Iceresistance Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 I've noticed that every single outbreak that has occurred this year so far had a tornado with a rating of at least EF3 since March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceresistance Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Y'all remember that crazy man in Ellabell, GA that had the tornado right in front of him & he was standing on the porch facing it? Well, I've recently found out why it happened. I'll put it out on a different post. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceresistance Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 @1816@OKwx_2001@snowlover2 The person in Ellabell, GA was golfing when he saw the tornado coming, he ran to the Clubhouse, but couldn't get inside because the door was locked. And he had no choice but to stand on the front porch facing the tornado, he did not want to go to the sides where he will get clobbered by the flying debris, or at the back where he will get literally sandblasted by the wind & debris. The Front Porch area turned out to be the safest in that situation. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And like @Tater I believe it was who pointed out how good the filming was. Pretty badass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLChip Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Mad props for not losing his cool, I may have smashed glass just to get inside. Debris is deadly when moving at 150mph 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted April 15, 2022 Author Meteorologist Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) Some things I've learned over the past decade of tracking storms, but mostly over the past few years, is a few solid precursors to a supercell dropping a significant tornado. This is a good example, as is the Texas high-end EF3 on the 12th, and the Dayton tornado. A very classic supercell structure on a tornado day can be a good precursor that something big is about to happen... but something that produces more certainty is when a supercell has very strong inflow. That was especially the case with the Texas EF3 because I remember saying it's only a matter of time until either it advances toward the RFD or the RFD catches up with it... and then it did. Anyway, the April 5th Georgia tornado has been upgraded to a higher-end EF4. Also goes to show how long it can take for the NWS to finish surveying. This had a classic supercell structure before intense tornadogenesis. This one had strong but misplaced inbounds and outbounds before they 'met up.'

When they said they were bringing in national experts I had a feeling there was going to be a substantial upgrade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
