Just wanted to pop in and say that I love all of your videos!! I’m someone who is a complete novice when it comes to storms and meteorological science. I’m not a storm chaser, but I am fascinated by severe storms and really enjoy learning through the experiences of those out there in the field. I know that your videos, especially the ones going over hodographs, are more geared toward people who have a good working knowledge of reading and interpreting weather data. I’ve watched all of them, and they are so fascinating that I’ve spent even more time trying to learn more so that I can fully grasp everything you touch on. Even though there has been material that is over my head, you still do a really great job of breaking things down in an easy to digest and understand manner. It would be amazing if you ever get the opportunity to create a video that breaks down some of the more complex data analysis stuff. I think it could help a lot of people! Either way, keep up the great work!
This was amazing! Taking my notes while watching this for the second time! I'm still wondering how to predict wind events, although they may be more simple? I know a few things, but not quite enough. Anyways, thank you for this informative video!
Fascinating video !! I have two questions :-) 1) I have often read that the quantity of supercooled water inside a cumulonimbus is important for the formation of hail, but here you do not talk about it. Is this an outdated concept? 2) Can the reasoning about the storm-relative wind also be applied to the mean motion vector (the small brown square on the hodograph)? You apply it to the RM in your video. By the way, do you plan to make similar videos for the other two hazards, tornadoes and microbursts ?
I have a question, There have been some Supercells that produce Strong Tornadoes with Large Hail, are those events most recorded in Cell Mergers/Off-season Tornado events?
Big thanks!
Brilliant video! Should be watched by every professional forecaster.
Thank you so much for the video! I love seeing your research, it is very informative and inspirational!
A very good educational video about forecasting this phenomenon. Thank you Dr Nixon !!!

This is brilliant. Thank you very much!
Thanks! This will help keep my windshield in-tact this May
Yes, great content and learned new things from it.

just in time to add to my road trip learning vids!
Brilliant video prof Nixon can you share your slides please?
