Tornado Safety and more watch detail from NWS and SPC
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
Tornado Watch for portions of
parts of southern Illinois
much of southern Indiana
much of western and central Kentucky
small part of southeast Missouri
parts of northwest Tennessee
Effective this Sunday morning and evening from 1145 am until 600
PM CDT.
Tornadoes... hail to 2 inches in diameter... thunderstorm wind
gusts to 80 mph... and dangerous lightning are possible in these
areas.
The Tornado Watch area is approximately along and 85 statute
miles east and west of a line from 20 miles north northeast of
Bloomington Indiana to 60 miles southwest of Clarksville
Tennessee. For a complete depiction of the watch see the
associated watch outline update (wous64 kwns wou7).
Remember... a Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for
tornadoes and severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch
area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for
threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements
and possible warnings.
Discussion... strong S/WV trough and associated 100kt mid level jet
Max will be tracking into lower OH valley this afternoon. Deepening
surface low moves across central IL into ind with cold front
extending sswwd into central AR attm. Low level moisture increasing
in warm sector along with surface heating will raise MLCAPES to near
1000 j/kg. Severe thunderstorms including supercells will develop
ahead of surface low and cold front and track rapidly enewd across
the watch. In addition to damaging winds/hail... tornadoes will be
possible... particularly with any supercell that is able to develop
in warm sector.
Aviation... tornadoes and a few severe thunderstorms with hail
surface and aloft to 2 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface
wind gusts to 70 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to
500. Mean storm motion vector 24050.

... Safety rules for tornadoes...
Tornado Watch number 117 has been issued by the National Weather
Service... .effective until 6 PM CDT... for southwest Indiana... west
Kentucky and most of southern Illinois. The following safety tips
are being provided in hope that the broadcast media will frequently
broadcast these messages while the watch affects their area.
A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable for the development
of severe thunderstorms which can produce tornadoes in and close
to the watch area. If you are in the watch area... keep informed
of the latest weather information. These storms can develop
rapidly so there may be occasions when advance warning is not
possible.
A Tornado Warning means a tornado has been spotted or indicated by
radar. If you are in the path or near the tornado... take
immediate action to protect life and property. Follow these
safety rules.
In open country... find a ditch... culvert or other low area and
lay down flat. Cover your head with your hands for protection.
In homes or small buildings... go to the basement or a small
interior room on the lowest floor like a Hall or bathroom closet.
Use heavy furniture for shelter or cover yourself with a mattress
or blanket.
In Mobile homes or vehicles... abandon it and go to a substantial
structure or place of safety. Never try to outrun a tornado in a
vehicle.
In schools... hospitals... factories or shopping centers... go to
designated shelter areas. Interior Halls on the lowest levels are
usually the best. Stay away from gymnasiums or auditoriums. Avoid
all outside walls and windows.
The key to tornado survival is to be prepared and take immediate
action when a warning is issued or when you feel threatened.
Remember... the actions you take during a tornado event may save
your life and the lives of those you are responsible for.

Storms in the MS river area
Strong storms are forming along Far NE Ark and MO boothill. These storms may become severe as they move into the Jackson Purchase area of West KY with large hail and damaging winds the main threat.
Severe,Snow,Hard Freeze all in the next 96 hours.
First of all is today's severe weather threat. A warm front is moving ahead of a powerful system. Along with this is a very strong low pressure system moving into the area with a cold front to provide lift. Steep lapse rates and dewpoints in 55 to 60 range is enough for a slight risk of severe weather. Low topped storms moving 50 to 60MPH will possible in West KY and Mid TN this from Midday to Nightfall.
Than the upper levels may be supportive enough to allow for snow to form. Late tonight and tomorrow morning. Since temps will above freezing the snow accumulation seems unlikely but if heavier bands form cannot be ruled out.
Then we will watch the potential for a hard freeze coming on Tuesday and Wednesday.

This tornado went through Northern Trigg and part of Caldwell before going into Christian County and causing good damaging to the pennyryle Forest Lodge this amazing tornado went 51 miles and 5 counties and caused 2 deaths and 30 injuries it occurred at 11:55pm April 3rd is the start and ending in the pennryle Forest around 1:30am
It went from N Side of Murray and Aurora were the hardest hit communites.
It went from N Side of Murray and Aurora were the hardest hit communites.
April 2nd 2006 3 years ago from yesterday.
Monday April 2nd is the first anniversary of the Christian County Tornado Outbreak. This an outbreak of severe thunderstorms, supercells, and a serieal Derecho.
1) The atmosphere on April 2nd 2006 was favorable for tornado and severe thunderstorm development. There was amazing wind shear from a intense low. Near 80 degree air was in the area and a powerful cold front was behind the low. With wind shear and instability pretty good the Storm Prediction Center issued a Moderate Risk for western Kentucky surrounded by a slight risk for the rest of middle Tennessee. Look at the link for the for the first day 1 outlook issued http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/archive/2006/day1otlk_20060402_1200.html
Sunlight and heating occurred during the afternoon allowed for the first sotmrs to form 3 and 4pm around middle Tennessee where wind reports were rrecieved. Later that afternoon around 5 supercells exploded in Missouri and to the north of the supercells a huge line decorated with supercells and bow echos. This line will produce wind damage in St Louis, All of Southern and Central Indiana, Owensboro and Henderson kentucky through the bluegrass a bunch of tornadoes were reported in the derecho too.
The Christian County tornado was spawned by long supercells that didn't believe in dying over till they caused grief and damage. One supercell was the tri-state one it went through Arkansas the Missouri boothill striking Carthursville with a devastating hit and went through Bradford Tennessee inculding Dyer and Gibson counties this one had a high death toll and miles of destruction. Carthursville and Bradford look like world war two battlesites after this and it moved to Camden to produce a f-1 tornado Camden Tennessee had tornadoes near by on Nov.15th 2005 and will see more 5 days later. Another supercell formed in Sikeston Missouri this storm developed rotation and went form Sikeston Missouri through Paduach produced a F-0 tornado on the Ballard/Mccracken county line moved through Calvert City with hail, wind, and a funnel cloud. Passed 4 miles north of Hopkinsville produced two F-3 tornadoes continued into Todd County which Allegrie area was damging pretty good and the Clifty. Ended in Northern logan County when it produced a quick F-1 in the rural Logan county than died off. In Christian County 28 injuries were reported. 35 million dollars of damage done a popular Christian county symbol sinking fort church was destroyed, many homes were heavily damaging, many people had to stay in hotels because of the insurance. Todd County get some good damage in rural areas but not near as great as it was in Christian County. Neither county was declared a federal disaster area so individual loans had to be taken out this caused grief and caused people to live cheaply in hotels. When Tennessee got hit hard with tornadoes hope for Federal assistance decreased. The tornado started 3 miles NNE of Gracey in Sinking Fort heavily damaging the community than went through busy country neighborhood on the northern outskirts of Hopkinsville and cut power to the whole city. Homes were destroyed or heavily damaged if in the path of the 185mph wind gust tornado. The first one lifted 6 miles NNE of Hopkinsville than the 2nd one appered and continued ot cause damage form Greenville Road and into Todd Country will the tornado struck rural land just a mile or two to the north of communities like Clifty, Sharon Grove, and Allegrie. Thanks to the NWS PADUCAH FOR A 20 minute lead time from when the tornado hit the Sinking Fort church and a longer lead time for Todd County. No deaths were caused in this tornado although several injuries and a lot of property loss occurred. Thanks to all volunteers and meteorologists and everyone who helped out during the April 2nd Tornado outbreak and praise god that no one in Christian or Todd County died and thanks for everyone helping the unlucky across the country on this day and during the Spring Break 2006 Tornado Episodes of the 2nd and the 7th.
