Severe Weather 2025

everyone please be safe if your in Oklahoma , its likely going to be a day of intense deviant hybrid tornadoes.

could very well be a day with a lot of fatalities if one forms in the wrong spot.

don't get close to these tornadoes , it could likely be similar to a jarrell / plainfield like event

Just to make sure I'm reading this correctly you think something like the Jarrell tornado could happen with this event?

sadly kind of yes.

but a slightly less cape , more sheared , more wet , and instead of the boundary being vertical its more horizontal
the rest is pretty jarrell like.

you might of herd how Plainfield had no warning , or how jarrell's risk wasn't that high and then boom a big famous southward moving intense tornado happens.

however it seems like most models or forecast never take into account hybrid events.
there is a other event that tends to give a lot of boom and its when a MCV (Mesoscale convective vortex) passes before supercells form.

MCV and hybrid tornadoes seem to be the leading cause of tornado boom events.

if all 8 parameters fit with the (best) group , that's when to watch out.
 
Isn’t a hybrid tornado just a landspout that transitions into a traditional tornado? What makes those more dangerous?
yes and no.

there seems to be 2 hybrid tornado types.

1:transition hybrid (jarrell) (starts as a landspouts and then moves into a mesocyclone and then turns hybrid)
2:classic hybrid (elie) (starts under a mesocyclone already a hybrid)

as for more dangerous think of it like this...
if a landspout can be considered strong enough to be violent rotating column of air.... then imagen what happens if a landspout forms under or moves into a mesocyclone, pretty much its getting a double boost of both landspout and supercellier mode happening


also at this very momment MLCAPE is over 5500+ and SBCAPE is over 6500+

I think he is saying that tornadoes will start as landspouts then latch onto any nearby supercells? I think the emphasis is less on hybrids and more on actual intense tornado possibility.

Hybrids also aren't very different than normal tors, I think Greenfield may have started as a landspout.

greenfield was a transitional hybrid tornado. i think it was the only quick moving one as well.
 
I'd more be asking why particular scheme he's presenting evades scientific literature and mischaracterises certain events (like Joplin)
I for one think his research is awesome, and I love his outside the box thinking. Absolutely nothing wrong with it, even if it ends up being wrong.
