Not sure what "RF" stands for, but what you're seeing is radar interference

Thank you

Terre Haute storm is cranking hard again.

Possible tds on Eau Claire

Terre Haute storm is cranking hard again.

Looks like they decided to issue a SVR instead of a new TOR on it, though.

 

[Jpgood97]

Just popped up

Using KGRR radar. Southern radar doesn’t show it

 

[TH2002]

Cell near Frankfort may be a troublemaker soon, especially if it continues on its path towards the Fort Wayne area.

I suspect that it could be the result of sidelobe contamination on the KGRR radar. But we shall see whether or not that's the case...

EDIT: The tornado warning between Dowagiac and Decatur, MI, has been upgraded to "radar-confirmed".

"Range Folding" I believe, basically when velocity loses the thread on direction/intensity.

CC drop is visible on the SW Michigan storm from KIWX in Fort Wayne IN

 

[Clancy]

Yeah, fairly deep TDS in SW MI.

 

[kevinrock]

Confirmed TOR with cc drop just outside Decatur, MI

 

[TH2002]

Frankfort cell now has a TOR POSSIBLE tag on it.

[TH2002]

Centerville storm looks nasty. Could drop a tornado at any moment.

 

[atrainguy]

Kalamazoo is now tornado warned. Only radar indicated right now, although I believe this is the cell that dropped a brief tornado already.

 

[Tanner]

Yikes yikes yikes. Likely to be a significant tornado on the southern Michigan cell.

 

[TH2002]

That is a textbook supercell.
