The SRH definitely helped produce the multiple strong tornadoes we've seen today though, has to be one of the crazier days i've seen for cyclic supercells.

Meteorologist Ingyball Posted April 20, 2023 Meteorologist Share Posted April 20, 2023 I issued my first tor warning today which became a confirmed tornado. Sounds like it did do some damage and it overturned a semi. Thankfully it didn't hit a more populated area though, both circulations had vrots around 70kts for multiple scans. Missed all the action in Oklahoma because I was so busy with that cell. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
