Severe WX Historic April 27-May 1 2024 Midwest Storms

[JPWX]

What in the sweet world is going on in Oklahoma? Don't think I've ever seen supercells move this slow. They were even moving west earlier.

That could pose a significant flash flood event if they don't start moving faster. Seems like you have backbuilding going on too.

May be a TOG east of Hollister, OK

 

[Zabwxaj]

TDS near Holister? Seems like these have been in the same area for awhile rotating around.

 

[TH2002]

Yikes, NWS Norman seems to think it is indeed a TDS and went with a PDS warning

 

[andyhb]

High, and I mean high end velocity signatures NE of Hollister OK.

 

[Clancy]

Crazy things happening near Hollister on this nearly-stationary cell. I'm sure it's happened before, but I haven't personally quite seen storms like these that I can remember.

 

[SmokeEater]

Yea.... That's a VERY high end tornado signature. Completely wrapped in rain too.

 

[SmokeEater]

205 kt couplet at 500 feet, Jesus.

 

[JPWX]

And only moving at 10mph

 

[TH2002]

Ok... yeah... definitely a TDS

3.89 NROT. Big TDS.
Edit: I'm getting values well above 4.2 now.

 

[TornadoFan]

That's a major yikes.

 

[SmokeEater]

Wedge now reported, it's hitting some mobile homes out there.

Holy...

[TornadoFan]

Good grief, the velocities are just off the charts.

 

[Clancy]

 

[tornado examiner]

Might see some violent scouring out of this one

 

[Clancy]

Hoping that's mostly trees and dirt in there. That's a big, persistent TDS and this thing is moving so slow.
