Believe it, or not, we had almost a day and a half that we were convinced that there was good strong potential of severe thunderstorm tornado activity for central Oklahoma. |
If a tornado went over a row of trees and didn't hit a house, there was no way to estimate the scale. |
It was apparent that many of the speeds used in the estimates were too large. The scale guiding wind speeds wasn't in tune with reality. |
It was looking like it would totally dominate everything else. |
Missouri got banged this weekend. |
The scale guiding wind speeds wasn't in tune with reality. |
There's virtually nothing to stop the cold air from off of Hudson Bay from flowing down across the midlands. So you get good contrast: the warm air coming up -- the cold air coming down -- and where they meet is your typical frontal location. |
We are looking at the possibility of tornadoes and a very good chance of damaging winds. Strong wind gusts will be happening throughout eastern Mississippi and western Alabama. |
We don't have any severe forecasts for tomorrow. The activity will be today. |
