Storm of the Month
|
The FEBRUARY WINNER chosen for this month's honor developed on
the 21st at 410am near Walnut Grove in southeastern Leake County
about 25 miles northeast of the radar. Another low instability
and high shear environment created this storm with VILs peaking
only in the low 30s kg/m*m while a moderate Mesocyclone with a
depth of at least 7,000 feet and a Shear of 28(e-3/s) over a 0.8nm
diameter at the lowest altitude. The 4-Panel Cell Trend image below
also shows that Hail and VIL Algorithms once again peaked before
rotation increased(an appearance of weakening when velocities
were increasing-beware).
