News 9 noting a hook developing on the Hennessey storm.

 

[SmokeEater]

Brief touchdowns with the TW'd cell near Marietta.

 

[Tempestas Tonitrua]

So far these storms (much like May 6th) have not been able to tap into the full potential. If we can avoid some overnight trouble the SPC not going with the high risk was a good call.

This thing really fell apart from the D2 outlook, kind of the story of 2024. Big days, small results. Small days, big results. I definitely emphasize with those who chase.

Giraffes with 15kft tall necks?

I think they're thinking more like birds/bats/insects/etc., but that mental image is too amusing to ignore regardless!

Giraffes with 15kft tall necks?

just throwing out a theory. Those spots are visible from KTLX but not KFDR

What radar am I supposed to use?

 

[wx_guy]

KS storm's mesocyclone strength index is down to about 4000 and looks considerably weaker on velocity scans. Interesting...

What radar am I supposed to use?

Just drive out there with a DOW

 

[wx_guy]

What radar am I supposed to use?

There's not a close one, sadly. DFW is probably the closest I'd guess.

 

[TornadoFan17]

What radar am I supposed to use?

Radar hole but spotter confirmed. Still not upgraded to confirmed though.

 

[wx_guy]

Looks like TOR in KS has been lifted.

 

[Tennie]

A wind turbine blade near Selig, OK, was reportedly bent backward. It's currently unclear whether it was straight or tornadic winds that did the deed.

 

[TornadoFan]

Pretty low base on that storm near Marietta, OK.

 

[TH2002]

CC drop south of Overbrook, OK. Can't tell if it's tornado related or not.

 

[TornadoFan17]

Always feels like TORs find a way to a radar hole. Would really like another radar spot between DFW, OKC, and Shreveport.

 

[TornadoFan17]

OK TOR is now confirmed.

 

[Evan]

What radar am I supposed to use?

Durant radar.

 

[Kds86z]

OK TOR is now confirmed.

Uh oh
