Meteorologist ClicheVortex2014 Posted January 12, 2023 Meteorologist Share Posted January 12, 2023 The squall behind it is about to catch up. It can't be a coincidence that the tornado rapidly intensified with that squall approaching. It's gotta be related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricStorm Posted January 12, 2023 Author Share Posted January 12, 2023 Quote Mesoscale Discussion 0055 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0100 PM CST Thu Jan 12 2023 Areas affected...central AL Concerning...Tornado Watch 18... Valid 121900Z - 122000Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 18 continues. SUMMARY...A strong to intense tornado (~EF3) is likely ongoing across central AL and after tornado demise, a wind-damage risk will likely continue into east-central AL. DISCUSSION...KBMX radar imagery shows an intense low-level mesocyclone moving through an adequately moist/moderately buoyant airmass across central AL. SPC data analytics indicates a strong/intense tornado is likely ongoing across Autauga County, AL. The area VAD/s show large hodographs with 300 m2/s2 0-0.5 km effective SRH. The strong shear/buoyancy will likely aid in sustaining the supercell after eventual tornado demise once the squall line overtakes the supercell. Nonetheless, a significant wind-damage threat and some tornado risk will likely continue into eastern AL through the mid afternoon. ..Smith.. 01/12/2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
