Neoncyclone Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) You know you've got a strong MCV when you start seeing the formation of a bookend vortex this early. I'd say this is the very early stages of a strong bookend, maybe not so early-stage, already tornado-warned.

Chinook Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 There is a tornado warning at the bookend vortex. It's pretty far from the SGF radar now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted May 19, 2022 Meteorologist Share Posted May 19, 2022 I'd imagine SPC will at least add hatching to the damaging winds with the 20z update 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neoncyclone Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Man i'm glad today is a forced weather day, if discrete storms were on the menu it could've been a pretty crazy day, especially once the LLJ kicks in, probably going to see some really nice hodographs.

Was moving at 20-25 mph, now 30. Velocities are obviously stronger than earlier. 35 minutes ago, ClicheVortex2014 said: Still 60 mph winds but it is moving at 35 mph now... an indication that the cold pool is maturing. Strong to extremely unstable environment ahead of it. Now up to 70 mph winds moving at 60 mph 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted May 19, 2022 Meteorologist Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) MCS is growing. Semi-discrete supercell on the southern extent.

Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted May 19, 2022 Meteorologist Share Posted May 19, 2022 Odd how the MCS has weakened as it approached the enhanced risk but SPC still thinks it's gonna re-strengthen. Makes sense. New watch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
