Lawrence and Morgan Counties: Radar loop

Early Morning February 06, 2008 Radar Loop
...Back to Home Page

The radar images below are storm relative velocities taken from the early morning hours of Wednesday, February 6th...as a supercell thunderstorm tracked through Lawrence and Morgan Counties in north central Alabama. The strong rotational couplet is represented by the bright green/red colors in close proximity to each other...which are located just east of Haleyville, Alabama at the start of the loop sequence. Notice a small black bar with text that appears in each window. Within this bar are velocity data (in knots) and elevation data (both in feet above MSL and AGL). You can follow the supercell as it tracked through north central Alabama. The images begin at 241 AM CST and end at about 331 AM CST as the feature weakened and moved into Limestone County. This supercell produced a destructive tornado along much of its path. For more information on the storm survey please follow this link to the summary page for the event. This page will be updated as new information is obtained.
