What is it with you and lightningOh my god. I think I actually just blew out my eardrums.
A lightning strike just happened right out on my street in front of my house.
My street is a lightning hot spot! I swear, my house nearly gets struck at least twice a year. It’s outrageous.What is it with you and lightning![]()





Damnit @Clancy you just HAD to mention my area at the end of your post huh? LOL!!!!! So far this feels like it could be a “typical” winter severe event. We will see how the D1s evolve tomorrow.Reflectivity, UH streaks, MUCAPE and SRH off the 00Z HRRR. Two (and a half?) things to note here. 1) compared to 18Z, HRRR has made the second round of activity more discrete and less of a messy cluster appearance - you can make out individual cells within the reflectivity. A mode like this might have less total areal coverage, but the risks would increase. 2) This run shows more robust early-day convection, which moves over the northern portions of Alabama and parts of NW GA before tapering off. This could hamper severe risk across northern Alabama later in the day. However, 2 1/2) if this scenario were to pan out, it may well set up a boundary around or north of I-20 for instability to build back in on and encourage more aggressive convection. Kinematic situation remains unchanged, it will be more than enough if other conditions allow for it. Tomorrow will likely mostly hinge on convective evolution - it's definitely an "iffy" setup, but it also has the potential to be significantly more productive than is immediately apparent. Very low floor but a ceiling that would certainly be a way to wake up to the winter tornado season here in the Southeast. Taken verbatim, the most favorable areas for tornadoes would be in a relatively small zone in east-central AL and west-central GA from roughly 18Z-00Z.
