Thanks for the comment; it is definitely a bummer that we did not bag last week, but hopefully I will get another chance at it again soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31751116.post-46379321641694791792009-02-18T10:35:00.000-05:002009-02-18T10:35:00.000-05:00The latest parameters for Central Bama.* Here are ...The latest parameters for Central Bama.<BR/><BR/>* Here are the latest severe weather parameters from the 6z (midnight) run of the NAM (North American Mesoscale) computer model, valid at Noon Today:<BR/>SBCAPE: 950 J/Kg<BR/>0-3KM SRH: 381<BR/>LI: -5.3<BR/>The CAPE approaches 1000, that means there should be plenty of instability to fuel storms. The SRH is a measure of how much the wind turns, values above 300 support tornadoes. And, the LI, Lifted Index, is an indicator of how prone the air is to rising - negative numbers mean rising air, which supports storms. Anything below -2 is supportive of severe storms.Storm Chasing Mikeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423054435529044197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31751116.post-66834883723783472622009-02-18T10:24:00.000-05:002009-02-18T10:24:00.000-05:00Looks like an action packed day for Mike.
