Latest HRRR is very nasty for East Texas and West Lousianna starting in about a hour or two. FWIW

I actually just noticed a supercell could go through my area on that HRRR run…

I will say, the fact a storm produced a tornado in a non favorable environment is concerning.

It actually was aided by it being in the bow echo apex. (I think lol. Don't quote me)

Yeah quite common

I like using the HRRR for simulated radar during a event. What got me to use it even close to events is how it predicted some of the supercells that started rotating near west blocton in Alabama on March 15th. Almost on the dot, everybody thought things where done and I was like hold up. The HRRR shows some significant storms to start rotating near there in a hour or two. And lo and behold it happened lol.

That's really good to know! The more tools the better. I'll start using it again.

Is it just me, but does it look like some of the storms are trying to become discrete?

It feels so disgusting outside right now. Beyond humid and feels like a tropical rainforests

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Couple mesocyclones developing in extreme east Texas now.

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Storm near Newton Texas is warned now

 

[Kds86z]

Couple warnings out of SE tx

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Ridiculous structure with this one. But no real meso on it lol

I know I said I hoped they went with a MDT earlier, but given the relative lack of strong tornado activity I think ENH was the right call.

It’s about to get wild at my place.

 

[UncleJuJu98]

Cell near deriddler LA may cause issues soon.

 

[AJS]

There is a big cell approaching my area in the next hour or so.

 

[AJS]

Idk what it is, but I have such an ominous feeling something is going to happen.

 

[AJS]

The storm near Alleyton has my attention. It’s growing in size.

@Grand Poo Bah how are the cape values in the area right now. I’m driving around and it feels so weird outside.

@Grand Poo Bah how are the cape values in the area right now. I’m driving around and it feels so weird outside.

81.0°F/75.0°F in your area. I know that feels really miserable.
