After many years on this app, if you’re looking for information, I believe that the through line is finding those that care about people. In a sea of change — science, algorithms, political landscapes — that generally remains constant.
I’m getting some requests to “show my work” for my beam height estimate based on this graphic. Here you go. Even with a slightly overestimated range, the beam height still ends up being 250-300 m at the range of the tornado, far above ground level.

Putting this out there: Insurance pays out on the tornado damage to repair every item broken on a building or replace a destroyed one. The payouts are agnostic of tornado rating. Damage is damage. It doesn't matter if it's EF-0 or EF-5.
This won’t get very far because I am not a social media personality, but to all the young scientists out there, this “take” is an opinion and nothing more. Retain your passion, do the work to understand the science, put people first and, above all, practice humility.

This is incredible. About as high-end as it gets.
The SOO at omaha, who was on radar at times today, is a man who: 1). Cares about the weather. 2). Cares about people. 3). Cares about doing things right. Those things mattered today. He’ll never brag on himself, so i’ll do it for him. His office came through today.

This was a historic day for violent tornadoes in Nebraska and Iowa. One that won’t be repeated for (likely) quite some time.
NWS Omaha's warning product generation this afternoon was nothing short of heroic. As of 7:45 PM 164 SVS (followup to TOR,SVR warnings) 102 LSR (Local Storm Reports) 42 Tornado Warnings 25 Severe Thunderstorm Warnings Those SVS and LSR counts take extreme levels of effort.
Two debris signatures in the same volume scan. Every mature supercell is producing significant tornadoes with this storm environment in place across eastern NE and western Iowa.
There might be aliasing issues occurring here but this storm has all of the hallmarks of a violent tornado and this is a radar grab that I’m hanging onto for a long time.
Damaging tornado moving through Elkhorn, NE into the west Omaha suburbs. I know this area very well having lived there and this is not good given the radar signature.
We can’t sample the tornadocyclone itself but from pictures and videos, it is massive and radar confirms. The circulation is absolutely huge.

The entire Minden, Iowa tornado sequence in 4K from Fri, Apr 26th: youtu.be/RHrIXMMMdnk
Starting off my shift with a nice FROPA!
@Wx_Louisiana In true Nebraska fashion, the property had quickly been cleared well before we could arrive to assess the damage. The homeowner shared photos of the damage before cleanup. There was an interior wall and other debris that remained. Hope that helps a bit.
Just got done with Sulphur! Long hard day, so much goes into ratings! This was extremely eye opening! @NWSNorman and @TornadoTornado doing amazing work to do the “forensic investigations” to give the truth of what happened on the ground!
Excellence here in so many ways.
I have nothing but respect for NWS Storm Prediction Center and its forecasters. @NWSSPC is THE best severe wx forecast office in the world, full stop. 👏 👏 Their critics have clearly never spent a day in the hot seat. 🔥 🪑 🔥
I’m getting some requests to “show my work” for my beam height estimate based on this graphic. Here you go. Even with a slightly overestimated range, the beam height still ends up being 250-300 m at the range of the tornado, far above ground level.
Preliminary Wind Summary Measurements and Analysis from Harlan, IA tornado on Friday (26 April 2024). Winds of ~224 mph and diameter of max winds of ~2966 ft. Observations were taken as part of the @NSF -sponsored #BEST project led by @karen_kosiba and @JoshuaWurman
@JonahPehl @hebrooks87 @JordanHallWX Relevant discussion of the use of radar to estimate tornado intensity: journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/…
@JordanHallWX In this case, 8 km away, so ~280 m AGL.
@JordanHallWX The definition of the winds associated with the EF scale are 3-second gusts at 10 m AGL, not instantaneous winds at whatever height the radar is looking at.
@TTrogdon It’s a bad opinion from someone who has no intellectual basis to make such a statement . Dunning Kruger If someone was extensively trained, experienced, and had surveyed the damage in person, I’d be more open minded. I know such people and they wouldn’t state such publicly.
If science were conducting in the half-assed, flippant manner some of y’all throw out your opinions, we’d be in big, big trouble. Pardon me while I light my degree and 17 years experience on fire because untrained dude bro has the answer! Yes, I’m human, yes I’m frustrated. 😩
