yoda Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Mesoscale Discussion 2008 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1153 PM CST Fri Dec 10 2021 Areas affected...Portions of northern Kentucky. Concerning...Tornado Watch 554... Valid 110553Z - 110700Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 554 continues. SUMMARY...A strong tornado threat continues across portions of northern Kentucky. DISCUSSION...Storm interference from new cells merging has finally disrupted the persistent very strong low-level mesocyclone with the long-lived supercell now entering Breckenridge County, Kentucky. However, while this has weakened the intensity of the updraft and low-level rotation, a strong tornado with around 50 to 55 knot Vrot and a TDS is still present. Mid 60s dewpoints have advected ahead of this storm and therefore, adequate instability remains for strong tornado development given the 350 to 400 m2/s2 0-1 km SRH per the KLVX VWP. Therefore, while circulations may be weaker and more transient, a strong tornado threat persists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheeselandSkies Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 I am surprised how much quality video has been coming out of this event given darkness, time of year, storm speeds and HP storm modes apart from the long-track classic monster. I guess I thought more people would have the good sense to not chase due to those factors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calderon Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 It looks like finally a cell on the flanking line may've surged the RFD forward enough to choke this puppy off, for the moment. Meanwhile, Stewart County, TN continues to tighten and have a healthy CC signature is a very, very rural region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calderon Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 This tornado looks like it may go just north of the airfield at Ft. Campbell and stay south of Hopkinsville, leaving mostly rural farmland. Exception is the main Oak Grove exit on I-24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
