OUN: GOES-R Proxy Miss!

Posted in Live Blogs on by Greg Stumpf.
UAH Convective Initiation images showed a brief value of 65 in northeast Comanche County but the UW_CTC product never showed a cloud top cooling value.  This seems to be due to the proximity of the cluster of cells to the west. The cell in northeast Comanche County was very slow to develop, but did become very strong and actually produced a 62 mph wind gust.  Additionally, the MESH showed hail sizes of over one inch.
UAH signal at 1915z in NE Comanche Co.
Cell first noted at 1925z

One inch hail detected 45 minutes after initial reflectivity blob on radar, and 55 minutes after UAH signal.
