NWS New Orleans just blanket warned the line with a tornado warning. Don't see that often.

That's called piss poor meteorology. No excuse.

Man these are coming and going fast. Old circulation east of Bentonia is already occluding as a new one spins up immediately to the north.

 

[Kory]

Line is getting more segmented with some weaker embedded circulations. Incredible low level shear values.

BMX's radar is working fine but there is a communication issue, I pray that's fixed soon!!

 

[Bama Ravens]

Knock on wood, but it seems like the couplets aren't looking as good at the moment.

Well when I " scanned " the line in GR3..I counted 7 circulations in BR/SRV modes. Plus wind speeds 90-110 so damage/threat to life would be equal to EF0/11 damage. With all that in mind think it was much more "efficient" to do that than play "whack a mole" Again in my opinion.

Tornado watch may be coming soon for North and Central Alabama.

The Storm Prediction Center may be issuing a tornado watch for most of the Valley soon.

Maybe, but then it raises your false alarm ratio and puts tons of people under a warning even though most of them aren't in the line of fire.

HRRR really shows the line weakening as it enters al tomorrow. Cape is pretty meager. You guys think slight risk is still warranted for AL? Looks like some decent rains regardless.

Sent from my SM-G950U using TalkWeather mobile app

I'm gonna go with yes on the slight risk.
