Another bad looking radar.
Any damages reported from earlier tornado warnings?

At about what time can we expect it to get ugly. If it will, near BR?

It formed right after it went over top of me. It was scary for about 15 minutes.

You don't see images like that very often with Louisiana tornadoes. Wow.

Reed Timmer is Facebook Live doing updates (not out chasing)

on the correlation coefficient model... the Ft. Polk tornado ... where reds and blues came together... there was some purple starting to show up

If you look at the hook in the top of the image I posted, you will see a ball of higher reflectivity at the bottom of the hook. This is known as a debris ball, because it is caused by the radar beam bouncing off the debris that is being lofted into the air by the tornado. It is a good indicator that you have a strong tornado on the ground.

That’s just the circulation on the velocity (the rotating winds). To see debris, you need to look at reflectivity or correlation coefficient.

The amazing thing about radar advancements over the past few years is that it doesn't even take a large or strong tornado to show a debris signature. I've noticed smaller and smaller tornados producing the signature over the past few years. Radar is so good these days, and is continuing to improve.
