Severe WX April 4th-6th, 2022 Severe Weather Threat

[OHWX97]

TDS southwest of Williams, SC.

Ulmer tornado appears to still be on the ground.

Tornado that hit Ulmer appears to have strengthened last scan and has a deeper TDS now.

THis storm that hit ulmer is a weird study. I don't think the original tornado ever dissipated looking at CC. The TDS just picked back up big time just north of Branchville, SC.

That’s a new tornado. There was a meso handoff after the Ulmer tornado occluded.

I'm on GR2AE and the CC drop never went away before producing a new tornado. I'll see if I can loop it and post it here, the original tornado never dissipated and no handoff ended up taking place.

Looks like it's trying to produce a debris ball on reflectivity as well

 

[Argus]

I'm in an area of the island that pretty much precludes spotting the storm. It has been pouring for the last few minutes.

It could be, but looking at radar loops, it looks like one continuous TDS to me.

Yeah I also don't think it was a new tornado, pretty big cc drop on latest scan too
Very curious about the Beaufort Cell (Savannah area), general motion has it towards Charleston proper but thinking it MAY skirt just off the coast before reaching that area.

I can't insert the proper link, but here it is:

The original tornado never dissipates. It's weird, because it looks like a handoff but it seems like the handoff never finished.

Yeah watching the last 30 frames it definitely weakens substantially but the TDS is continuous.

Looks like this is maybe incorrect and it may impact Charleston proper. Very close still though

Here's another video of the Pembroke-area tornado

You know what you’re right. Really weird. I remember Moore 2013 doing this as well. Looked like it was occluding then blew up again in eastern Moore.

Looking toward the west, there appear to be some breaks in the clouds toward Savannah.

It almost looks like the RFD was trying to cycle but the tornado moved into the area of the RFD and blew up again. Loop the velocities on GR2 if you have it, it looks really weird.

 

[xJownage]

That tornado is STILL holding on when it shouldn't be. Absolutely crazy tornado.

 

[buckeye05]

Ulmer damage on Twitter looks surprisingly tame so far. Assuming the main portion of the damage path hasn’t been photographed yet.

 

[OHWX97]

Way too close...

Life choices, people.
