Forecast Discussion - April 23, 2024 - Multi-Day, Significant Severe Weather Event on Tap This Week

Ғылым және технология

For educational purposes only. If you live in the affected areas, please stay tuned to your local National Weather Service office for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
A multi-day stretch of potentially significant severe weather is on tap for a broad swath of the central and southern US, beginning in earnest on Thursday, April 25. A series of potent troughs will be making their way into the region, interacting with rich moisture. This will set the stage for daily, robust severe weather chances through at least the weekend. The SPC has outlined Slight Risks (level 2/5) each day from Thursday through Sunday (April 28). In this video, we’ll compare and contrast model data to determine possible outcomes for the upcoming setups.

    2010 as an analog to this season (Strong El Nino -> La Nina) didn't get started until late April as well... like clockwork. Another thing I have noticed this season is models struggling quite a bit until about 24hrs until the event. Several folks have suggested the STJ being the culprit and I tend to agree, especially coming out of a strong El Nino.

    Makes sense. All the extra latent heat added upsteam on the equatorward side of the STJ and the resultant temp gradient doesn't get sampled by weather balloons until it's already over the U.S.

    Hehe Trey are we sure 50 minutes is enough to cover all this? ;) As one pointed out yesterday, I think this is the most insane severe stretch of all hazards coming up since 2019 as you said, then it was 2011 and 2013 before that. SPC just pushing out the 15% on the day 4-8s like candy now. Actually will not be surprised to see 15% things through the 30th. These are the most classic looking troughs I have seen coming back to back in the plains/Midwest but mostly plains since probably then and the fact all these have tornado with some definitely significant tornado potential with the insane hail and winds opportunities is something I think chasers that been out there since the early 2010s have been wondering and waiting if we'd see again in true consistent fashion. These last 5 years as a whole I think chasers are getting spoiled to hell with how we not really seen a down year in activity for the most part in a year-round time frame but again maybe with how climate stuff is going we may not ever see a down year or below average tornado season again. Basically, only downside is chasers having or wanting to be out there for near year-round chasing like this, at SOME POINT, the 18-28 years old crowd may not feel it now but THAT much driving and on the road, it will destroy their backs by the time they hit 30-35 and then what? The downside is that there's a huge trade off chasing this hard with THIS many set ups with barely a break but again there is some benefit to people like me that live in the Northeast who only go sparingly...the saving on the wear and tear of a yearly grind. ;) I still wonder how 99% of the chasers manage to get time off from jobs and stuff to chase this much....my job and most we usually only get 2-3 weeks off in a year. But as for this event I see the 27th and 28th to be the most prime and primed events of this. Actually I think one can say from the 25th-30th it's gonna be insane with the all hazards threat present. As pointed out the thing not lacking on these events is the DEEP moisture and that is already in place in TX and that will easily get into all the plains/Midwest sectors and linger even beyond into May so peak season is here to stay. Last events were dying on the moisture in the plains till you got to the Midwest but not this time and the shear in this case is gonna be incredible and the 850s are gonna set up for these insane hodographs I think we not seen since March 2023. That's how robust I think this pattern is shaping up to be in my opinion. Trey, your tour group is gonna have a field day with this and the significant tornado potential is absolutely on the cards for the stretch run. Definitely think this once again......actually scratch that, I was gonna say this has career week potential for chasers but to be honest, the last 5 years been career years for chasers. This omega block high in the East only builds and continues even long term even on new model runs and it's pretty consistent across the board. Just means more troughs to keep rolling into the plains week after week. Only downside is this is going to have a trade off here in the Northeast and Southeast with fire and red flag issues in the cards with how wet we been all Winter and how fast stuff is growing but this is starting to dry out a bit now. Also need to watch Canada too as this may be another extreme fire season in Western and Eastern Canada. Regardless, Everyone better strap in cause this has the chance to skyrocket the tornado numbers on the year to way above average.

    Good stuff here man, and really happy to see your subs climbing! Much deserved. Also, been a minute since you've uploaded event breakdowns, I know in the spring it's hard to do for obvious reasons, but do you still plan to do those as time allows? Would be great to see some, and MAYBE even a controversial one about the debatable EF scale itself? Again that one can be loaded, for or against in your commenrs section, but all of us know there can be improvements made to account for new and emerging technology in meteorology and atmospheric physics capabilities when it comes to both live tornadoes and also the damage left behind. If you have already covered this topic, then i totally wasted your time reading this comment 😂 If not, it'd be awesome to see one on that topic. Also, the Palm Sunday Outbreak (maybe working with limited forecasting intel there), individual tornadoes from the 2011 Super Outbreak such as Philadelphia, MS, Phil Campbell, Tuscaloosa, etc. Those would be fascinating case studies. Cheers man, awesome stuff as usual!

So through mid-June, the content will be primarily forecast discussion videos, and perhaps an event breakdown or two after a notable one happens. I’ll pick back up with the older case studies again once my tour season is over; Palm Sunday is high up on my list!

    Moisture is pretty deep right now in OKC, see tonights OUN sounding. I suspect that moisture is too shallow on the GFS thurs afternoon as you mentioned. Looks like good streamwise vorticity on some of those soundings as well. Low level cape wasn't great on some of those but everything else looks pretty solid.

    What are your thoughts on the ICON model solution for this event? To me it looks even more potent than the ECMWF and GFS solutions but I'm too much of a layman to analyse it correctly. You can find the ICON model solution on pivotal weather. Also, I'm wondering how exactly you conclude that the euro model seems to be off if you only compare it to the GFS? Do you look at other models as well that you don't show on video or is it personal judgement and/or experience?

  • @ConvectiveChronicles

    @ConvectiveChronicles

    Ай бұрын

    I don’t use the ICON model, mostly for simplicity’s sake, and the fact I don’t really know how it works or its biases. I did take a look at its solution, and it does look pretty potent. As far as the euro being a little off, I made that statement because of the typical model biases I see. The GFS is usually the least potent and most progressive of the bunch, while the euro tends to be on the more aggressive side. The fact that the GFS is siding with the NAM, which is also typically more aggressive, makes me think that solution is a bit more accurate.
