Max Velocity saw more people parking under overpasses and is now crashing out!

People, how many times do we have to tell you to NOT park under overpasses until you finally stop doing it!?

It's getting late for me. I'm going to call it a night. In the meantime, I hope all of you also get a good night's sleep as well!

Yeah I’m not really getting the logic behind the PDS warning in Arkansas. No debris signature either, and it’s in a radar hole.

Tangentially related but I do remember a trailer park in Nashville, AR getting hit by a fatal EF2 QLCS tornado back in 2015 during that outbreak sequence that produced Bridge Creek, OKC, Cisco, Delmont, and Van. The radar hole was so bad there was no sign that anything significant had happened in Nashville until the morning after.

I believe JAN has issued one or two TORPs that were radar-indicated in the past, though in those cases there was a very clear and extremely ominous TVS present.

Somehow it kinda seems like both overconvection and capping killed today's threat in OK, interesting.

Are you basing that on what he said this morning or more recent? He ended up completely wrong on today being significant at least in OK. I get the feeling that tomorrows threat has kinda just become more explosive with the parameters from today likely persisting into tomorrow.

I don't know if I'd trust model output until tomorrow, the HRRR already botched today quite a bit.

Oh ok. Yeah I’m no expert.. but I did see something about a nocturnal KS/MO threat.

Can’t post but pics starting to come in from Runaway Bay are showing major damage. Destroyed structures, scattered debris, and tossed and damaged vehicles.
