

LOW-LEVEL WIND FIELDS BENEATH STRONGER /30-50 KNOT/ WESTERLY FLOW

ALOFT IS PROVIDING SUFFICIENT SHEAR FOR UPDRAFT ROTATION AND A

SLIGHTLY HIGHER TORNADO THREAT. LARGE HAIL...PERHAPS EXCEEDING 2

INCHES IN DIAMETER...WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS.

PARTS OF THIS REGION HAVE ALREADY BEEN UPGRADED TO A TORNADO

WATCH...AND ADDITIONAL AREAS MAY BE UPGRADED AS CONVECTION EVOLVES.

ADDITIONALLY...SATELLITE AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS SUGGEST THAT NEW

DEVELOPMENT MAY CONTINUE TO INCREASE ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA

GIVEN STRONG CONVERGENCE ALONG A DRYLINE IN THE REGION AND AN

APPROACHING MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE. ALL MODES OF SEVERE WILL BE

POSSIBLE WITH ANY MATURE STORM THAT DEVELOPS IN THIS REGIME.

RaXPol was apparently measuring the violent wedge tornado near Hickory/Sulpher earlier today... Several dows were, wonder what kind of estimated winds they got, also wonder if OUN will pay any attention to them. Regardless of whatever they measured, still looks like there were several homes/buildings that received high-end damage nonetheless, among other key markers, e.g. ground scouring, debarked trees, etc.

All kinds of surprises today, there was a pretty long warning in Wyoming today as well, not sure if it ever ended being a TOG or not.

This is near the WF. There were a few in the DVN CWA today as well.

 

Have seen the warm front produce quite well in the Midwest the past few events.

I highly doubt OUN will pay attention to the winds recorded because the EF scale is based on damage, not on measured winds.  Think of El Reno 2013.  Yes, I know, it sucks.

Some footage of the earlier chaos with the mile wide wedge. "Is this bigger than El Reno?"

 

Basehunters gets everything it seems, lets find out tonight if they bagged a bunch.

 

I noticed when I was going to post hours ago when I hit reply to 3 quoted it did nothing and the board seemed to derp out (online count dropped to 6 from hundreds)...what was that?

This is the reason why I didn't save any loops of the Hugo, Oklahoma storm.  Radar holes FTL!

 

I mean it's so far away from the site that I don't even know if I can reliably say it. But seriously, that rotation signature between deport and clarksville shown on KSRX is pretty ominous.

yeah I was sorta being sarcastic. Changes are needed to the system.

Remarkable similarity in appearance between today's Sulphur wedge and the 1999 Bridge Creek tornado: https://twitter.com/AaronWxDavis/status/729851071196188672

Incredible. Even has the lowering on the right side. We should have gone strait south, but we got the very brief tornado from the Norman storm. Then went north toward Stillwater and proceeded to have our clutch go out and had to be rescued by a friend. Happy we didn't go south so that didn't happen near a wedge.

Here's one bit of the velocity data from the Hugo storm before it hit Hugo. This is about the highest SRV the radar showed. As you know, the velocity data can be noisy at those type of distances.
