Chasing in northern Alabama sucks, too many trees and hills.
the echo on this er is serious
the one reed is chasing has a massive one too, down in SE MS

lol, Reed turns his GPS off when he's on a promising storm. There's another group on it now though. It's the storm in SE MS.
wow, the chasers on that N AL storm just had to stop because of a tree completely across the road... Not good

Don't know if there are any chasers on that storm but if so you should check out their live feeds because that hook is ing MASSIVE.
Looking at the Columbus radar in Mississippi with the crappy resolution Wunderground provides there are at least 7 cells with very apparent circulations. Thats just ing nuts.
nope, nobody on that one. Only a few teams out, which sucks
Hackleburg, AL looks about to take a big ass direct hit.
It's insane...
Mississippi and Alabama are not good chasing grounds. Trees galore. Thats why its all about TX, OK, KA, NE, WY, and MT.
For sure. Probably why Reed is staying on those storms in southern MS/AL. Better for getting some good film. Wooded, but at least it's flat
looks like another on the ground, just over the border into central alabama.
injuries/damage in Cullman, the one I was watching earlier...
Jesus, that storm east of Brooksville Ms, over the border into alabama looks nasty. The chasers can't get a good view, but it looks like a large tornado
it's either really ing wide or partially rain wrapped. stream is a bit grainy
I was wondering why he was down there. He usually just goes where the action is and since they're moving to the NE so fast I think he should have been farther north. I don't know though.
That being said there are storms near him that should produce tornadoes. Its just the ones to the north have some disgustingly huge circulations.
Manny, that one Reed was on an hour and a half or so ago looked almost like a doughnut on radar. Doesn't that usually indicate debris inside a large tornado?
showing some of the shots from the cullman tornado, amazing (on TWC)
Reed said on FB that he's NEVER seen anything like this... serious words from that dude...I have a lot of family in Central Ala...They know the drill though.
On higher resolution images than you'll see on the web you get a debris affect in large tornadoes. All that stuff that is lifted within the vortex adds to the reflectivity but you probably won't see it on the wunderground or NWS images on the web because the resolution isn't good.
GR Level 3 might show it. Thats a cool program to download if you don't have it.
To be honest no one exaggerates more than Reed Timmer. Great storm chaser but dude piratically exhales hyperbole. He'll probably post the video tonight though. Their video from a couple of weeks ago was pretty damn amazing.
reed's GPS has him inside of a warned supercell, with another warned supercell lined up directly behind
while true that he exaggerates, the radar doesn't lie. That dude has been camped in warned supercells for two hours straight, if not longer.
hmmmmm, I just realized a few of these are headed toward Tuscaloosa.....
just kidding...mostly
Just looked at his location. He's in great position on two monster cells. Dude is good.
27 warnings out right now. I counted by county, so there aren't that many storms, but still.
Early too.
