Has anyone looked at the radar lately? There's a massive cell heading right for Ascension Parish later. Potential for rotation with it soon.

I see it. No rotation yet. Watching for lightning

It's pretty dark in South Baton Rouge and the dogs started to get clingy so looks like the storms are starting here.

kickball sized hail? Holy mother of god lol!
Volleyball sized hail is the US record
The largest recorded hailstone in the U.S. was nearly as big as a volleyball and fell on July 23, 2010, in Vivian, South Dakota. It was 8 inches in diameter and weighed almost 2 pounds.

That cell looks more like a Baton Rouge pass than Ascension imo.
Posted on 4/18/19 at 11:21 am to TIGERBAIT84
Yes on second look I would agree with that.

I'm glad to see all this minor convection ahead of the best dynamics. Lowers our risk, specifically for tornadoes.
Want to see all the BR people bitching about "bust" later.
Still hours to go while the main show gets together out west of here.

A smaller cell did pop up to the NW of the semi large cell that just crossed the Thibodaux area.
It seems to be a nasty little cell.

Oh don't you worry. That's going to happen no matter what.

Where are you duke?

This cell is headed right for me in South BR. Do I need to take shelter in my house, or is it not to that point yet
Posted on 4/18/19 at 11:25 am to Tester1216
Duke is referencing the squall line developing out between Lake Charles and Lafayette I believe.

Duke says no. It's not severe at the moment.

Chances are it wouldn't be as big as those previously observed in the quad.
