Cell merger on the storm west of Little Rock may give it a boost. Already warned and the rotation has tightened up a bit.


That's why you always watch cell mergers. Watch the two cells merge and the boost it gives to the original meso:

Just saw your hail pics in the other thread. That hail was crazy! Can’t believe they got that much. Very close to us and we got very little and sounded small.

I thought isolated storms/cells are more tornadic and when merging that can dilute both storms as they line out. Still get hail and high winds and heavy rain but the merge changes energy and dilutes tornados?

Significant damage to sturdy buildings in Indian Lakes. Citizens are using personal vehicles to recover people from damaged areas and transporting for medical. Also has power lines down in water.

Not always. Depending on the environment it takes semi-discrete storms merging to put a storm over the top. The merger can change the shear dynamics and help a storm wrap up more efficiently. With some setups you just won't see tornadoes without mergers.

ETA: You see it have more of an impact when storm motions are similar to what we have tonight.

Two tornado warnings one 25 miles north and one twenty miles south earlier today. I had paid house insurance about an hour before

HSV is where a lot of money is, I’m guessing buildings there are built well.

Another thing on that storm, you saw it keep clean inflow to the south. So, after the merger it still had good inflow and was able to wrap it up.
