When we talk about shear for tornado production, we're primarily focusing on low-level shear. When we talk about shear having a negative impact on a hurricane, we're typically talking about shear higher up in the atmosphere. Even though you're not a met, you sure know more than a few local *cough* met's on tv here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Sentinel Posted October 9 Admin Share Posted October 9 @StretchCT You named this correctly - This is certianly D Day with this hurricane. PDS Tornados, re-intensification, sweeping across the entirety of the peninsula. This is going to wreak havoc. Geese. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these tornadoes are coming from essentially discrete supercells, not really even outer bands. The smaller/short-lived ones tend to occur closer to the hurricane. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met or not, you have a pretty good grasp on atmospheric sciences and dynamics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counting on that right hook to recurve back to the east soon… but certainly the longer it waits, the worse it looks for Clearwater/St Pete/Tampa. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know relatively little compared to some of the non-meteorologists on this and other boards though. Not at all dismissing people who have the degree as they worked hard to get that and their knowledge goes without saying, but the talent of some of the non-mets is phenomenal. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ak9971 Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 Strongest rotation outside of the PDS warning seems to be just NE of Lake O now. Luckily a pretty unpopulated area. It is noted observed in the warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
