This right here is a BIG Problem for tomorrow, this is the bulk shear on the HRRR. Those vectors are almost perfectly parallel to the front even out across the warm sector. With no cap as well, this just spells instant cluster/linear storm mode….

Vortex Dynamics in hilly / mountainous terrain is something I’m very interested in & would love to do research on throughout my meteorological career. This tornado was captured in just a couple miles south of Athens, OH. Notice the parent tornado weaken & broad out as it rides up

Ensemble agreement for the beginning of April is quite scary across the Ohio Valley. While we have 5-7 days and a lot of things to digest as we get closer, this is sounding of all alarm bells for a potential big time event (IF things fall in the right place). A lot can / will

Scary new HRRR run as it shows prefrontal supercells ahead of an ongoing squall with on going embedded supercells in the line. Tuesday is definitely shaping up to be scary, I’ll have a video posted tonight discussing this upcoming setup

HRRR proximity sounding from the Wapakoneta, OH tornado from yesterday. Unbelievable. Still would say that’s one of the most intimidating tornadoes I’ve ever seen next to Bremen/Hartford, KY from Dec 10, 2021.

Here at this address in Bremen and holy cow….
In addition to this two-story home being completely swept away from its foundation near Bremen, part of the concrete foundation has disappeared. Notice how part of the driveway is literally scoured away. This is as extreme as tornado damage gets.

After talking about solar eclipses in Astronomy lecture today, this has gotten me very hyped for the next Solar Eclipse on April 8th, 2024. Just imagining a shot of a total solar eclipse on Lake Erie....gives me chills.

Wouldn’t be shocked if Tuesday got the red sharpie for S OH / N KY / SE IN for the risk of strong, long-tracked tornadoes. Favorable shear vectors off of a diffuse cold front should favor semi-discrete supercells until the overnight hours as the trough advances east

This is probably one of the most insane observed soundings I’ve ever seen. Folks in the OKC metro need to watch these isolated cells coming in

Really worried for the populated areas that will be under the gun on Sunday. While dealing with the bigger cities/suburbs, you also have a lot of towns in between the regions. Feel excited to get a chance to get a tornado in my region but also worried for people. Please stay

Dynamics for the 28th look extremely concerning across the OH Valley / MS River Valley on Wednesday. 15% contour was just added by the SPC but could definitely see this getting upgraded pending how models keep resolving this solution of the trough

That was seriously the most random tornado I’ve ever seen in my 3 years of storm chasing. Somehow this small supercell managed to produce a cone - bowl multi-vort for 3-4 minutes near Castine, Ohio. Wanted to get a closer vantage & when I got passed a tree line it had a huge

Heres my thoughts....any semi discrete supercell that we can get will have the chance to produce strong-violent tornadoes & likely be long track.....15# looking more likely with the recent trends on RAP/HRRR

NEW Outlook/Target map for Friday! Best severe weather chance is further north along the WF/TP across KY/OH River Valley...VERY strong shear with ample low-level thermodynamics could result in a STRONG tornado threat. More conditional severe weather threat could materialize

Looking at this morning it is tough to ignore the dryline in N IL….probably imo one of the best environments overall so far this year. Very good instability profiles mixed with more backed southerly surface winds. Don’t typically throw this word around a lot but I’m highly
