Tornado outbreak of January 30, 2022

The January 30, 2022, tornado outbreak was a significant, and usually far north tornado outbreak for that time of year, that affected the state of New Bloxia. This was the third major tornado outbreak of that year.

On January 28, 2022, 1200, a trough came off the Telamon, crossed the central Egbert, and began to inject into northern New Bloxia. It first started as a snowstorm/rainstorm in Southeast Bloxoming, Southeast New Bloxia, and New Blockers City; it was too cold for storm initiation in one state. On the first 12 hours of the outbreak, a few weak tornadoes touched down in Southern New Bloxia and New Blockers City. Next 12 hours, the thunderstorm, and tornado risk went up greatly, and tornadoes were confirmed in New Bloxia and New Blockers City.

The last twelve hours, it shifted to a squall line threat, and it developed, and moved fast across the Bloxington Ocean. Multiple wind damage reports were in the Bloxington Ocean; there were no waterspouts reported with the line.

All and all, severe weather associated with the system responsible for the deaths of eight Robloxians (six from tornadoes) and around 32 injuries were reported. Damage was estimated to have been around ~R$800 billion, making it a costly tornado event in New Bloxia history.

First 12 Hours
With the trough rapidly advancing through the Egbert, and a rapidly deepening low over northeast Bloxorado, it began to pull moisture from the gulf into an advancing warm front orientated east-west in northern New Rosey. The upper-level trough begins shifting orientation from West-east to Southwest-Northeast of up to 20 kts. By 0600, meager CAPE of ~500 J/KG and dewpoints combined with close to 100 m2/s2 of 0-3 km shear in Southern New Bloxia, allowed for the development of severe weather in along the dryline in south central New Bloxia, and move NE along the advancing warm front. This had the RSPC warrant a slight risk of storms in Northern part of New Rosey and Southern New Bloxia, though the slight risk of storms was later extended to New Blockers City. This allowed severe thunderstorms with hail and damaging winds to occur, along with the Southern New Bloxia severe thunderstorm. However, it was overall inhibited in the southern part of the warm sector in Northern New Rosey.

Last 12 Hours
The surface low began to track northeast transferring into Northeast New Bloxia and New Blockers City by 1800, where it slowed down and began to pivot the cold farther to the east. It also had the warm front advance farther north into Southern New Rampshire and New Rampshire's capital, with the previous 12 hours’ storms dying quickly as noon approached due to lack of surface heating. The warm sector over central and western Iowa relativity, which combined with winds out of the ESE and a deepening low. allowed for a large deep pool of moisture in Western and central New Bloxia of temperatures unseasonably high in the area and dewpoints also unseasonably high in the area. However, with the 1900 RSPC Outlook release, shortly after thunderstorms began to form (there being practically no cloud cover), it allowed the temperatures to become even more unseasonably high, allowing the cap to break from northern to southern New Bloxia into Northern New Rosey. That combined well veered wind profiles and storm-relative helicity values up to 150 m2/s2 of 0-1 km shear over the warm sector. That combined with capping allowing isolated storms to form along the cold front, and high CAPE values up to 1500-2000 J/kg in central New Bloxia added up to allow for the development of robust, and rotating thunderstorms along a line from Southern New Rampshire into Northern New Rosey. This, by the update of the RSPC, warranted a high risk of tornadoes in Central New Bloxia and New Blockers City. By 1900, storms began forming, producing tornadoes. Multiple tornadic thunderstorms began to popup all over Central New Bloxia, and even in New Blockers City. However, most of the New Blockers City storms were inhibited by cap. However, by 2000, a large squall line began to develop along the cold front rapidly advancing on the tornadic thunderstorms, causing mergers, and inhibiting supercells from producing tornadoes with the squall line quickly outrunning the cold front, preventing a QLCS event to evolve from the line of storms. From this, the RSPC downgraded the risk from HIGH risk to MODERATE in New Blockers City.

New Bloxia Capital EF3
A funnel began to descend from the mesocyclone; the touchdown seemed to be in a field at the intersection of an avenue and a court. The tornado started moving NNE along an avenue to the county line. Damage was weaker in that county, with the strongest only being EF0 damage to small barns, causing them to lose their wood roof panels. The tornado began to rapidly expand in size from a smaller funnel to a fully condensed cone tornado. As the tornado crossed the county line into the next county, it hit a smaller subdivision in the corner of the county. A few single-family residences in the process were destroyed, one of them registering a EF2 rating (117 mph) for the garage door being collapsed inward. The tornado crossed a road where along the road it recorded another rating of EF2 (118 mph) when one well-constructed single wide manufactured home's undercarriage was separated from its unit. The tornado kept rapidly expanding, hitting a double wide manufactured home, causing it to roll, displace, and vault. At this point the tornado was up to 150 meters wide and doing very intense tree damage as it crossed an Interblox and paralleled a river to the ENE. As the tornado approached a parkway and a state route, it hit lots of apartments in the area in EF3 (140 mph) intensity consistently throughout the area, causing the roof structures of them to be uplifted, collapsed in some instances, with most walls standing still. This is also where the first fatality would occur. As the tornado crossed over the state route and approached the northern side of Roalbany International Airport, the storm began to exhibit cycloidal marks in the fields. At this point, the tornado was about 500 meters wide, and moving ENE at about 80 MPH, at this point the Robloxia Weather Service had issued a PDS tornado warning for the area. - KDMX 012345

RWS Walley The tornado would hit the north side of the airport, before slamming into a community as a very high-end EF3 (165 mph) tornado. Lots of motels in the community were reported to have few top story walls. As it continued ENE, it also hit another community. This is where the path for a quarter mile it was consistent with that of a EF4 tornado, especially along a street, where many masonry apartments along the road were reporting their top two floors collapsing, including the exterior walls of a small retail building. This is where majority of the five fatalities occurred. The tornado remained large, it began to lose intensity as it crossed over its third community, where majority of the small professional buildings' roof structure in the path were uplifted or collapsed, mostly in the EF3 (139 mph) range. The tornado crossed over another state route and then a river, and then hitting a strip mall. The entire roof structure of the strip mall was uplifted. It led to the roof structure touching down into a river. The tornado approached the SW side of its fourth community, first by hitting a large shopping mall which the entire of the roof structure was collapsed by the tornado. Unfortunately, there were no tornado shelters in place to protect Robloxians and their heads, but fortunately, there were restrooms in place to protect Robloxians and their heads. From there it struck the south side of the community. The tornado's strength was not waning, and the max damage sustained was EF3 (139 mph) to a couple of large, isolated retail buildings, causing their walls to collapse inward or outward. At this point the tornado was about a quarter mile wide and was showing signs of being a multi-vortex tornado. The tornado crossed over its third state route before hitting a non-notable unincorporated community. With it being weaker at this point, most of the automobile showrooms hit where only in EF2 (118 mph) range as their roofs were uplifted or collapsed. The tornado continued and crossed over another state route where it descended into a big bulb shaped tornado. However, with this large appearance, after crossing the highway, damage from there to the county line at its max was only EF2 (117 mph) when one automobile service building's tilt-up walls were collapsed. After it crossed into its third county, it was seen as only a rope tornado, and began to rapidly dissipate. The tornado began to turn more to the right, and at the intersection of a street and an avenue, it lifted in an open field. This tornado caused nearly 500 billion ROBUX in damages along its path. It would be responsible for five fatalities and 27 injuries.

New Blockers City "A" EF2
The first indication of this tornado touching down was near a street to just the Southeast of New Blockers City and moved quickly towards New Blockers City. Right at the beginning, as it skirted the Northwest side of New Blockers City, while being only 25 to 50 yards wide. As it left New Blockers City, it had damage with that of a EF1 (90 mph) tornado. The tornado continued NNE towards a river, and once it reached the area of the river and the county line, it started doing very high-end EF2 (135 mph) damage. Once it crossed into the county line, multiple elementary schools were reporting uplifted or collapsed roofs. One of the elementary schools had debatably EF3 (139-141 mph) damage as they reported collapsed non-bearing walls, but due to inconsistences of the elementary school, it was leveled at 135 MPH EF2. In this area is where the only one fatality occurred in this area while it rapidly expanded in size from a large cone tornado to a wedge tornado. With it beginning to peak in size at nearly 0.75 miles wide to the East of a city. Most junior high schools along the path at this time were reporting uplifted or collapsed light steel roofs, most of them being consistent with that of a EF2 tornado. With this the tornado dropped in size from a 0.75-mile-wide tornado to a 0.5-mile-wide tornado as it re-approached New Blockers City and began to hit the city at 7:38 PM. The tornado while having the main core flow pass through the southern side of the tornado; nearly 45% of the city had suffered some type of tornado damage. The tornado however was not as strong as it was in the southwest side of the county. Most of the damage was in the EF1 (90 mph) range in the southeast side of the city, with a low-rise building having the worst damage in the city, at EF2 (121 mph) range, as windows broke. It shifted through the right side of the city doing its greatest building damage on the southeast side of town. It left the city crossing over a state route by 7:42 pm. The tornado reentered towards New Blockers City, New Bloxia, while the tornado’s size continued to wane as it moved across the central county. While in the process, having damage with the consistent to a EF1-EF2 (104-120 mph) tornado to multiple high-rise buildings to the south and east of New Blockers City, damaging their parapet walls. Once it crossed into another county, it kept waning in strength, while maintaining its wide size of up to a quarter mile wide. It continued NE to a city and a state route in the county in the range of EF1 (90-104 mph) damage in the southwest side of the county. After it crossed over a state route, it begun to shrink inside, and damage in these areas was very weak. At the intersection of a street and an avenue to the NNE of the city, the tornado lifted. With this tornado lifting, it would cause the death of one Robloxian, and in the process, injuring five others, while causing ~R$200 billion in damages.

New Blockers City "B" EF2
This New Blockers City tornado intimately touched down near the intersection of a street and an avenue in a county to the WSW of New Blockers City, and moved to the ENE, heading directly towards the city. The tornado began building into up to 80 mph strength while entering the city, only being seen as a multi-vortex tornado at this point at approximately 100 meters wide. After leaving the city, the tornado the tornado continued towards an Interblox crossing north. The tornado kept expanding in size, and as it crossed over into another county, it began to fully condense as a wedge tornado, as well as showing more strength, as EF1 damage (97 mph) began to be exhibited by the tornado to multiple institutional buildings in the western side of the county, as windows broke. As the tornado moved south and east of New Blockers City, the tornado would shrink in size from about 500 meters wide to about 250 meters wide but started to do its most intense damage from New Blockers City to the New Bloxia river where a couple of metal building systems' roof purlins were totally buckled in, extremely high-end EF2 (135 mph) range. The tornado crossed over into another county and expanded in size again to about 500 meters wide. Despite the wide size, it did weaker damage, mainly that of a EF1-EF2 (97-135 mph) tornado before the city of New Blockers. Before entering the city, the tornado was still 400-500 meters wide, and doing damage with that of an EF1-EF2 (97-114 mph) tornado. The tornado struck the city; every structure in the city was damaged, over 38% of the city reported 115 mph winds. Miraculously no one was injured. The tornado continued off to the ENE, beginning to really shrink in size from a wedge tornado to a big cylinder-shaped tornado as it approached the county line. It crossed the line now in EF0 (80 mph) to EF2 (114 mph) range. However, it quickly skated to the SE of a city, and quickly moved into another county, following along the riverbed of a river, doing pretty significant service station canopy damage along the river. The tornado continued to shrink in size, before being seen as a rain-wrapped rope tornado as it crossed over a state route north of a city. The tornado at this rate was very weak and doing only meager damage to warehouse buildings and an electrical transmission line in the northern side of a county. The tornado finally lifted near the intersection of two roads to the SE of a city. The tornado would rack up nearly 80 billion ROBUX in damage. This tornado would not have any injuries or deaths occurring with this tornado.
