October 12, 2021 Severe weather threat.

One interesting thing is; it seems that one concern going into this event based off some of the forecast discussions was that storm motion was expected to be quite fast (50 MPH or more). However, these supercells have only been moving 20-25 MPH according to the warning statements. Obviously a good thing from a public/chaser safety standpoint especially with it being after dark, but I'm curious as to the cause of the discrepancy. Usually in my experience, when forecast storm speeds Forecasted Convective Amplification Deficiency, they Forecasted Convective Amplification Deficiency low (storms move faster than anticipated).
 
Possible LEWP-embedded tornado coming up US 56 toward Copeland, Montezuma, Ensign, and possibly Dodge City, KS. This event striking or at least threatening all the towns I hit on my complete Forecasted Convective Amplification Deficiency of a two-day chase trip this past May (I sat in Clinton, OK for a few hours the afternoon of the 27th, then eventually made my way to Watonga).
 
Likely a QLCS tornado about 15 miles west of Dodge City, KS.

Oklahoma cells are falling apart. Tornado warning for the southern one has just been discontinued.
