A Tiny Warning for a Tiny Storm

TINY SPS3_UEX_3

Issued a tiny 15 minute warning for a storm in the northern portion of our CWA. ENI data showed a lightning “jump” from nothing to about 10-12 quickly. This coincided with a jump to 60 dbz to 25kft and 55 dbz to 35kft. SevereProb also jumped quickly up to 90% right on our CWA border.

SPS 3 for UEX Charley

Seeing this cell perk up again in Dawson county.  Had a brief overshooting top signal there as well as higher DVILs.  Decided to go with an SPS there, given what should be a fairly stable low level airmass given earlier cells.

Another Severe for Dawson and Gosper Counties Charley

SVR3_UEX_OTContinue to have an overshooting top.  Also heard a report from a neighboring CWA of 57 mph winds in Custer county, a little out ahead of my previous warning box.  Decided to go ahead and issue a downstream warning to cover that area as well.

SVR3_UEX_AllTiltsStill have tall cells in the middle, matching up with that good OT.

SVR3_UEX_5MinFlashPlenty of cloud to cloud lightning, but notice on the upper right the time series following the storm.  The storm tracking “blobs” merged and broke up several times.
