Here we go! First Hurricane Hunters plane on its way into Hurricane #Lee.
The data we get back from these missions go into the advisories and also go into the models to create more accurate forecasts.
Power flashes in North Raleigh as a line of storms rolled through earlier this evening. Over 70,000 customers are without power in Wake County. #ncwx#Raleigh
TWO TORNADOES on the ground at the SAME TIME. 2 different perspectives, left tornado was rain wrapped at the time of the right one was occuring. Both at the same time #txwx
@HenryMargusity Your frustration is misdirected. This wasn't a warning problem, it was a lack of sustainable shelter. SPC warned of strong nocturnal tornadoes >36 hours in advance. Tornado Watches were in place 6+ hrs before. Tornado warnings had >30min lead time for imminent danger.
@TsarWX @wx_garcia There have been Confirmed Tornado Warnings out in Benton 10+ minutes before it made it into town. There's not a lack of warning here
