It sure does look like the outflow or exhaust or whatever it is, is getting better.

OK Dummy question time

I know this is a MLC i think that's what everyone has been calling it. How can you tell its mid-level and LLC? I have a feeling the answer is complicated.

Just curious.

Doesn't look closed to me...so I think no to a TD tonight. It looks good on sat...but the lower levels are not lined up with the mid levels.

For clarification purposes, which loops or images or what-have-you do you look at to see what's low level, what's mid level, and what's upper level?

All I remember is someone (wxman247, maybe?) said, "Never EVER look at the water vapor loop to determine LLC." (Er,...I think that was it. It was something about never EVER look at the water vapor loop for something).

I was going by the outflow signature..bloom curvature is what I think it's called..not the LLC or MLC :wink: I just think it contiues to look more and more organized..no matter what it is!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
