Severe Weather 2026

I’m hoping with the next generation radar phased array radar can not only do all the stuff that would be technologically better than the current radar but also fill in all the radar gaps too but I’m still thankful we still have wsr88d radars

The texas/ok radar hole is partially filled by the Durant radar, which is publicly accessible via the Durant weather app. I wonder if there are radar apps that incorporate it.

Feels like the GFS has been insistent on a quality, broad/amplified (but not too amplified), negatively-tilted trough eventually digging into the West and ejecting across the central CONUS for about the last six weeks, but it always gets pushed further out in time and never actually verifies. 06Z run that just came in has it at about FH354.

Do we eventually bump into the "stopped clock" paradox, or just keep kicking the can down the road until next spring?

Also extremely far out but the Euro AI ensemble has a very strong signal for 300 hours out

Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas maybe? Why not I guess

I'm betting more heavy rain/flood risk than severe weather

meso vortex at eastern canada at nova scotia , makes it look like a giant hook but with poor amount of rain.

Pretty far out to tell I think it’s 190 or something hours out when we can get a clear signal but shows a signal for a trough but whether it’s a long wave or shortwave is maybe too far out to tell not really sure

A rather conditional, low end scenario but the Euro seems to like a trough digging more SE on the 11th and inducing a low end svr setup over W Kentucky with strong ascent on the end of the 300mb jet max. Given lack of strong moisture return, threat may be more precluded.
