May 31 2019

The active weather has brought the National Weather Service back to Howard County for the second time in the past week. The official survey crew investigated the tornado in Glenelg that was confirmed by Doppler Radar and possible on the video here as well. This was among many other storm reports across our region. Below is a list of all reports for Thursday May 30 2019. These include tree damage and wind gusts.

 

 

NWS Preliminary Results

A full report will be available this event. I have more information below.

 

EF Tornado in Glenelg

As I had mentioned online, the hail is often in a different location of the storm cell than the tornado. In this case, it was located to the north. I showed that on the Doppler Image snapshot and reposted that below.

 

 

Doppler Radar Loop

This cell produced flooding in the city of Frederick. as it moved east. But watch the cell along I-95 moving between Silver Spring, Glen Burnie and Baltimore. That shows movement to the northeast, while the Frederick storm was moving to the east-southeast.

 

I’ve annotated a key frame here to illustrate what is in the loop above. This was an indication of wind sheer in the atmosphere. The wind flow ahead of the Frederick cell helped to give this storm rotation and drop the funnel cloud.

 

 

The Velocity Scan of Doppler Radar shows the rotation hook and funnel.

 

The Doppler Radar standard return you are use to seeing shows that hail fell to the north, which is often on a different side of the storm cell.

 

Here is JP Arnold capturing what he believes was the tornado touching down within a 100 yards of him pulling over
