Severe weather threat 4/23/26 (Central/Southern Plains)

[eep]

Note that we should have a breather for a bit after this as the new convection will force the storms to re-organize.

I don't know if I've seen an observed warning covering an entire line of storms. Specifically referring to the line north and northeast of Wichita. Quite unusual.

 

[Tennie]

Back to the north, Des Moines, Iowa, has several tornado warnings around it.

 

[speedbump305]

The Braman storm looks its occluding and attempting to drop a new area of rotation if i’m reading the radar correctly.

There is a discrete storm to the west of Waukomis, Oklahoma, to the southwest of the current storms.

Yeah, that's a first for me. Wild

I’m not completely righting off central and southern Oklahoma… but the lack of significant convection attempts is getting hard to ignore. I truly believe that 30 years ago this would have been a regional outbreak in Oklahoma but things have just changed. Will see what happens in the next hour or so.

Might be on the ground again.

Check out the cells right near Frederick, OK. Been doing more than any others that were there before.

The structure on this storm literally looks so similar to 2013 El Reno.

They’ve also be near steady state for 30+ minutes.

I'm really not understanding all this 04/28/24 erasure.

Hopefully it just ends up being little more than a low-budget bootleg version of El Reno '13 (knock on wood!).

 

[speedbump305]

The Braman storm if i’m reading the radar correctly looks to be developing a big area of rotation and should be monitored closely.

He’s more referring to diurnal outbreaks west of the I-35 corridor. @A Guy has noted a similar observation.

 

[eep]

I kinda wonder if this is gonna become a Tornadic Supercell Chain. Anyways I kinda expect the Enid cell to be the next tornado producer at some point.

I’m not saying that outbreaks can’t happen but the number of conditional days that get it done has definitely dropped by a bit insignificant amount.

 

[TornadoFan]

Storm near Enid, Oklahoma already has echo tops pushing 50,000 feet.

 

[UpperLevelLOL]

Is the Enid storm about to split?

 

[Kolle]

Des Moines (metro pop. of 750,000) is under the gun right now. Thankfully, velocities are not too impressive.
