@CameronJNixon@Healey_Photo@theScantman Like Cameron said, the northwest one is occluded and is a separate updraft in the low-levels, but still feeding the primary updraft in the mid-levels
@CameronJNixon@Healey_Photo@theScantman Just seeing this now since I've entirely moved to bluesky (and y'all should too). A couple of my simulations around tornadogenesis time definitely have that double low-level updraft look.
I will be defending my dissertation this Friday, November 22 at 8 am CST over the environmental factors that can lead to and modulate the streamwise vorticity current (SVC) in a supercell, and how that may impact tornadogenesis. If interested in attending, DM me for a zoom link!
. @ASchueth Analyzing simulations of streamwise vorticity currents and found that SVCs favor but don't guarantee tornadogenesis and that lift beneath SVCs contribute to mesocyclone and updraft intensification. #31SLS
We deployed all of our surface in-situ platforms (StickNet) across the Florida Big Bend area and northward into southern Georgia. Praying for the locals that everyone stays safe. #Helene#flwx#gawx
