Dang it, I was hopeful there for a minute. WSB showing a line of super cells on the front hitting Atlanta around 9-10ish.

... again
HRRR has a few storms bubbling in the next 1-2 hours but the main development not really going for about 2 hours

West Alabama was never really expected to get anything catastrophic. I am seeing some firing to the right of Carollton. Is this stuff reaching the ground? Its on radar over my house in Hoover but nothings falling from the sky...suns shinning brightly with blue skies. It has actually turned out to be a pretty beautiful day.

Yeah latest HRRR fires almost nothing till east of Huntsville and Birmingham . Hopefully that's correct

Yea....Im not sure they will sustain themselves. I bet SPC is on pins and needles. Local Mets already backing off considerably.

No, but people did expect more development than we have seen, given the setup. That, and the dry air is right on the tail of the showers trying to develop. A few tried in Tuscaloosa county, and they got eaten up fast.

I'm not liking the look of the HRRR down this way over the next few hours.

I for one hope that dry air makes wave 3 a total bust. I've had enough fun for today.

Having a nice heavy rain shower now. Despite not really even having moderate thunderstorms, not too long ago it was so dark it was almost spooky for midday.

Not liking the backwash here either (though thank God it's all we have to deal with on this end of the SE)
Sun's out here in Lawrenceville, GA. Clouds are are just flying by....and its gotten warmer since the rain ended. Will have to wait and see what happens!

Fortunately we've been under almost constant cloud cover here in morrow after getting a metric ton of rain. It's warming outside but very slightly.

No real major thunderstorm but my gosh is it absolutely pouring now. Hardest yet in these moments.

Lol wishcasting ? We had multiple models showing development closer to the miss ala line

Have you seen that Lillie Mae woman that has cussed him out on FB, and now Spann supporters are going after her.
I expected to see something popping up in east MS/west Al not a completely blank radar, there certainly was enough instability there and PWats have increased. Will be interesting to really find out whats lacking, if its subsidence in wake of the developing MCS to the east or a lack of good forcing or dry air aloft

People who enjoy seeing nature's power and fury, not to be confused with the tragedy that accompanies it.

really would prefer talking about possible early April snow in WNC (as opposed to these dadgum destructive storms) ...

Lots of flooding here in west Columbia sc.

to each their own....I've seen nature's power and fury....didn't really enjoy it that much.........................

If you ask me there is really no excuse for that. They give us the best info they can with the info they have. They're performing a service for us and it is far better to be prepared for an outbreak and get a bust than the reverse.

Sun starting to try and break through the clouds here, as it got much brighter. Won't be long before we see patches of blue I feel.
I have too. Lost my family's farm in 2011 to the TCL/BHM EF-4.
I still like seeing the power of nature. Again, not to be confused with the tragic nature that unfortunately accompanies it.
