... Tropical funnel clouds possible...
At 103pm... the National Weather Service has received a report of
a funnel cloud in the vicinity of Grand Lake la.
A very moist and unstable tropical airmass is in place across the
area. Meanwhile... the vertical wind profile over the area is light
and variable. These conditions are favorable for the development
of tropical funnel clouds... especially where rain cooled
boundaries... known as outflow boundaries... and the seabreeze
collide.
These tropical funnel clouds are usually short-lived and do not
reach the ground. If The Funnel cloud becomes more severe and
reaches the ground... minor damage may occur... and a Tornado
Warning will likely be issued.
Stay tuned for later statements and updates on this weather
situation.
