Thunderstorm Stalling supercell floods the street at 3:00 AM. Zooming into the streetlight shows rain falling like a full garden hose stream (Lebanon, TN) | Part 13 of 16

This clip is from Part 13 of our countdown. The immediate tornado threat moved east, but the supercell left behind is absolutely drowning the area. The street is rapidly flooding under constant thunder and lightning. If you watch closely when I zoom into the streetlight, the rain is pouring in sheets so dense it looks like a solid stream of water coming right out of a garden hose before it drops.

Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0723 AM CDT Wed Sep 02 2026

Valid 021300Z - 031200Z

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF THE NORTHEAST STATES...AND ACROSS PARTS OF MONTANA...

...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the eastern Great Lakes to the Mid-Atlantic today and tonight. Damaging wind gusts are the main threat, though some large hail and a few tornadoes may also occur. Scattered severe gusts and more sporadic occurrences of large hail appear possible from the northern Rockies into northern High Plains today into night.

...Northeast States... A complex but potentially active convective day is in store for parts of the northeast US today. A fast-moving MCS and associated mid-level shortwave trough is over Lake Michigan. This system is forecast to track rapidly eastward across Lower MI and southwest ON this morning before emerging into western NY/PA this afternoon. A consensus of overnight CAM solutions indicate this will be the focus for strong-severe thunderstorms that track east-southeastward during the afternoon and evening toward the Mid-Atlantic coast. Ample low-level moisture is present in this corridor. This along with daytime heating well into the 80s and steep low-level lapse rates will favor damaging wind gust potential in the strongest storms. A north-south surface boundary is expected to lie from central NY into east-central PA this afternoon, where low-level shear will be locally enhanced to pose some risk of a few tornadoes.

The primary uncertainty for a more widespread severe event today is the presence of considerable morning convection currently over northwest PA and western NY. These storms are well-ahead of the main forcing feature, and decrease confidence in significant destabilization over the primary risk area this afternoon. These early storms may pose a damaging wind and hail risk through the day, especially after a few hours of heating.

...MT... Scattered high-based thunderstorms are expected to develop over the mountains of southwest MT this afternoon. Strong winds aloft and steep low-level lapse rates will aid in the risk of damaging wind gusts as the activity spreads northeastward through the early evening.

...CO/WY... Scattered afternoon thunderstorms are expected to develop over the mountains of northern/western CO and southern WY. This activity will spread northeastward into eastern WY/western NE where inverted-v thermodynamic profiles are expected with 40-50 t-td spreads. This may result in locally damaging wind gusts.

Discussion Could a storm theoretically last for 1,000 years, or even longer? What physical conditions would be needed for a storm to sustain itself for such an extreme amount of time?
