Severe Weather 2025

[Ledian]

The storm that's approaching me...oh boy, my roof might be about to get some good hail exercise. I'll let y'all know how it goes

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Not sure if that's sidelobe contamination near red bay Alabama, but that's a decent rotation if not.

 

[Kds86z]

Getting pretty strong, may be trying to reach for the ground here soon. That's a killer hook.

Nice hook. Got a shower and expected to come back to new tornado warnings but one we had expired haha

 

[Jpgood97]

Looks like the velocity is displaced from the hook echo. May be outflow dominant, definitely bears watching though

 

[Ledian]

Not only am i getting a hail threat...velocity shows it might be trying to do something else.

If you must, please wait until you're past town

Let’s hope @Ledian !

LCLs are too high and the storm is too icy/cold with its RFD to do anything meaningful tornado-wise. Classic wall cloud outbreak stuff.

Fine by me! I think most of us have seen enough tornadoes for the next year after last weekend.

Perhaps after dark

There might be a 1-2 hour window shortly after sunset for some mischief near the GWX radar.

 

[Ledian]

There’s the severe thunderstorm warning i was expecting.

May or may not somehow dodge the hail, but i ain’t too confident

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Lots of severe thunderstorms across the deep south currently.

 

[Matt Grantham]

Yep that is classic sidelobe contamination, reflecting the velocity from higher parts of the updraft.

KGWX basically summons twisters at this point, so this is to be expected.

 

[Ledian]

I love how RadarScope (on my end, at least) decides now is a good time to start being late with updating scans

Yeah need those lcls lower after sunset

 

[JPWX]

KGWX basically summons twisters at this point, so this is to be expected.

Actually, I summon the twisters somehow, but that's up for debate (as Johnny keeps looking for that off switch)

18Z GFS decided to play ball with a tornado outbreak next Sunday.

Verbatim, that trough is a bit too narrow-wavelength, with too much of a meridional (N-S, although I've seen worse in that regard) component to the flow in the exit region for me to be confident in calling that a tornado outbreak setup at this range. Although, one thing it suggests is that moisture will be much less of a question mark further north compared to these previous two systems.

 

[Ledian]

Somehow missed either most of or all of the hail with this one...i'm shocked.

Could be my first chase of the season. Lord I think we’ve already had enough of tornadoes this year!
