This chase was and has been the most intense Texas Tornado Chase I've been on yet! We traveled all over Central Texas to Chase this Outbreak of Severe Weather on March 21, 2022! Several Tornados were reported and several cities were impacted by this severe weather event. Unfortunately reports are that someone may have lost their life during this event.

...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms will be capable of producing tornadoes, wind
damage and isolated large hail this evening across parts of the
central Gulf Coast states.
...Central Gulf Coast States...
Latest water vapor imagery shows an upper-level trough in the
southern Plains, with cyclonically-curved southwest mid-level flow
in the Southeast. A shortwave trough is located within this flow
across central and northwestern Alabama. At the surface, a moist
airmass is located from the Lower Mississippi Valley eastward across
the central Gulf Coast, where dewpoints are in the 60s and lower 70s
F. In this area, the RAP has MLCAPE ranging from 500 J/Kg in central
Alabama to around 2000 J/kg near Mobile. A line of strong to severe
thunderstorms is ongoing along the western edge of the stronger
instability across southern Mississippi and southeast Louisiana.
More discrete storms are ongoing in southwestern Alabama.
In addition to the instability, strong deep-layer shear is present
across the central Gulf Coast. The WSR-88D VWP at Mobile, Alabama
has 0-6km shear near 55 knots with 0-3 storm relative helicity
around 550 m2/s2. This environment should continue to be favorable
for supercells and tornadoes. The greatest tornado threat will be
near the axis of the low-level jet in southwest Alabama early this
evening, where a significant tornado will be possible. The stronger
supercells within a north-to-south band in southwestern Alabama will
also be capable of damaging wind gusts and isolated large hail.
Further to the west, an isolated tornado threat will also exist
early this evening with supercells that persist within a line of
storms across southern Mississippi and southeast Louisiana. The
severe threat will also continue further northeastward across
central and northern Alabama, but weak instability should keep the
severe threat more localized. Overall, the severe threat should
become more isolated late this evening as instability decreases
across the region. A lingering threat of damaging winds could
persist during the overnight across southeastern Alabama and the
Florida Panhandle. #Tornado #stormchase #tornado warning #Tornados #Nado #tornadoes #oklahoma tornado #TORNADO VIDEOS #severeweather #weather
