Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted April 5, 2022 Author Meteorologist Share Posted April 5, 2022 Significant tornadoes remain possible for the next 1-2 hours Mesoscale Discussion 0418 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0530 PM CDT Tue Apr 05 2022 Areas affected...Southern South Carolina Concerning...Tornado Watch 98...99... Valid 052230Z - 060000Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 98, 99 continues. SUMMARY...Tornadic supercells ahead of the squall line will continue to pose a threat for significant tornadoes over the next 1-2 hours across southern South Carolina. DISCUSSION...Supercells ahead of an approaching squall line have maintained intensity and organization over the past hour. The effects of downstream diabatic cooling continue to be overcome by strong kinematics ahead of the parent cyclone to the north/northwest. Favorable low-level moisture (60+ F dewpoints) outlining the effective warm sector is matching the forward speed of these supercells, maintaining an environment with around 1000 J/kg MLCAPE and 300-400 m2/s2 0-1 km SRH (based on regional VWPs). This will support a continued tornado threat for the next 1-2 hours, possibly lasting into the mid to late evening hours for portions of coastal SC. Given the kinematic environment and VROT values noted with recent circulations, a couple of significant tornadoes are possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted April 5, 2022 Author Meteorologist Share Posted April 5, 2022 New, large PDS warning. Again, the lower CC values ahead of this supercell is debris from previous tornadoes produced by this supercell. Approaching 40 tornado reports on the day and we're still going. The 3/30 outbreak is now sitting at 107 tornado reports. Looking at a high ceiling event next week for the Plains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
