Kevin has taken over warning operations for team 2. They currently have 4 tornado, 1 wind, 5 hail threats they are monitoring… this may be a bit too much. Kevin has chosen to let far western hail threat expire to help with workload and the cell has moved out of the area. Again it is hard to maintain which threat area belongs with which storm, Kevin will be renaming the polygons as he updates them. Strong inflow continues for these storms and new cell development is beginning near the radar.

Eric is now in control of the threats for team 1. They are monitoring 3 storms with 3 threats (hail, wind and tornado) on each. Funnel clouds and nickel to golf ball size hail continue to be reported with a couple of their storms.
