Here are some useful links to check out/explore https://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/help/sfcoa.html https://www.weather.gov/bmx/outreach_severeparameters https://www.weatherwx.net/wp-content/uploads/severe_weather_checklist.pdf http://bangladeshtornadoes.org/EML/emlpage.html Alot of convective forecasting comes down to trying to understand or visualize how convection will respond based on the surrounding environment. This becomes easier over time after lots of practice/experience. What also helps is doing analysis of previous events...especially higher end events to get a great visual of what ingredients are in place during those setups and then comparing to events which are smaller magnitude.

Actually just 20 minutes ago during the storm I looked at my display and it did not measure rain. So something has to be caught in the spout. I will clear it tomorrow and see what happened. I have the stratus and we just had .70" in the passing storm. More rain to come but we needed this drink. Oh, no wind, no hail but lots of cloud to ground strikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiator Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Just saw that warning - it’s only a few towns away from here (Washington Depot) - when the most intense part of the storm went thru here a few minutes ago it was kinda ‘meh’ - maybe a few miles and local terrain makes a big difference.

ROOSTA Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 The converging seabreeze(s) down here are lightning laced with isolated extreme rainfall (5-10")In/hr rates. Doesn't meet severe criteria but a collapsing cell occassionaly produces 30-40mph downbursts, and it's everyday. Enjoy your garden variety boomers. Marine influence knocks down the storms in the NE, here it's the that boundary that sets them off, oh the irony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIPPYVALLEY Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I’m in the heart of this line now, decent drink but pretty tame winds and I’ve heard 2 decent rumbles of thunder. Good luck east of the river but you may be disappointed if you like severe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
