TORE extended for Blair Airport and southeast Blair.

Edit: Looks like it was already there.

Yeah this is very stark and obvious on radar. Hook echo, couplet and debris signature. The warning for it also sounds dire, hopefully this monster doesn't hit much

 

[cincywx]

it is impressive how persistent that debris ball is on reflectivity. every time it gets a little bit smaller, it gets two times bigger.

 

[Clancy]

It's in an atrocious radar hole, but TORP for this storm in central NE.

 

[Equus]

More storms going tornadic to the south and we're only just now getting into the 10 hatch; very high end day

When an NWS met on duty says this.....

The radar velocity data have actually reached their maximum within the tornado circulation near Blair airport.

It unfortunately has hit a lot

This thing is coming up on the Fort Calhoun Nuclear Power Plant....

 

[Tanner]

now an nrot maxima of 3.97 in the heart of that rotation.

Really, I got 4.57?

 

[Tempestas Tonitrua]

This met has a really hard job and I respect the hell out of him for having to cover this event… but these city striking tornados really make you appreciate the job Spann does

Edit: KETV7 met

 

[Clancy]

To put this storm's ferocity and persistence in context, look at the trail of LSRs.

This thing is coming up on the Fort Calhoun Nuclear Power Plant....

I wish the tv Met would stop saying “I think this thing is on the ground”. That thing is still going

The storms popping up by Tulsa, OK are about to enter an even a more favorable environment than there currently is in NE!!

Storms firing along the dryline in OK!
