Severe WX Severe Weather Thread - 6/15/26 - 6/18/26

Changing subjects, should there be a seperate severe weather thread for the remnants of Arthur? There is a Tornado Watch for southeast Louisiana and southern Mississippi.

Nah. It’s the 18th. I just posted that tornado watch here.

Haven't heard of any significant damage in Florence yet. Tons of reports of trees and power lines down though.

There is a new Tornado Warning for a cell that could impact the northern Cincinnatti suburbs.

Yup. This one will be a threat for areas like Hamilton and West Chester.

Hey @buckeye05 , you said drillbit some pages back for this potential picture of that Indiana violent tornado. What’s that mean exactly? Is this a violent looking slim tornado like London 2025?

“Drillbit” is chaser slang, referring to a thin, narrow looking but violent tornado.

Ok thanks. Sometimes tornadoes look
Violent but aren’t and vice versa. Wasn’t sure if there’s a way to tell.

The storm to the west of Harrison, Ohio looks increasingly good on velocity from the terminal radar.

 

[buckeye05]

Just heard a report of a business with its entire roof torn off in Florence, KY.

Also those with terminal radar access keep the images coming if things ramp up again.

I don't trust the tornado warned storm in Clermont County (moving into Brown Co.) one bit. Storms around here seem to like to spin up around Mount Orab.

 

[buckeye05]

Warning extended into Ohio but things are starting to look really messy.

Looks like yet another pendant, this time west of downtown Cincinnati, per CVG td. This one is on the tail end, so it's worth keeping an eye on.

@buckeye05

That looks fake to me

Edit: actually on second glance I’m second guessing myself. I’m not sure though.
