Yep, this one dependant on mergers but threat is there.

This thing is having a giant surge of inflow (atleast appears so on velocity) wonder if it'll drop. Also goes up a few tilts, so its atleast persistant

That appears to be a potentially significant tornado imminent right over Kachina Village. Not good. Nasty situation possible if this goes the full way

Yeesh.

Wouldnt be shocked if it dropped a strong+ tornado (if not OTG currently, it corresponds with a very light drop in CC.)
Velocity ramped up drastically, not good at all

Also, why the heck isnt this tornado warned? This is the best its looked all day and velocity is absurd for a Arizona morning in October
Edit: as soon as I posted, got warned

Whatever is happening on that next scan better not be down. That is one heck of a signature in the SW US.

It's moving right towards the airport as well.

Very dangerous situation if this thing puts down. VROT if that signature is fully legit is 60 kts.

Dodging a huge bullet currently. That bullet might not be dodged for long though. If this doesn't drop, i will be shocked.

Via traffic cam right south of the circulation.

E Flagstaff traffic cam currently. Circulation passed over this area and it only just updated.

Thinking surface stability just stopped what could've been a major tornado in S Flagstaff. Circulation weakening now. How that hasn't dropped is insane.

Yeah, surface based CAPE is barely 500 where the storm is. Surface stability probably just stopped an intense+ tornado
