Pretty cool to witness a weak mesovortex in the winter on radar. If this exact storm happened in summer, circumstances could be different but at this temperature, we’re simply dealing with a strong snow squall. While we’re on that topic, I personally have a strange gut feeling about this upcoming storm season. Historically, in southern Ontario, the La Niña storm season that follows a strong El Niño in Southern Ontario has yielded significant storms, often with significant tornadoes. Will that ha

NEW video: QLCS mesovortex with #tornado warning ramps up in Forest, MS earlier today. This long-track supercell would go on to produce a strong to violent tornado in Pickens Co, AL. Drone footage is squall line near GA border. LIVE severe weather briefings every single day resume tomorrow morning to discuss another potential Dixie Alley severe weather threat early next week.

The evolution of Hurricane Melissa's mesovortices at peak strength. Processed by Dakota Smith. "An eyewall mesovortex is a small-scale rotational feature found in an eyewall of an intense tropical cyclone. Eyewall mesovortices are similar, in principle, to small "'suction Vortices" often observed in multiple-vortex tornadoes. In these vortices, wind speed can be up to 10% higher than in the rest of the eyewall." #HurricaneMelissa | Jess Kramer

LOOK AT THESE! You've probably never heard of "mesovortices," but the eyes of major/intensifying hurricanes, like Category 5 Melissa, actually contain addition, smaller whirls a few miles across. Mesovortices are a few miles across; they form as a way to balance an extreme discontinuity in angular momentum. In the buzzsaw-like eyewall – that ring of winds spiraling around the eye – there's an incredible amount of extreme wind and "angular momentum." But in the eye, there's hardly any – the air i
