Coach McGuirk Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 looked like a pretty good hook echo for the Lynchburg area. Any confirmed reports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 2nd line filled in to the W/SW and bowed out as it moved E/NE through here, easily producing 50+ MPH winds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 It's looking like today could be round 2 (big change from yesterday). NAM shows the QLCS across OK moving ESE throughout the day and re-intensifying. Could get interesting with more strong winds and the already saturated grounds, given the trees already took a heck of a beating today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Pretty active day on Friday across a lot of the SE, including several tornado reports in AL. There were about 27 reports out of Metro Atlanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tramadoc Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I picked up a quick quarter of an inch around 0330 this morning from a fast mover. Thunder and lightning from an embedded t-storm cell about 10 miles west of me, but no lightning strikes near me. The day has started out very humid. The pool is still bath water warm at 86° this morning after reaching 90° yesterday afternoon. Looks like a warm and busy weekend. Hope everyone has a great one!!

cmh90 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Got slammed pretty hard in Greenville with heavy rains and winds 40+ mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceagewhereartthou Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 For the second day in a row GSP topped out at 88 with dewpoints a notch lower in mid-upper 60s (instead of 70s) and a breeze, all in all not terrible. Broke the string of consecutive days of 90+ of 8. I noticed excessive heat warnings for the greater Charleston area tomorrow with actual temps around 100 and HI of 110+!

Powerball Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Yet again, it could be a nowcasting situation as far as severe weather. Pretty organized MCS coming out of OK right now, diving ESE. The difference this morning is there's no convection ahead of it to disrupt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Mesoscale Discussion 0856 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0737 AM CDT Sun Jun 24 2018 Areas affected...extreme northeast Texas...much of Arkansas...northwest Mississippi...and far western Tennessee Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 211... Valid 241237Z - 241430Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 211 continues. SUMMARY...Thunderstorms ongoing across western Arkansas will continue to pose a risk for large hail and strong, gusty winds as they move into central Arkansas. The environment ahead of this thunderstorm cluster suggests that a new Severe Thunderstorm Watch may be needed east of the current watch. DISCUSSION...Long-lived mesoscale convective system (MCS) with leading edge bow-echo continues across western Arkansas. Recent radar trends suggest an uptick in intensity as the MCS is moving into central Arkansas. Surface dewpoints in the 70s and diurnal heating will allow for continued destabilization ahead of this feature. Thus, most-unstable CAPE values currently around 2000 J/kg should only increase through the morning. Additionally, this area is on the southern fringe of the better deep-layer shear, which will only act to further thunderstorm organization and MCS maintenance. Thus, the severe threat may continue through the morning and begin to impact areas outside of Severe Thunderstorm Watch 211. The region will continue to be monitored for the potential of an additional Severe Thunderstorm Watch to the east of watch 211. ..Marsh/Guyer.. 06/24/2018 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Powerball Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Updated SPC outlook: SPC AC 241300 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0800 AM CDT Sun Jun 24 2018 ...Mid-South to Tennessee Valley... A well-organized and long-lived quasi-linear MCS continues to persist across Arkansas early this morning, likely with aid of a trailing MCV across far northeast Oklahoma. Various convection-allowing models including overnight HRRR runs have tended to erroneously predict a weakening of this convection. It is plausible that this MCS persists and even re-intensifies within a moist and diurnally destabilizing boundary layer. At the very least, the parent MCV will likely provide favorable forcing for ascent, as well an enhanced belt of mid-level winds/deep-layer shear, for severe-conducive development into the afternoon as it spreads eastward across the region. Damaging winds should be the most common concern, but severe hail and even some tornado risk may exist through early evening. ..Guyer/Marsh.. 06/24/2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpbart Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Heat index forecast to be up around 110. Need to soak yourself with the hose to survive cutting the lawn. Can’t wait until the real dog days of summer in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes; there was quite an intense presentation on radar, it is one of the more astonishing features of spring and summer weather here especially considering that they will sometimes go offshore and become tropical, yet they do not always develop a circulation on land.

When the conditions are right though (shear, steering flow, etc.), they do their own thing entirely when it comes to the evolution/track of convection and all bets are off in terms of forecasts.

yotaman Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 A nasty electrical storm moved thru our area around midnight. Lost power for about 2 hours but only picked up .26". We must have been on the edge of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerball Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Got hit with more rounds of storms today, including a severe line of storms during the late afternoon hours. It produced an epic shelf cloud too. The airport reported a 45 MPH gust from the outflow boundary. Still, no relief from the heat. Between the storms, we hit 92*F twice (once by 12:30pm, and the 2nd time around 4:30pm) with dewpoints in the low/mid 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerball Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Got slammed yet again with severe t'storms. Difference today is they came through around 1:30pm, thus ending our 90*F. We managed to soar to 89*F before crashing into the upper 60s / lower 70s for the rest of the afternoon with stratiform rains and occasional thunder.
