@WeatherMonitors @igolask

Today, destructive flash flooding hit Darg Village, Ayni District, Sughd Region, Tajikistan.

@ATWChasing no way those are 'subvortices' lol, one is >1000 yds away from the main circulation. i wonder if theres any videos of the tornado at this stage

UPDATE: I sent a quick email to the NWS in Lincoln, IL and they stated, "they could be subvorticies." and also called them, "very interesting".

4 months after the tornado near kankakee, IL

just found this video of the akçamezra tornado, still trying to geolocate it but it might either be near the very beginning of the tornado's life or around the failed occlusion stage !

Violent wedge tornado tonight in Huanggang, Hubei Procince, China. Two major city took a direct hit, already hearing 2 fatalities and hundreds injuries, more info coming

@Skye22276029298 @LoafL92750 @HurricaneIsaac *4 locations of IF3 damage - regarding IF4 damage there is (imo) likely IF4 damage in çaybeyi and possible IF4 damage in akçamezra, i just updated the eswd report which has some more info

@LoafL92750 @HurricaneIsaac the IF3 is likely gonna get upgraded, the surveyor found 4 instances of IF4 damage

@Skye22276029298 yeahh ive been meaning to update it, im approved for vop permissions there theres just been delays :/ im also gonna be away for like 2 weeks so might have to wait til july

@ynkyos OHH yeah i saw that i just forgot the if3 entry was QC0😭

they got rid of the IF3👀 Potential upgrade soon? @ynkyos

@Skye22276029298 i do wish the IF scale guidelines were more specific with the differences between DI subclasses like WTA/WTS, PTW/PTS, OFL/OFH etc, it feels subjective imo

The wind turbine damage from the Greenfield, Iowa EF4 tornado would likely be rated >IF3 with >180 mph windspeeds assuming they were strong with DoD 3, damage class S. (I'm trying to get better at rating with the IF scale :])

very large hail in N algeria yesterday, largest hailstones since april at around 6cm! (auto) sig hail risk verified nicely! estofex outlined another hail risk for the region tomorrow, we'll see how that turns out (photo: منبر أخبار تيزي نبشار)

@Skye22276029298 GISPSU apparently found another from the same day that was 41km long, 1.5km wide!

The largest European tornado of this year has been confirmed!

@2_wycked @MatthewCappucci @brianemfinger the photos are more extreme than the baseline for the DoD (for example the first image is from the south moravia IF4 tornado) - they would probably fall under "≥IF2" while the video would be at the lower end of the DoD so just IF2 imo

@ynkyos @MatthewCappucci @brianemfinger It doesn't quite look THIS bad on the videos - should detachment really be the same kmh as structural failure?

Anyone have any guesses on max wind speed here? Some of the things in here make me think this is stronger than at least I had been thinking (I had been thinking low end ef-0). Maybe some small scale moments of 100-120mph? I don’t think those solar panel farms are gonna be messed up by 60mph but maybe individual panels can? #wxtwitter #tornado

@MatthewCappucci @brianemfinger the IF scale uses instantaneous wind speed, this damage would probably be rated IF2 (corresponds roughly to low-end EF2) with instantaneous wind speeds of 220 km/h or ~36.7 mph

Fully agree. I think we have a long way to go in understanding these tiny tornadoes… especially since EF scale is for a 3 second gust. Something so narrow of course doesn’t act over an object for 3 seconds. I bet some have instantaneous violent wind speeds during vortex breakdown

@Skye22276029298 unfortunately the area is right in the middle of a radar hole too.. the lack of adequate radar coverage in so many areas that are very prone to severe weather really needs to be addressed

INTENSE-VIOLENT TORNADO ABOUT TO HIT UNIONVILLE, MISSOURI RIGHT NOW. TAKE SHELTER, THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION

@Djpuco @UsagiTor i wonder if having QC0 reports not show up publicly until theyre verified could help dissuade people from doing this kind of thing

@ynkyos @UsagiTor Because of this, public can't make reports anymore and we are looking for some solution.

The fuck (ik this shit Is fake asf)

@PlaysSaheb wondering if this could have a tornado/waterspout risk as well - several tornadoes in central america have been associated w/ tropical storms/hurricanes

Extremely rare TS landfall in El Salvador. Only one of 3ish. It may be so long that preparedness is in question.

@Skye22276029298 feel free to send them to me, i can try geolocating them! theres also a few more videos i can send you if you dont have them already :)

@ynkyos thanks for this!! I now have 10 videos of the tornado, matching it up to locations though is VERY VERY hard 😭

Absolutely historical and definitely violent tornado.

@Skye22276029298 @Xavi8906 first video is from çaybeyi i believe, heres a full view:

@Xavi8906 @ynkyos wait thanks sm for the first video!! I haven't found that one yet
