SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 7… 8…
An intense tornado with experimental tornado guidance suggestive of wind speeds 125-175 mph based on recent volume scans of rotational velocity and the significant tornado parameter. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 7… 8…
The potential for tornadoes is seemingly most favorable with storms near and east of the surface low and as storms move within the warm frontal zone where pressure falls are maximized. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 7…
Risk for damaging wind gusts and isolated tornadoes continues with the squall line across the MS/AL border. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 7…
Strong tornado potential appears to be maximizing over east-central AL through 3pm CST. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 8…
Tornado potential will continue to increase over the next hour with supercells evolving from a cluster of storms in far east-central AL as this activity moves into west-central GA. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Tornado Watch 8…
Supercell tornado potential will increase during the next 2 hours coincident with the increasing number and maturation of supercells over southeast AL and adjacent parts of southwest GA. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Severe Potential… Tornado Watch Likely
The initial signs of discrete convective development are occurring late this morning in the warm sector. Rapid environmental changes are forecast to occur between 10am CST/11am EST and the mid afternoon. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Severe Potential… Watch Possible
A locally damaging wind threat may develop this morning. Convective trends will be monitored in the short term as to whether a tornado watch will be needed prior to an expected tornado watch issuance time by the 11am-12pm period. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Severe Potential… Watch Unlikely
A strong storm or two could produce small hail and perhaps some gusty winds through early morning. The overall severe threat will remain limited, and a watch is not expected. Continue reading
SPC Mesoscale Discussion: Severe Potential… Watch Unlikely
An isolated damaging wind gust or brief tornado cannot be ruled out over the next few hours. Continue reading
