Superstorm93 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Pretty awesome gravity waves in central/western Oklahoma. You can also start to see the upper level clouds start to bend more to the north and west as the main upper level low approaches the area and modifies the flow. Its going to be interesting to see how this one plays out. The 18z initiation isn't close to ideal, but we'll have to see if things quickly grow and congeal from here on out, despite come capping left in Oklahoma.

David Reimer Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Sitting in Watonga, Oklahoma waiting on the show to begin. Easy north and south options, but thinking it will be too messy up by the KS border with convection down in far SW OK trying to grow upscale quickly. Honestly, this doesn't look like a high risk TOR setup right now, but a few tornadoes are likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Smith Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Prediction -- line of supercells will form rather late in a bowed line DDC - SPS and peak around 03z when into s/c KS to western OKC. Activity may reach F3-5 intensity. Cells will remain severe well past 06z ICT-TUL-DFW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo762 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Going to get a good handle in the next hour or two of how this day will evolve. If stuff stays semi-discrete during this time frame, it could be a very dangerous day across Oklahoma and Kansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Clause Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 This has to be one of the toughest calls in a good while. I'm favoring storm mode going to messy, but definitely not a sure thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
