Chinook Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 (edited) 1 hour ago, NWOhioChaser said: Ohio is the place to be this year I guess. Remarkable statistics thus far. Perhaps we’re getting it out of the way now so when our actual severe season comes it’ll be quiet. But with a strong Nino transitioning to neutral to La Niña, I think we’re in a most unstable season compared to the previous years. seems like the SPC outlooks have been a dud for all the times when tornadoes couldn't hit my brother or sister. And then there's today, when there was a warning near my sister, again. Edited April 17 by Chinook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neoncyclone Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Sneaky enhanced for my region tomorrow, looks to be a mostly wind-driven risk, tornado probs are still a respectable 5% though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t looked at anything this morning. From the writeup yesterday, they were saying the tornado risk was driven from possibility of QLCS tornados within the line. Quite the active pattern over the last few weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite an impressive spring thus far for us. Edited April 18 by ak9971 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neoncyclone Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Got a couple maturing supercells approaching the MO/IL border. Looking pretty solid honestly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricStorm Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 After today looks like an overall lull in severe weather for about a week or so, but models are hinting at a potential system late next week. Still way too far out so it's just something to watch for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neoncyclone Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 One supercell clearly matured better than the other.. gotta watch this leading supercell, I think there is a legit tornado threat with it, especially if we get a constructive storm interaction.

SnowloverSid Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 We are getting quite the downpour here in St. Louis— although as I write this, it is slowing down. Still, it beats Tuesday evening’s yawner of a shower. Skies have that foreboding dark gray look to them, and I will be keeping my ears ready for hail.

SnowloverSid Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 There are tornado warnings within 10 miles of me— south and northeast. The rain is still coming down heavily, and I saw some bright lightning a few minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowlover2 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Quote Mesoscale Discussion 0488 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0612 PM CDT Thu Apr 18 2024 Areas affected...Southeast MO into southern IL...extreme southwest IN...and western KY Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 125... Valid 182312Z - 190045Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 125 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for severe hail and wind, along with an embedded tornado or two, will spread quickly eastward this evening. Eventual downstream watch issuance is likely. DISCUSSION...A broken line of thunderstorms moving across east-central/southeast MO into southwest IL has shown signs of accelerating eastward early this evening, as new cells have merged into the line near/north of the St. Louis area. Increasing outbound velocities have been noted from the KLSX radar, and damaging wind gusts of 60-75 mph may become an increasing threat through the evening as the line of storms moves quickly eastward into a region where modestly strong heating occurred this afternoon. Meanwhile, moderate instability will continue to support a hail threat with any embedded supercells. A modest increase in low-level flow/shear is expected ahead of the line this evening into south-central/southeast IL and southwest IN, which will support a threat of an tornado or two, both with any embedded supercells, and also with stronger QLCS mesovortices. The line of storms will likely approach the edge of WW 125 between 00-01Z, with downstream watch issuance likely into parts of southeast IL and southwest IN. ..Dean/Guyer.. 04/18/2024 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
