Severe Weather Threat 4/27-4/28

[Maxis_s]

Debris seems to be tossed all over the place on tilt 3. I'd estimate debris to be over 15kft-20kft now. Intense tornado ongoing, tornado emergency could be needed if this continues.

This area just took a direct hit. Tons of rural houses in the path of this thing.

Please tell me that cell to the west of this one isn't rotating.

think we need a warning on the storm to the west shortly. The couplet would warrant it IMO.

Edit: it weakened a bit right after I finished typing this.

This is awful.

This is in the 5% CIG1 area, btw. Reminders of Thursday...

Completely by itself out in front on everything, easy long tracker potential, the environment really isn’t going to become unfavorable for another 6 hours at the max.

cc drop went as low as .21, which is on the extreme side of the scale. wow.

 

[Grand Poo Bah]

Tons of mobile homes look like they were hit

 

[eep]

Think it dropped a bit intensity but that thing is not dying anytime soon.

 

[TornadoFan]

Still a very significant signature on this tornado.

I didn’t zoom in enough when I commented on how rural the area was. They’re spaced out, but there were more homes there than I was anticipating.

Sure hope I am wrong, but given the nature of the tornado and the area, I could see this being a really bad situation.

that was a quick cycle. couplet is increasing in intensity. reflectivity is a blob but cc drop still present and velocities as impressive as they’ve been.

Don’t love the track it’s on right now. Batesville isn’t small l

In the words of Rocky Balboa... ain't nothing over 'till it's over.

 

[Maxis_s]

Occlusion is starting. Cell is likely getting a new batch of inflow from a merger on its left flank.

 

[Muwx]

The cell to its west is also rotating. There are a ton of houses on the north shore of the lake.

 

[slenker]

What an infuriating event. I was so happy thinking we got away from this with minimal impacts, but nope. 2026 decides to plow an intense+ tornado straight through a semi-populated area with mobile homes at night.

TDS just deepened again....
