Chargers09 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Nasty hook/notch on the leading edge of the tornado warned cell just north of San Antonio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetjanet998 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 several couplets now over SE Ok area within those discrete cells ...the question is will the soon to be surging line eat them fast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to mention the storms moving towards the San Antonio and Austin metro areas. I’m starting to get a little concerned about these storms, especially if they start showing hooks (and velocity couplets) on radar as you mentioned.

janetjanet998 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 TOR probs lowered to 10% and also hatched gone on 01z outlook 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Maybe the severe weather will ramp up soon in far northeast Texas into southwest Arkansas, including the current tornado warning at Woodland TX/ Red River area. Otherwise... 30 severe reports so far would be a very low # of severe reports if things don't get active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it picked up on an extra boundary (or outflow) but yeah, seeing a lot of small hooks and kinks in the line now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there seems to be an outflow boundary in place. If these hooks can get out ahead of the outflow (of which I’ve drawn below), watch out: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will need to watch how it interacts with the outflow though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janetjanet998 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 decent couplet on western AR...but that line may over take it in an HR or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeselandSkies Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 TDS with the western AR cell. I'd post a radar image but my attachment limit is capped at 0.16 MB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It’s very unstable ahead of main line with excellent shear. As forcing increases farther East I would watch the next 1-2 hours for discrete development. It’s still relatively early in this event...biggest potential was never really until a bit later on. Outflow from this line could be a major focal point moving through these next several plus hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanLarsen34 Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 I’m a little surprised they dropped the significant tornado delineation in the update. Significant tornadoes are still a distinct possibility, both within in the line, and with any sustained semi-discrete convection (see cell near Clarksville, AR).

ingyball Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 That tornado in AR is big Yikes. Edit: Thankfully it appears the rotation has weakened for the time being. Edit 2: And it just tightened up again in the last frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but storm mode is still "grungy" as it has been most of the day once it starts that way it's hard to snap out of it..many outbreaks I have followed underachieved because of it 80kt kt LLJ later may have a surprise or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storms have been intermittently severe with a few confirmed tornadoes, none particularly long-lasting or violent-potential-appearing (in contrast, to, say the 62-mile track beast of December 16th). Not that warnings shouldn't be taken seriously, especially at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydney Claridge Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 And there’s now a tornado warning on that Kingsbury storm. (there also had been a TW when it passed over Seguin) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Stronger rotation may have developed in the past few minutes near Jasper, Arkansas. The storm is getting farther away from KLZK and KSRX radars, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1900hurricane Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 About to get rough in Bryan/College Station. The strong and somewhat wavy signature on radar velocity makes me think QLCS tors aren't out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
