The Effingham, Illinois, EF3 tornado on June 17th, 2026.

@Blake_8_ @Andrew71750296 Another case, but instead, it is to make a TDS more obvious with the older radar data. Here is a TDS from the 1998 Birmingham F5 tornado. (Obviously, it isn't saying either of those tornadoes were secretly F5 tornadoes, it is just an example)

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@Blake_8_ @Andrew71750296 Here is a better example: this supercell produced an F0 near Warrenton, MO. There is a marker where I believe the TDS is. Of course, with how large the pixels are with older radar data, it is a bit harder to tell.

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@Igor__Roik Ah, I didn't notice the date in the actual image; I just read the "next day 11" translation provided. Sorry for the mistake.

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@MatthewCappucci Or I could be completely wrong

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@MatthewCappucci If there is one that will do it today, I bet it will be this one.

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@Andrew71750296 @NickKrasz_Wx You can have a TDS without using Correlation Coefficient. As an example, here is the Hackleburg-Phil Campbell EF5 as seen from ARMR, where you can see a clear TDS without needing to have CC.

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@MatthewCappucci Already seems relatively interesting

[Robbie @rfamwx]

Some pretty neat storm interactions that led to a brief tornado today in North Dakota, @CameronJNixon, you may find some interest in this

@godlightgrace https://t.co/ZJKeUGaEXG I thought they were a 22 year public school teacher

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@godlightgrace You're missing the F798 in the top right

Here is a video of the tornadic supercell seen from the @news4buffalo radar

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@NDGMETCHEF @AaronRigsbyOSC Those velocities are 2.5kft above the ground; if we were to translate them to the ground, it would be maybe 60mph at max.

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@DontTofu I’ve always said that the Dakotas always provide

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@DontTofu Oh it was totaled, but I’d almost say it was worth it with the Dakotas being the way they are (you can see my car in the last image)

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@scr0sX @aresel_ Hardly all that photogenic, you say ?

[Robbie @rfamwx]

@DontTofu Well, I had a driver with a 0.300BAC hit me with a vehicle he wasn’t even allowed to drive on the road
