Made a few updates to how my STP parameter is calculated! DATA IS EXPERIMENTAL AND NOT 100% ACCURATE 🌪️ How my Significant Tornado Parameter is calculated — and why it’s better than SPC’s: STP = (CAPE term) × (LCL term) × (SRH term) × (shear term) Nothing new there. Here’s what’s different: CAPE: MetPy pseudoadiabatic parcel lift with virtual temp correction — the same NSHARP method SPC uses internally. Surface-based, with per-gridpoint station pressure derived from actual Mesonet altimeter readings. No hardcoded 1000mb nonsense. SRH: This is where it gets interesting. SPC computes SRH from RAP model winds. I fetch observed NEXRAD VAD wind profiles from all ~160 CONUS radar sites every 15 min, Barnes-interpolate them onto a 2.5km grid, and compute Bunkers storm motion from the actual hodograph. Model winds get used only as a gap-filler. Resolution: SPC’s mesoanalysis runs on a 40km grid. Mine is 2.5km — same resolution as RTMA. Shear gradients across boundaries, drylines, and outflow boundaries are resolved at a completely different scale. The honest caveat: I use SBCAPE where SPC uses MLCAPE for fixed-layer STP. That’s a known methodological difference we haven’t closed yet. Same formula. Better inputs. 16× finer grid. #tornado #analysis

RTMA looks sloppy cause of the convection how does the RAP initialize

Disregard that latest RTMA plot I just posted, forgot to change the date in the script lol

@RINL_VSP @PMOIndia RTMA expresses deep sorrow over the tragic loss of lives in the incident@ RINLVisakhapatnam.Our heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families & prayers for the speedy recovery of the injured. We stand with the entire RINL VSP fraternity in this hour of grief

Been working on a personal updated version of the SPC’s mesoanalysis data viewer for mobile. It pulls and interpolates RAP model data along with HRRR for STP, RTMA, and GOES-19 TPW to correct surface values. FULL DISCLAIMER: I’m an absolute chud and can’t code for the life of me so I’ve been 100% using Claude code and Gemini for research to construct this app. THIS WAS NOT MADE MY ME.

Working on the FireWxPy RTMA graphics. Users will get to choose how many hours back they want to compare. These are the 1-hourly trends of dew point depression and wind gust. Useful to see areas that have local drying/moistening trends to help monitor fire weather conditions.

While I wait for the ECCC Monthly Summary for ONT-here's May 2026-"real" air temperature analysis (C) from various weather stations is processed over a 2.5km grid thru RTMA-every 15mins of "real" data-we get this👇From midnight May 1, 2026 thru June 1 early AM #onwx #onstorm

Pour les ignorants le Maroc ne se limite pas à fournir de la main-d’œuvre:il accueille aussi des centres de R&D et d’ingénierie de haut niveau, comme le Stellantis Africa Technical Center, Renault Group RTMA, UM6P & OCP Innovation,MAScIR ou encore le centre de recherche de Safran

Interesting, given known hot spots didn't make it. I am meteo 461 instrumentation victim ( PSU course where we had to build and design instruments) Most thermometer errors back then have accelerating errors, the higher the temperature, as they are calibrated at 32F Unless there is meticulous upkeep more likely to read warm than cool. Do you know what class siting these are? For instance, when Coyle field hit 101 at 3:10, RTMA, which is pretty dang good had mid 90s. My dad actually proved ACY had the problem in July 1969. They. hit 106 and no one around them was above 95. So he brought 5 thermometers out on the runway ( he was in research) and found the thermometer had a runaway error as it got hotter. But really, that is odd. See the obs and the RTMA. I have never seen a 5-6 degree error on it, maybe a couple. Still this is more like a top 5 and will even be higher if it winds up being the hottest day of the summer ( dont laugh in 1976 it was in April) given the overall pattern this year Peace out

"Le Québec FRAPPÉ par une première vague de chaleur dès lundi".. Est-ce que vous encaissez bien le coup jusqu'ici dans le sud du Québec? RTMA (Real Time Mesoscale Analysis) à 19h z CDAS (Climate Data Assimilation System) dernières 24 h (ref. 1991-2020).

Beyond this post it did verify as expected with RTMA. We certainly had tornadoes, maybe a couple strong but nothing that caught a lot of attention. It’s a great thing for the people in the risk though, so we do have to see the bright side of each underperformance/bust!
Parallel shear vectors, too much dry air entrainment, terrible LLRS, over-mixing (High LCL’s), and CINH. Good environment above 3km, terrible environment at 0-3km. I think the LLJ ramping up over the next few hours and favorable nudgers/interactions may promote tornadoes.

The big question for today remains how long will it stay discrete? 16z RTMA/Sat do show a favorable corridor setting up in C KS, that should advect east in the afternoon. What matters is when/where it initiates, and if storms can take advantage of a very volatile environment

Wytłumaczę jako osoba pracująca w agencji. Do wyboru mieli błąd gramatyczny ale zrozumiałe odniesienie ubiera-ubiera albo poprawność języka i bełkot ubiera się - zakłada. Uznali, że lepiej zrobić śmiesznego RTMa i spuścić zasłonę milczenia skoro i tak pół Polski to mówi zamiast odpuścić okazję na śmieszny pomysł diabeł vs papież. Reklama to ani nie literatura wysoka ani ministerstwo prawdy. A obrażanie się na rzeczywistość to dziecinada.
