4/11/20 - 4/13/20 Severe Weather Outbreak

HRRR looked like it had a few initial discreet cells, then kinda looked as if it went linear mode for a stretch, but then broke down some and there's still quite a few UHI streaks...

And of course, west of Georgia, it's all quite bad. Been observing that as the run goes on. And it's not very long range HRRR like this stuff is.
 
Yeesh, I find those low topped supercells out ahead of the line interesting aswell, but that QLCS looks nasty on the hrrr E2F1A654-8A7A-4C52-80EF-94998842073A.pngCBA79E5A-1B5D-4A90-A018-A3D7A1312CA4.png0CDE0CBA-06EB-483E-9C7D-24E41E03D53A.png
 
March 2008 remains undefeated in my lifetime for ATL. Pretty sure it was a 2% marginal risk that night also LOL

It was and that one lone supercell covered a lot of ground. It dissipated well into SC. Irony that I was looking at this outbreaks and others earlier today for similarities in setups. I remember how that supercell also seemed to be a precursor for the next day.

Latest NAM sounding shows a PDS tornado sounding in ATL.
 
Even with cape backing off, those parameters are still scary , only thing getting my attention is that warm layer around 500mb, could that keep storms more low topped ?C7D767EB-A1F6-472C-B4CD-1CD48ED3A126.png0FEDE07C-A8A5-4FA2-A935-24CDB39CEB87.png
 
This may end up being a sunrise/early afternoon event for N.C.

That's what WRAL was alluding to for the Triangle. They said storms would come through Sunday night into the morning, but the stronger ones will be from the morning to midday.
 
Reminder, no bashing the SPC/NWS for not issuing over-the-top risk boxes for your back yards. They'll likely come if they're warranted.

The 3KM backing off tonight well to the East from GA-Carolinas wasn't too unexpected, in my book. Yes, I know it's still a potentially significant event, but it will not matter if you're under a enhanced, moderate, or high risk (or not). The weather will do what it will do, regardless of certain forecast advisories/terminology.
