Play Nice Now NWS.....
« on: July 09, 2014, 10:26:24 PM »
This happened a few weeks ago in my NWS Office area and thought it was worth sharing. Apparently, NWS Charleston, WV and NWS Wilimington, OH didn't get along too well one day in regards to a tornado warning, which in my opinion, created the weirdest tornado warning polygon in history. The guys over in Wilmington thought the tornado had enough rotation to produce a tornado (It dropped an EF-0), while the people over at Charleston did not. More at the link below:
