Jackstraw Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 46 minutes ago, andyhb said: Sullivan tornado had debris evident at 29k feet from KLOT after it struck town. Was likely violent. Initial reports are not good. Wish I had a screenshot of the debris ball when it happened. I swear I've never seen one that big and it lingered in the storm for nearly an hour. It was insane. There's not much emergency infrastructure in that area. That area of SW IN is one of the poorest areas in the country. Edit: I go fishing and camping around that area a lot. Know it pretty well.

Witness Protection Program Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I'm just amazed that The Weather Channel is actually still covering this. Small victories, I guess. They're infamous for bailing no later than midnight central. I remember them switching to Nose Picking Ice Truckers reruns as the Jefferson City, MO tornado was churning through the city and the on-air mets were visibly shaken by the devastation they knew was taking place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackstraw Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Man seems like an unusual increase in long duration tornadic systems this year so far. This is like the 3rd or 4th continually producing tornados for 24hrs or more. At least seems like it, too tired to check. Mesoscale Discussion 0424 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0113 AM CDT Sat Apr 01 2023 Areas affected...Middle Tennessee...northeastern Mississippi...and northwestern Alabama Concerning...Tornado Watch 101... Valid 010613Z - 010745Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 101 continues. SUMMARY...Severe storms -- capable of producing damaging winds and tornadoes -- continue moving eastward across the Tennessee Valley area. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a band of storms moving across Middle Tennessee and northeastern Mississippi at this time, with several embedded severe/rotating storms. Along with risk for wind gusts in the 60 to 70 MPH range, a few storms appear to be either currently tornadic, or capable of producing a tornado in the near term. Two of these supercells -- one now moving into southern Prentiss County in northeastern Mississippi and the other crossing central Pontotoc County in northeastern Mississippi -- both appear to have produced tornadoes within the past 15 to 30 minutes. Given the degree of shear indicated by KGWX and KHTX WSR-88d VWPs, and mixed-layer CAPE in the 1000 to 1500 J/kg range, the environment downstream from the ongoing storms remains favorable to support a continuation of risk through the remainder of WW 101, and potentially farther east still -- which may require new/downstream WW issuance into eastern Tennessee.

CheeselandSkies Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 What a day. Intercepted an ongoing wedge tornado at Iowa Highway 92/77 just south of Keota right around 4 PM. After watching it approach for a few minutes (pointing my car ready to blast off if it looked like I was gonna be in the path) the storm cycled right in front of me. A small but intense area of rotation formed out in front of the first tornado, tightening into a truncated cone with a dusty debris cloud whirling below. It quickly became fully condensed, albeit shrouded in dust (almost looking like a clone of Gilmore City, IA from last April, which I missed despite being within striking distance of the storm when it first went severe-warned). These are the two video screenshots included here, thanks to attachment limits. It then went through a rapid intensification and several changes in appearance, becoming a narrow drillbit which expanded into a dusty stovepipe. An explosion of debris ensued as it impacted some structures while crossing 92 just to my west. @andyhb has seen the screenshot I posted on TalkWeather. As it passed into an open field just to my northwest, the tornado was now a stubby, dusty wedge beneath a ridiculously low-LCL, sculpted tornado cyclone/collar cloud (not unlike some of the April 27, 2011 tornadoes, except this one could actually seen without intervening hills and trees!). The rope out of the first wedge was actually still on-going at this time, I didn't even notice it in real time but captured it by happy accident as the strong inflow wind (to my at-the-time annoyance) panned my camcorder off the new wedge. At this point I realized I'd better move if I wanted any hope of staying with the fast-moving storm. I blasted east on 92 all the way to IA-1, where I turned north. I pulled over to set up again just after getting through Kalona, but just as I did so the cell began to be affected by surrounding upscale growth. I was able to catch a distant view of the fast-moving rope out from this location. This is my kind of chasing. No zero-metering for me. If the tornado didn't kill me, either my mother or my wife would. 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
