I wish you would reply to what I wrote rather than creating your own interpretation. I don't "blame" TWX. That word does not appear anywhere in my posts.
Agreed - and my apologies if it came across that way. The first post to bring up this topic clearly looked to pass blame, so that's what I was clearing out.
Truncating volume scans is an idea whose time has come based on numerous conversations (including with aviation interests) the past year.
I agree - and from my understanding the FAA has said they will not allow truncated scans with precip occurring. As I understand, AVSET took a lot more work to get through than needed because of it.
As I understand it, there was a funnel cloud report (it was darkness). This was less than one hour before Harveyville.
Does a funnel cloud in the dark necessitate the need for an hour long blanket TOR? I don't think so, but now we're getting too close to Monday morning QB. I checked the chatroom logs and didn't see anyone suggesting anything out of the ordinary with that cell, so if all the TV, NWS, private sector mets and EMs had no issues during the event, it is hard for me to go back and point out the "obvious" at this stage.
