WhirlingWx Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Velocity sig on that cell is going bonkers. Hopefully passes north of the small town of Truscott, and is otherwise in a rural area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cstrunk Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 That's just Reed doing Reed things. He acts that way for three reasons. 1) He has an insane passion for severe weather. 2) He knows that he can hype ANYTHING to generate more clicks, views, ratings, etc. which generates him money. 3) He has a screw loose in his head. But whatever you say about him, the dude just gets it done more often than not. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 4/28-- (Only) 15% hatched hail probabilities for S Texas, with 5%/15%/15% for some areas near the Red River also Quote Further to the south into southwest Texas, strong instability is expected to develop, with MLCAPE values reaching the 2000 to 3000 J/kg range. Convection should develop in the higher terrain of northern Mexico and move eastward into the Del Rio, Texas area during the early evening. The strong instability combined with 60 to 70 kt of deep-layer shear should be favorable for large hail, with some hailstones greater than 2 inches in diameter possible. A tornado threat may also develop with supercells that move across southwest Texas this evening. HRW-NMMB at 27 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quincy Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Several things… Opted to chase Colorado yesterday and ended up missing the landspouts. Not a big deal, I’m kind of a tornado snob, but it was fitting that I missed tornadoes closer to home, in NW Texas, yet again. The supercell, in general, was very dusty/grungy, so there weren’t too many photo opportunities. It looks like a tornado hit the town west of where I live last night… Torn between Rel Rio and NW Texas again. If the terrain and road networks were better, I’d definitely go with the southern target. Still reviewing data, but it’s also been interesting to see tornado warnings and even a couple tornadoes this morning via radar. We should be in for another busy day… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would play south and hope for some Del Rio magic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quincy Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 The LLJ axis is definitely shifting east. Even the Del Rio area is on the fringe, but short term guidance shows low-level flow rapidly strengthening around and shortly after 00z. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, seeing the latest radar trends, it's not going to work out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhirlingWx Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 The outflow boundary extends well into central TX as well, and there's also a lot more instability in that vicinity compared to here it seems. Maybe we'll get a local expansion of the tornado watch if the situation warrants it later on, but things might also get squall-ish by the time storms arrive here. Still a lot of time to watch the setup evolve locally, but I think the tornado threat will maximize off to our west/southwest where the watch currently covers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a lot of time to watch the setup evolve locally, but I think the tornado threat will maximize off to our west/southwest where the watch currently covers. That's what the HRRR shows. But I suspect things will have transitioned to a heavy rain threat by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
