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.
Yeah the correlation coefficient (and dual polarization in general) has really made radar an even more incredible tool. It allows us to quickly see when a tornado is lofting debris and allows for better warnings.

3 active tornado warnings right now and we're just getting started. It's gonna be a long day across Louisiana.
EDIT: 4, if you count the one that's heading from Texas toward the Zwolle area.

Not just La, a good portion of the entire South.

I hate these types of days but love them at the same time.

The storm between Ft. Polk and Alexandria doesn’t look as strong (but it’s still dangerous and tornado warned). Might be recycling or is getting cut off from the best inflow.

radar really lighting up right now, 5 tornado warned cells
Posted on 12/16/19 at 12:15 pm to Roll Tide Ravens
Looks like it got rain wrapped and weakened some. Hope that trend continues

I think prior to the Joplin tornado, or maybe the year before, it was a "best guess" type thing. Mets had a good idea that it was debris, but were not able to say with any certainty that it was debris. Now, less than a decade later, layman can pick out a debris ball on radar and be correct a large majority of the time. Short of visual proof by spotters, it may be the best tell that a tornado is on the ground.
Now, radar is getting better and better at showing size and intensity simply by the debris ball.

Watch the cell near Ville Platte, got some rotation showing up and seemingly in a good spot to keep going.

I dont know how the ville platte storm is not warned.

I'm surprised that one hasn't been warned.
EDIT: Wait. Just popped on RadarScope.

Smaller cell near Church Point eventually crossing 49 is another one to keep an eye on. Back end hinting at rotation. Watch for lightning. All of our warned cells have been popping off lightning as they mature.
Which, you know, says there's a good updraft associated with it.

That one just popped up as warned on RadarScope as well. That's 6 warned cells right now.
EDIT: 7. There's one up near Arkansas I missed.

Alexandria storm has gotten real Broad. I wouldnt be shocked if it is just getting stronger.
Just as I posted, it happened on the next frame

7 tornado warned storms in Louisiana, 1 in Mississippi.
Posted on 12/16/19 at 12:26 pm to Roll Tide Ravens
I expect the one by Zwolle to expire. Not much happening in the way of rotation

To those who use Radarscope, how is it on mobile?

Just got a tornado warning notification in Alexandria. KALB is now calling it a “Tornado Emergency” for Oak Hill area
