I disagree about banning tweets. As you stated, too much good info comes from them in a nice, tidy package. No different than posting maps, soundings, etc. Where I do agree is we've let this thread lumber on for 11 days and that is too long. Jay has already addressed that, and in the future we probably should start locking threads for a couple of days if they keep getting piled on like this one.I already feel bad about this outburst because idk what the solution is.
Personally, I'm leaning towards banning tweets. There's definitely some great content we'll miss out on by doing it, but there's a few users who are completely ruining it for everyone else. Sacrificing a few, scattered high-value tweets to stop the mountains of slop might be worth it?
Incredibly saturated LLLRs, 700 mb warm nose and a highly subtle surface inversion. We will see what this environment does.except for the lowest lapse rates i dont see a single true issue to be honest

also VTP is at 124.6 the highest ive ever seen.
however VTP is flawd cause its poorly made and never had a limit on the LR and 3CAPE (CVTP is a fix of that)

That’s definitely part of the reason why the storms are taking a good while to get going, but they are slowly getting their acts together.Incredibly saturated LLLRs, 700 mb warm nose and a highly subtle surface inversion. We will see what this environment does.

How a man's opinion can fiercely change in a hour from significant long track tornadoes to upscale and EML slop is game changingThe cap is definitely holding right now and with the sun going down there may not be enough new juice to overcome the EML. These dryline storms on the Western border will probably grow upscale very quickly. Not as confident as I was a few hours ago. They do seem to be taking a slightly Eastward turn as the 300 mb jet catches up to them, which could keep them isolated longer.

That is if it can survive the hostile thermodynamics. Kinematics have some slight issues though.Also isn’t the Fargo cell just on the cusp of the 300 Mb jet I’m willing to bet it probably will do something
The secret is to embrace the crow. mmmmm, yummy yummy crow! lolHow a man's opinion can fiercely change in a hour from significant long track tornadoes to upscale and EML slop is game changing
Learned from past experience, ask questions if neededThe secret is to embrace the crow. mmmmm, yummy yummy crow! lol
Although, the Fargo supercell is renewing my interest. Looks like Brandon Copic is shooting for the core, which is very brave considering it probably has grapefruit sized hail lmao. The amount of forcing required to get that high is insane. There's likely 100-150 mph vertical winds up in there!
over 20+ km high tops by the way...Woah the storm near Fargo just exploded to almost 70k feet. As a novice, I didn't even realize echo tops got that high!
