Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Jamos on March 26, 2011, 08:50:05 PM Is Tuscaloosa finally loosing it's claim on being the tornado alley in Alabama? I can remember the days when Meridian, Ms would send us all of those storms up I59/20 and Birmingham would start ducking.
The last year or so, I think the area up around Guin and Hamilton eastward toward Cullman has taken over as the new tornado alley. They have really seen some bad weather lately.

The last year or so, I think the area up around Guin and Hamilton eastward toward Cullman has taken over as the new tornado alley. They have really seen some bad weather lately. Carbon Hill and walker county get leveled every 2 or 3 years. Been that way for a while, but you're right, Tuscaloosa gets plenty too. I used to do a lecture on topography and storm patterns...

Dont look now, but storms are building north of meridian and heading towards t-town. No warnings. You jinxed yourself. :P Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on March 27, 2011, 07:19:20 AM A pretty good round of storms rolling in from MS running just south of T-Town. Thunderstorm warnings.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on March 27, 2011, 07:27:43 AM HArd to tell, but the line appears to be heading predominantly east, maybe a slight north component. Looks like it will pass south of birmingham near clanton maybe.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ricky023 on March 27, 2011, 08:45:07 AM Man general it was still lightning here at 4:30 AM. We got a lot of water last evening. RTR!

Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on April 04, 2011, 04:23:38 AM Going to be an active day/evening. Stay safe everyone.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Jamos on April 04, 2011, 05:59:48 AM Yes it is, I was hoping all of this would be during the daylight hours.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on April 04, 2011, 06:01:47 AM Yes it is, I was hoping all of this would be during the daylight hours. If history holds true, we will have scattered warnings this afternoon and then a breakout as soon as the sun sets. Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Jamos on April 04, 2011, 06:06:49 AM I don't worry as bad when I can see what is going on. Per Fox News, there are some storms already firing up in Eastern Arkansas and he said that isn't a good sign for what is coming our way.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on April 04, 2011, 12:17:27 PM If you havent looked lately, the line is huge and is in Memphis right now. Yall up there in the shoals get ready to duck.

Yikes. It's at my window. Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: MDB Tide Roll on April 04, 2011, 12:46:06 PM Guess I'll be up late tonight, early tomorrow morning dealing with it. Supposed to get here around 11 tonight.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Chechem on April 04, 2011, 01:29:21 PM Okay, it's gone from here now (and much cooler). It's just entering Alabama.
Observations: 1. Not as much cloud-to-ground lightning as storms of last week. 2. High winds and heavy rain. 3. We've had an inch of rain so far, and moderate rain still coming down. 4. Distant rumblings to the west, but the radar shows it's mostly a forward-wall punch to this one. Good luck to those of you in Alabama. Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: pmull on April 04, 2011, 02:08:17 PM I live in Decatur. They annouced just before lunch that schools would be let out at 1:45. They are predicting heavy rain, hail and high wiinds. Later tonight a good chance of tornados.

Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Chechem on April 04, 2011, 03:49:44 PM Keep your heads down.
Here in Miss. we now have 20k winds from the north and cooling temps. Looks like the storms are over. Still raining. Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: #1Tidefan on April 04, 2011, 03:53:51 PM Just a follow up with>>> http://www.srh.noaa.gov/bmx/

For some reason, my power was out from 5:30 - 7:00 this evening. Not a cloud in the sky.

Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: MDB Tide Roll on April 04, 2011, 09:16:42 PM I hope that's what we have here.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: MDB Tide Roll on April 04, 2011, 10:55:23 PM The storm has started here. The power came back ON just as the rain started.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: MDB Tide Roll on April 05, 2011, 12:22:08 AM Still raining, but the storms have passed. Seems like the worst of it was just north of here.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: BAMAWV on April 05, 2011, 05:02:56 AM Supposedly, Miss St. and Starkville hammered last night.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Jamos on April 05, 2011, 06:42:00 AM I think State was able to dodge the bad cloud that came through that area. The National Weather had a camera on campus and you could see the storm go by and it was an ugly one.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Leewillie on April 05, 2011, 07:51:46 AM Srtrong wind and heavy rain hit about 3:00 pm yesterday. We lost power until 1:00 AM today. Only access to outside world was our cell phones. Lots of trees down and several store fronts damaged. With cable still out I'm not sure of the other area damage. Lightning struck a large maple tree in my daughters front yard, it fell into the power lines but did not damage the house.
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: N.AL-Tider on April 05, 2011, 08:02:47 AM We just got a tremendous amount of rain in a very short time. Didn't see any tree or structural damage this morning when I left for work. Course, it was dark at that time too... :-[
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ricky023 on April 05, 2011, 08:57:18 AM We had dust off our ceiling on the furniture where the house shook. It was wild here. RTR!
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: MDB Tide Roll on April 05, 2011, 10:14:55 PM There were many people who weren't as lucky
Six people were killed in Georgia, three from trees falling and three in a mobile home struck by an apparent tornado. :pray: Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: #1Tidefan on April 06, 2011, 12:23:22 PM Just finished rakin up Dads yard. Leaves/Pine needles/limbs...sheesh.
Got a lotta wind/rain down here. Luckily, no structural damages. Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on April 11, 2011, 04:17:29 AM Here we go again. Big line coming through. Supposed to be in Birmingham around 6 this evening, I think.

Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ricky023 on April 12, 2011, 06:55:36 AM We got through it ok. It blew down our stove pipe we had up for a woodheater. Shoot that is a blessing it blew that down only. We are just thrilled everybody is ok today. RTR!
Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on April 15, 2011, 03:54:03 AM Quote DANGEROUS WEATHER POSSIBLE TODAY/TONIGHT: A number of weather parameters are coming together for the potential for a major outbreak of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes across Alabama and the Deep South during the next 18 hours. A deep, vertically stacked low from the surface to 20,000 feet is south of Kansas City this morning, with a trailing dry line down into the Ark-La-Tex region. The dynamic forcing associated with this system, along with very strong wind fields at the surface and aloft and veering of the wind with altitude will bring severe storms to Alabama later today and tonight. http://www.abc3340.com/weather (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/Badfish1060/wx4.jpg) Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: Jamos on April 15, 2011, 06:43:32 AM Yep, here we go with our weekly trend of bad weather. My wife and I spent some time in the basement during the storm last week.
Hopefully all of this will move on through Tuscaloosa in time to get the baseball and softball games in tonight. The fireworks show that was scheduled for the softball game has been canceled. Everybody please be alert and safe today! :pray: Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: ssmith general on April 15, 2011, 01:35:55 PM James Spann just said he'd be on all night.

My sister just spoke to him and all is well physically. Just property damage that can be fixed. Sounds like he couldn't get out of his neighborhood, the power was out, and a cell tower was demolished. Brosky, That is great news. Listen, grounding him for not calling will probably not be effective punishment, since he is already home. Hope this helps.Title: Re: *** Tornado warnings in-game thread *** Post by: XBAMA on April 29, 2011, 01:08:55 PM not sure if it's been posted if so sorry ...
