This right here is some of the best radar data I've seen from DOW.

On the Correlation Coefficient panel you don't just see the the debris in the tornado, like a normal TDS, but you also see debris being sucked into the tornado in faint spiral banding. You then see the lofted debris being dispersed out as the rotation dies.

I don't know if they got multiple tilts of this storm, but if they did it would be great to see the debris at different heights.

And this has alot of people in a tizzy right now, but we don't know (because they haven't really said) how high off the ground the wind was measured. It wasn't ground level wind, but that doesn't stop people from believing it is proof of an honest-to-God EF5.

One of my least favorite things involving weather is all the amateurs babbling about how a tornado should be rated

Especially if it's less than 24 hours since the tornado even happened

ETA: I do see now it's from Friday at least

I'm not a professional but I haven't seen any damage that looked EF5 worthy yet.

They're saying it's right on top of the radar at Shreveport airport

It is. It doesn't have a confirmed tag, radar or otherwise right now, though.

Yeah, the area of rotation is. So it’s hard to tell how strong the rotation is.

Unfortunately these east Texas storms are in a poor radar coverage area.

It got hairy for a few minutes. Me and the wife finally had a kid free night and had to end it to go get the kids. Now huddled up with the babysitter

I don’t think it was anything on the ground but wind got hard

Jeez, some storms came out of nowhere and headed to OKC metro. This was unexpected and unforecast. Not alarming just surprised
