Severe WX April 1-2 (overnight) Severe Weather Event


I love when Chief Met's at news stations in the heart of Tornado Alley start tweeting like 12 year old weather weenies.

Incredibly stupid tweet. He has an audience that listens to everything he says and posts. The average person has no clue what that tweet is showing. This is unintentional fearmongering by failing to provide a definition as to what he's looking at.
 
Moisture appears to continue to be ahead of schedule. High Res Models still catching up. Moisture on the 15z HRRR is not insignificantly better than the 14Z HRRR. I fully expect a moderate risk by the mid afternoon update for NC OK/SC KS from roughly OKC to Wichita and east through Tulsa and Chanute.

Was just about to mention that. Interested to see this new Day 1 outlook here in 15 minutes.

Whenever I see anyone trying to put out such specific forecasts, I just cringe because it's shooting yourself in the foot. You're almost certainly going to be measurably wrong in one way or another, and people aren't gonna care what kind of wrong you are so long as the takeaway is "the guy on TV was wrong."

I mean I would definitely trust him with that professional Twitter profile picture that he has.

OUN already stated no changes expected other then a few tweaks to lines.
 
Yeah seriously lol

David Payne of News 9 made this outlook hours before SPC dipped the 10% hatched to OKC, but at least he nailed Norman's prediction. My personal opinion, I prefer Payne over Morgan any day of the week, even if both go nuts over tornadoes.

If you ever want to see 45 minutes of insanity, watch Mike Morgan’s interview on James Spann’s WeatherBrains podcast after the infamous “drive south” broadcast.

I am going to find and watch this immediately.
 
I don’t want to derail the thread anymore, because this is an extremely potent look for Oklahoma today. But it is a shame a place like Oklahoma that is so tornado prone has to put up with “ratings wars” amongst its TV stations with clowns like Mike Morgan.
