[Argus]

Damage in Cullman per Spann.

As I suspected, the isolated cells that did fire further south are not able to get going. Convective blob to the north is inhibiting any real discrete development.

Except the cell near Walnut Grove developed South of the "blob" and has maintained itself after interaction. Oneonta cell as well.

Moderate is probably going to verify for hail.

It was issued specifically for tornadoes. Hail probabilities never went above 30% (Enhanced) criteria.

My friend sent pictures of the damage at his house 3 mi SE of Moulton. Huge limbs from a large oak tree fell across power line to his house and on his truck parked outside

New storms are trying to form, hopefully they do not go and form tornadoes.

 

[MichelleH]

I'm so glad you posted. I was worried about you.

Awww....thank you!

Good....

 

[Equus]

I will say, thus far, the HRRR seemed to do pretty well indicating the main area of concern.

 

[warneagle]

Yeah, I think I remember some of the earlier HRRR runs kept a cap in place over some of the southern part of the threat area (but this was several hours ago and my memory is quite bad these days).

Like the one with a nasty hook echo that's probably about to get a TOR?

 

[MichelleH]

OK, one of my weather besties has me concerned....does the Hanceville storm look suspicious to anyone?

I realize this. They are being absorbed into the said "blob" as we speak though. As I said, cells that fire in these type of situations tend either fire and never really take off, or get absorbed before they really get a chance too. I stand by my original statements.

 

[Equus]

Ashville storm south of the blob really looking concerning

 

[akt1985]

New tornado watch coming for north and central Georgia.

It won't for long once it gets absorbed by the larger complex to the north.

The moderate likely won't verify but lets let the event end before we repeatedly post about how its a bust.

 

[Brandon]

TDS on the storm that just passed through Boaz...

 

[NorthGaWeather]

It does. I'll be interested to see what comes out of it.

 

[NorthGaWeather]

I realize this.

Thanks!

Constant beautiful lightning lighting the tops to my far north.
