Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is a “Super Cell Thunderstorm “? Here is the correct answer.  A Supercell Thunderstorm is potentially the most dangerous of the convective storm types. Storms possessing this structure have been observed to generate the vast majority of long-lived strong and violent (F2-F5) tornadoes, as well as downburst damage and large hail. It is defined as a thunderstorm consisting of one quasi-steady to rotating updraft which may exist for several hours. Supercells usually move to the right of the mean wind. These are called “Right Movers” and they are favored with veering winds. Occasionally, these thunderstorms will move to the left of the mean wind. These thunderstorms are called “Left Movers”. These supercells typically don’t last as long as their “Right Mover” cousins and they usually only produce large hail (greater than 3/4 inch in diameter) and severe wind gusts in the excess of 58 miles an hour. Left Movers are favored when you have backing winds.

____________

An Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (“U” shape) takes over. The graphics for days 1-3 show a complex frontal system moving into Oregon late tonight and Sunday. The graphics for days 3-7   Tuesday through Saturday show complex frontal system moving northeastward through the Pacific Northwest Sunday. A complex frontal system will slide through Oregon Wednesday and Thursday. Then a complex frontal system will be moving in between Friday and next Saturday.

Note: Lane County residents will have to wait until Friday, November 1, 2024, at the earliest for the opening of the fall outdoor burning season. The season is typically scheduled to start on October 1st each year. However, the decision to delay has been jointly made by the Lane County Fire Defense Board and the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF).

Here is my weekly weather quiz question. What is a “Super Cell Thunderstorm “?

____________

An Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) will dry us out for a while. The graphics for days 1-3 show a complex frontal system moving into Oregon Saturday. The graphics for days 3-7   Sunday through Thursday show complex frontal system moving northeastward through the Pacific Northwest Sunday. A complex frontal system will be approaching the coast Wednesday and next Thursday.

Note: Lane County residents will have to wait until Friday, November 1, 2024, at the earliest for the opening of the fall outdoor burning season. The season is typically scheduled to start on October 1st each year. However, the decision to delay has been jointly made by the Lane County Fire Defense Board and the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF).
