What is this “moving east” thing I see people say with sig TORs? I don’t get it

Mesoscale Discussion 0095

Areas affected...Middle/Upper TX Coast
Concerning...Tornado Watch 27...
Valid 241850Z - 242045Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 27 continues.
SUMMARY...Environment across the middle and upper TX coast remains
favorable of supercells capable of tornadoes. In particular, a
corridor of relatively higher tornado threat may exist from Wharton
County into Fort Bend County for the next hour or two.
DISCUSSION...Recent surface analysis places a surface low about 50
miles north of VCT entering Colorado County TX. A warm front extends
eastward from this low into Galveston Bay. Conditions south of this
front are characterized by temperatures in the low 70s and dewpoints
in the upper 60s. Based on recent forecast soundings and
mesoanalysis, these conditions appear to support surface-based
buoyancy. Very strong wind fields remain in place, with surface wind
gusts to 30 kt and the HGX VAD showing 70 kt at 1 km. STP is around
3 for much of the warm sector.
As a result, the warm sector environment appears very supportive of
supercells capable of tornadoes. Of particular interest currently is
the storm entering western Wharton county, largely because of its
location within the open warm sector and very favorable conditions
downstream. As a result, the corridor from Wharton County into Fort
Bend County may have a relatively higher threat for tornadoes over
the next hour or two.

Better low level inflow usually I think.

careful, that might be radar clutter lol. Although the environment today could produce that.
Overall things have been relatively take, let's hope it stays that way.
My main take away is the better storms have outran the moisture. And the clutter really cut down on a mature lifecycle of the supercells in the current warm sector. Still a long 24 hours.

This cell is huge trouble, deviant right motion should keep it in clear area away from mergers

That was has pretty good low level rotation with how close to the radar beam it is.
Woah! That rotation is very strong!
TDS now with very significant low level rotation!
TDS now with very significant low level rotation!
Oh no!!
TDS with it. Also, a storm chaser reported seeing power flashes and debris.
Very strong rotation in the low levels!
