Severe Weather Threat 4/27-4/28, 2024 - (Saturday, Sunday)

[Marios Wallace]

Cell in Marietta is getting it's act together on the durant radar. Expect tornadogenesis in the next 30 minutes, just like the rest of these storms tonight.

 

[SmokeEater]

Man, it's like a broken record tonight. Geez.

I'm getting tired of typing this, more now...

Far western Johnston circulation is rapidly increasing as well. Tornado may be imminent.

 

[Fred Gossage]

Such a gross dereliction of duty by our federal government that Durant has to get their own radar. For a literal rounding error on our national budget we could add a handful of NEXRAD sites to fill infamous radar gaps and save lives. Don't even get me started on funding for R&D and deployment of future WSR-88D replacements.

The public availability of the data and the hoops you have to jump through in order to see anything from it as someone outside of the NWS or a Baron broadcast client in Oklahoma is the bigger p!$$-off, given that the whole radar project is tax-payer funded and is owned and run by a tax-payer funded government entity.

TDS east of Overbrook, it's down.

 

[Clancy]

Cell near Mill Creek intensifying again.

Circulation southwest of Mill Creek by 1-3 miles has rapidly intensified. A significant tornado is possible here. Circulation may come close to Mill Creek.
