jpeters3 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 8 minutes ago, OceanStWx said: Could easily be to weak to hold back the colder RFDs. But all models have winds ramping up from here to 00z. It's probably a combination of cold pool/shear interactions and insufficient low-level tilting of vorticity. RAP shows a fairly dramatic increase in low-level shear over the next several hours, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo762 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Seems like there has been a bit of a trend for things to get clustery/HP/messy but then for things to emerge as discrete/semi-discrete, if this continues into the evening hours along with the current discrete cells we have, things will likely get fairly busy.
