Severe WX March 29-30, 2022 Severe Event

[Evan]

That's violent.

 

[warneagle]

Obvious debris ball on reflectivity.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

63 Dbz debris ball, seems to be over trees right now but not 100% sure

Yeah, fortunately this is very rural area (Talladega National Forest). Still probably some homes/mobile homes out there, though.

 

[TH2002]

Having to switch between radar sites constantly now and counting three couplets in AL alone. This is complete madness.

 

[warneagle]

New tornado warning for Tuscaloosa, including the city.

 

[BayouWeatherGeek]

Every town with a pervious tornado history is getting hit tonight.

Unreal...

 

[Evan]

You never want to see unresolved bins and RF bins. Never ends well.

Unreal...

I live in Cullman County. Shh...

 

[TornadoFan]

You never want to see unresolved bins and RF bins. Never ends well.

Can you explain that in layman's terms?

 

[172556]

TDS measures 2 miles wide at 1600'.

 

[warneagle]

PDS warning now.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Can you explain that in layman's terms?

Winds are so strong the radar basically says "does not compute" and flips the velocities over (you see inbounds where outbounds should be and vice versa).

Thank you!

 

[warneagle]

Can you explain that in layman's terms?

basically the radar equivalent of an overflow error I think?

 

[TH2002]

This speaks for itself.

 

[Equus]

That is an extremely intense tornado. We are fortunate today's environment only allowed a few such cells

 

[MattPetrulli]

Appears to be beginning to weaken, at least hopefully the Centreville cell. Curious if it crosses the path of last year's EF3.

 

[warneagle]

I feel like this is a taste of what this environment would've been capable of if we had had some discrete warm-sector convection.

 

[NorthGaWeather]

TDS up to 13,000 ft per BMX. Noted it could be a continuation of the initial tornado in Greene or a new one. Survey will have to figure that out.

 

[Tennie]

Going by CC, the circulation is already starting to centrifuge out debris.
