@OHWXisweird @CameronJNixon @ConvChronicles To me, it looks like the bulk of the shear was in the lowest 3km, and the mid levels were lacking. Certainly favored bowing segments.

@NWSCLE Around 855 looking north of Sparta, Ohio towards Chesterville and Fredericksburg. Also saw tree damage from a very strong RFD surge around 9pm.

@NWSILN @NWSCLE looking north of Sparta, OH around 853pm.

@Lincoln_Wx This but make it more overcast.

@bam_weather I'm starting to wonder if some of the higher totals will be contaminated with sleet. That 12z Euro run looked deeper off the get go and has me wondering exactly how far the low and warm tongue wiggle up the Appalachian ridge.

@Vincent_Ledvina Stunning out here in central Ohio

I'm not sure how @AndyTFE and @BrendanPorath missed this ND comp on the SGS pod. Talk about an all time "taking my ball and going home"... https://t.co/IR1a8rtbZs

@JAtanackov Central Ohio, briefly visible to the naked eye.

@TornadoWIS Alright time for the 500mb comparison now

@fried_egg_golf @AndyTFE Did anyone else catch Immelman with the "restoring order" call? 😂

[Dustin K Hardgrove @DustinHardgrove]

@ChasingOhio Those hodographs should yield some interesting looking storms in the least. Lots of streamwise vorticity in the lowest 2km, but the "v" veering shape above should reveal back sheared anvils. Figures, since I'm heading south in the morning for vacation 🙄

@LinksGems 4th at Wilmington Municipal is enhanced by the firm, sandy soil. Not much to stop the ball from careening down the volcano.

@KylePorterCBS A foursome walking is faster than a foursome riding.

@feedtheball Very reminiscent of the slope and runout Green installed at Scioto's 12th. The peninsula shape of the back tier at the latter can wreak havoc on finding a true back edge number (all depends on the angle of approach) and it causes so many misses long and difficult up and downs.

@ReedTimmerUSA Straight as a 2x4? With the quality of lumber at the box stores in my area, that would be a classic tornadic supercell hodograph...

[Dustin K Hardgrove @DustinHardgrove]

@AndyTFE Cool gesture for loopers, but in my experience I'd take maintenance day (Monday) play over after work play. At least in the Ohio humidity, I mostly pass on after loop play because I value the skin of my nether regions staying intact. Gold Bond has limits...

@GCIMagazineGuy You want to talk about priorities out of whack? I'm a middle school science in one of the better paying districts in Ohio. My hourly rate as a looper absolutely demolishes what I make educating children.

@celtlass395 @ReedTimmerUSA I was on it from Findlay to New Washington.

@225MPH_EF4 It means $22 per hour at the Walmart or Amazon distro center you show up at 5 days a week to finance your chasing habit.
