Severe WX Severe Threat 25 March 2021

[Kory]

This potential tornado will likely take the same track as last week.

Tornado Warning.

Rotation flattened out a little on the last scan (per GRL3). This cell is a little far South of the best storm dynamics but anything can happen.

I’m in Jackson, TN (SW TN) I figured a watch would have been issued for us by now?

 

[bwalk]

New area of rotation beginning to develop NW of Birmingham. Needs watching.

UAH SWIRRL just launched a balloon at 11:30 CDT.

I can't remember how long it takes to get readings back. Anyone?

cell getting sus, but i think it’s elevated

 

[MattW]

The cell in Georgia over Rockmart wants to rotate. Still quite broad, but definitely a severe storm.

Definitely reminding me a lot of 3/17, lots of rotation on those storms but it seems like the instability just isn't there right now because of the cloud cover.

3” of rain in Guntersville in under an hour. Spent all morning in flood water cleaning out ditches so our house wouldn’t flood.

Tor warned cell in AL beginning to spike on velocity.

Good comparison. Just that one key dynamic missing at the moment. We will see how the deepening surface low change things.

 

[warneagle]

Rotation is picking up east of Eutaw.

These storms are for sure becoming surface based. Further west, the SLP needs to start deepening because low level shear is rather lousy according to the JAN VAD.

Nothing out there to disrupt this Hale/Green county storm. Looking ahead, if it maintains itself, it won't be the classic Tuscaloosa -> Pleasant Grove -> Fultondale track, it'll be a good bit south of there.

Edit: not saying it's goign to put down a 100 mile tornado, or if it'll produce anything at all.

 

[Equus]

Akron storm very impressive from GWX

This will be our first tornado on the ground...no doubt.

Big time CC drop on the storm NE of Birmingham

That's weird bc I am not seeing hardly any rotation per SRV but it does appear to be a big CC drop.

The CC drop is displaced from the precip, so this likely doesn't tell us much.

 

[kcyalater]

CC drop appears to be data con on that cell
