Will we get a 5th tornado emergency?

Low topped supercells will still be possible in the new watch areas despite the limited instability, but the overall trend should be for more linear segments with wind damage as the primary threat.

Well NWS Memphis is being a little trigger happy so it's possible.

Wow. Keep in mind Jackson was devastated on 1/17/99 (F4, 6 fatalities) and 5/4/03 (F4, 11 fatalities).

#435 Postby **CrazyC83** » Tue Feb 05, 2008 9:11 pm

One thing to remember: due to hills, trees and HP supercells, in many areas the number of confirmed tornadoes may be higher than reported tornadoes.

All places have been using it more since Greensburg.

IMO the emergencies issued for Memphis were totally justified. Memphis has nearly 700,000 in the city proper.

Only one was for Memphis. Another was for Jackson (justified), the other two seemingly for rural areas.
