Severe 2025 Severe Thread

Any thoughts why the dew points stayed so low for the most point in S Al / central Al , during the last outbreak? I know it seemed that saved many .

It has been a long time since I have posted. I am in Hazlehurst.

Two things:

1. SE surface wind tends to pull dry air from the Atlantic. Most large tornado outbreaks in the south have a due south surface wind.

2. Mixing. The winds aloft mixed down drier air from above.

That said, SW flow aloft did much more to help than dew points.

THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN JACKSON HAS ISSUED A

* TORNADO WARNING FOR...
EAST CENTRAL SCOTT COUNTY IN CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI...

* AT 153 AM CDT, A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM CAPABLE OF PRODUCING A TORNADO

Only Wednesday has a risk area right now, but there does look to be a chance that some parts of the western SE could be looking at repeated rounds of severe storms through Friday or Saturday of next week. Also, there could be some significant rainfall totals for those areas as well.

Beyond that, it looks like the pattern calms down somewhat heading into the second week of April.

Lots of heavy rain totals on the EURO out through 4/12.
