It looks like West Tennessee's bad storms will roll through around 7-8pm this evening.

I plan to be home long before that, well an hour or two (hopefully).

Me neither. Dr. Forbes has West TN's TorCon at 8/10 for tomorrow and usually Dr. Forbes is spot on. He had Tuscaloosa, Al and Yazoo City, MS both at 9/10 on the days of those two outbreaks.

My mom sent me an email saying the TorCon was now 9 for West TN.

I wish they would separate that into counties. It seems most of the bad stuff always flies north of Covington and into Dyerburg and above.

That's not looking good us guys in west Tn.

Its brewing up t be a bad one

74 degrees this morning with dew points in the mid 60's. As that low approaches, its going to pull th moist, unstable air over West Tn., North Miss. and W. Kentucky. Couple that with upper level wind sheer and you got all the mixings for a bad event.

Hopefully, we can get some cloud cover that will slow down the heating of the atmosphere, but its looking like we wont be that lucky. That is what saved us back on April 26th.

Stay safe and please keep an eye to the weather.

Count from the looks of the cop thread you should just become a weather man.

Middle TN and parts east may be be ok. Conditions are not as favorable

They dont bother me. I dont expect someone to like it when I have to give them a ticket. The key is to not take things personal.

True, How is it looking for East Tennessee today? We got hit pretty hard yesterday with a cloud buster in my area.

A tornado that went over my brothers place in Ft. Worth, TX

Same tornado after it past his house. As you can see it grew bigger.

This happened yesterday afternoon.

Do you expect this to be the worst one of the year, so far?

Its hard to tell.

Lets say it has all the makings to be the worst we have seen

This may be an event West Tenn has never seen as far as wide, long track tornadoes

Not trying to scare anyone, but even in 1999, 2003 and 2008, the tornadoes were confined to a general area and were not truly long track tornadoes

Then, only a few supercells formed ahead of the cold front and drop tornadoes out of those particular storms.

However, if the conditions today are any indication, we could see the potential for multiple super cell development, each being favorable for development of wide, long track tornadoes.

It bares watching very closely.

Brett Adair(stormchaser from Alabama) is in West Tennessee right now. He's just outside Memphis. When you see those guys in an area, something is going to happen


Here is his website that he streams live on. He was on the tornado that hit Tuscaloosa back in April
