I never even commented on this thread until about 2 hours or so after the cap broke and storms began firing. I could easily tell by the storm structures and how quickly most of them congealed into each other. It was kind of obvious this day wasn't going to be as big as thought. I'm just a straight forward guy and say it how it is. Look back in the comments and you'll not find anything from me. Sorry guys. Kind of crazy how you all get worked up so quick over a couple simple comments. You're right, you didn't post in this thread until your bust post. So it begs the question, do you have a purpose here other than trying to be the first person to call bust? Discussing problems/potential limiting factors in the midst of the event is ok. A one or two liner with the "b" word is going to get under people's skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlcater Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 9 minutes ago, jojo762 said: For some reason...I think because of the likely location of the highest tornado threat...tomorrow reminds me of some of those late May 2013 days. Have a weird feeling that something big could happen, despite better judgment of things likely being very messy... NAM and 3NAM both support an impressive parameter space tomorrow across Central OK and other areas possibly as well. Regardless, lots of uncertainty regarding tomorrow at this point given possibility for morning convection + potentially early CI. Seems, IF instability and moisture is not cleared out by morning junk, that an enhanced tornado risk could prevail with any supercells in the afternoon before upscale growth likely occurs, have some pause to the tornado threat though as the low-level wind profile honestly does not feature that much turning tomorrow in the lowest 3km AGL, owing to the same 700mb meridional flow we saw today on the VNX and ICT VWPs. But thinking LLVL shear should also be a bit better earlier on (I.e, not as meager), overly a localized area. Of particular concern to me is the likelihood that we get one or more OFBs across central and northeastern OK tomorrow afternoon (which would obviously increase the tornado threat locally). Any higher-end severe threat (very large hail, possibly strong tornadoes) will rely on strong instability developing... In addition... any strong tornado threat should be relegated to supercells interacting with boundaries as it sits right now IMO, perhaps that could change as mesoscale details evolve late tomorrow morning/early afternoon. Several cams fire a QLCS right away, which would lead to some beautifully photogenic QLCS tornadoes. At this time this is my biggest concern. My second biggest being morning convection lying around from tonight. However could be an okay day with a slightly less impressive parameter space than today and similar caveats regarding too much convection. Very conditional setup hinging on current storm evolution and storm evolution during the event itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Stick a fork in any kind of widespread tornado threat today thanks to an ongoing MCS across Texas. Sure, the complex may pose a renewed damaging wind, hail and brief QLCS tornado threat late this afternoon in the DFW vicinity (and areas northeast into eastern Oklahoma), if it can reintensify. There may also be some threat for warm sector cellular activity immediately ahead of the MCS, but any such convection should tend to be undercut by the system, limiting residence time Modest updrafts would appear possible in three regimes by late afternoon: 1. Along/near outflow related boundaries left in northwest Texas from the departing MCS. There may be a conditional threat for a rogue supercell, but disrupted environmental conditions should limit the scope of such a threat. (Meaning that you could see one "decent" cell, but widespread severe seems unlikely.) 2. The southern flank of the MCS could, eventually, foster a few stronger semi-discrete updrafts in central Texas. 3. North-central Oklahoma to south-central/southeast Kansas may also see renewed storm development, but the MCS will likely cutoff more favorable airmass recovery. The overlap of supportive CAPE/shear should be confined to a relatively small area, somewhat fragmenting the warm sector, so a robust severe threat seems conditional at best.

CGChaser Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Agree with Quincy's sentiments. However, NCAR suite has me a bit intrigued, did decent with this morning's precip shield and has storms firing across western OK into central OK through the afternoon evening. Soundings also suggest decent VWP across central OK ahead of storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vman722 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Velocity sig has been weakening the last few scans but it's in a pretty good environment and nicely isolated. Per mesoanalysis, it's working with 55kt bulk shear (25 kt 0-1km), 250-300 m2/s2 ESRH, low LCL's, plenty of CAPE (2500-3000 j/kg). Really good moisture convergence in that area. The cell SW of it bears watching as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
