Blog 4 Day 4 on 5 June

Monitoring radar and lightning jump -Flash Density over North AL and south TN.

Also using Prob severe. We already issued a warning for NC and NW AL. Having worked as a broadcast Met in this area for 17+ years it is very familiar to me. Unique experience to evaluate these products in an area where I’ve done many hours of severe now-casting.

Lightning jumps are going off on cell in Lincoln (already warned) and prob severe on line appr. NW AL is now at 82%. Also prob severe high on cell now in Jackson Cty. Prob severe rising rapidly

Am finding combo of flash and light jump very helpful in watching these cells which are developing rapidly. Almost seems as if it would be valuable to have one person doing traditional radar analysis and another using these tools over the same storms.
