Indystorm Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Mesoscale Discussion 1112 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0247 PM CDT Sat Jun 26 2021 Areas affected...Parts of central/southern Lower Michigan...northwestern Indiana...central Illinois...into east central Missouri Concerning...Tornado Watch 321... Valid 261947Z - 262145Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 321 continues. SUMMARY...More substantive thunderstorm intensification is ongoing and likely to continue through late afternoon. Stronger storms will continue to pose a risk for tornadoes, with organizing clusters also posing a risk for damaging downbursts. Areas east and southwest of Tornado Watch 321 are being monitored for the possibility of additional watches. DISCUSSION...A remnant convectively generated surface boundary/deformation zone between a pair of MCV remains the primary focus for deepening convective development and scattered vigorous embedded thunderstorm activity. Boundary layer dewpoints are increasing through the lower 70s F across interior southern Lower Michigan, and remain in the mid 70s F southwest of Chicago into the St. Louis area along this zone, where low-level hodographs also remain sizable beneath a 30-40 kt south-southwesterly 850 mb jet. The primary jet core now appears to be nosing into southern Lower Michigan, but a secondary core appears to be currently migrating across/northeast of the St. Louis area. Despite weak lapse rates, the high boundary-layer moisture content appears to be contributing to mixed-layer CAPE of 1500-2000 J/kg. Coupled with the strong low-level vertical shear, the environment appears to be coming increasingly conducive to strengthening low-level mesocyclones within the stronger storms through late afternoon. These may occasionally pose a risk for tornadoes and/or strong downbursts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherMonger Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Storm aspect of it is pretty lame, wouldn't even call it heavy rain for having 2" PWATS. Maybe 34-40mph gusts right arounf the time tornado warning was issued. Sirens never went off. Lightning stopped just before the rain got here. Just a moderate rain falling.

CheeselandSkies Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 From MKX's afternoon AFD: Quote his afternoon a corridor of SBCAPE to 1000 J/kg has built for counties over southeast Wisconsin. While MLCAPE is low suggesting some capping, some pop-up showers have formed. Effective Bulk Shear is impressive pushing 50kts over the area, so we`ll keep an eye out to see if anything takes off. The severe potential has really been sabotaged by lingering cloud cover and the threat still remains marginal. Good to know they think just like me.

I'm not sure the threat is higher for this round than the one before. Low level flow actually looks more veered in the wake of the earlier activity. Talking strictly about our area. Still a chance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydney Claridge Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 7 minutes ago, Chinook said: southwest of Lansing MI - confirmed tornado I’m getting concerned about the path this storm is taking. It’s moving in the direction of the Lansing metro area (especially the SE part). If this storm can hold together, there would be concern for a tornado in a highly-populated area.

I thought we had multiple warnings on the evening of Cristobal last year. Maybe just close by then? There's a pic on twitter of a low hanging funnel in Dyer from earlier. Can't tell if it's a tornado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
