Virtual Storm Chase 4

[Nick F]

Is a beast that storm area north of Abilene on the radar, would be very concerned if I were living in its path - such as the towns of Lueders and Albany. Its a monster with a big meso circulation by the looks of it, and continual TVSs being flagged up on it.

[Paul Sherman]

Certainly would not want to be just East of that thing Nick, HP Bomb with rain wrapped Tornadoes in its FFD, Where they usually are in a Monster like that!

Looking at SVR returns, the meso appears to be almost 10 miles across! What a monster :blink:

[Paul Sherman]

This is one cranking up following the same path - This area has been obliterated in the last 6 weeks

[Gorky]

Looks like the HP beast might be making an attempt to bow out. There is a huge area showing returns over 71kts towards the radar site. Still strong rotational so a good chance of a significant embedded tornado in it. To be honest it looks more tropical cylone than supercellular right now :blink:

Ive got it on but my pc dosent seem to like it and its very slow loading :blink:

[Nick F]

Yes, awesome footage from David Drummond's live stream, with clear rotation and inflow surging into the base of the storm he's nearby to.

Can see the soil getting picked-up off the fields too!

Yup, you can see the inflow on the radar streaming into the storm. This one should be on the upturn again.
