ProbTor Trends on Storm in State College CWA

While spinning up in the Philly CWA, noticed a persistent signal in the ProbTor values with a storm tracking through central Pennsylvania.

While we don't have the KCCX data at this point, you can see the persistent rotation on the MRMS Low-Level Rotation tracks.  At the time of this image at 1840Z, the ProbTor value peaked at 74%.
1840Z MRMS Display: ProbTor maxed at 74% (lower left panel). 

Here is a loop of the the storm over the last hour, with the trend up in ProbTor values.

In addition, the ProbTor was above 20% for nearly an hour.
