NC_hailstorm Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Not surprising,you can get some really big events when you get a big phased storm like this if timed right and you're in the right location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One in Spartanburg county and another in Union No. Up in Cherokee county northwest of Gaffney. Actually this one was about 3-4 miles northwest of where I was at the time.

Chinook Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 This was quite the unexpected severe weather outbreak. The SPC had this as marginal on the day before. I thought there would be several severe reports, but not 14 tornadoes and 100 wind reports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought there would be several severe reports, but not 14 tornadoes and 100 wind reports They put out tornado watches this time around though, and upgraded to slight risk the evening before....... they didn't do that for Nate.

nrgjeff Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Like with Nate, high-res models correctly showed a vigorous LLJ. I believe the Escarpment adds to these set-ups. CAMs also had individual cells. Finally the surface chart showed dews above 70 with screaming SSE winds. Atmo was ready to go again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
