You underestimate the shark exhibit at the Newport Aquarium outside of Cinci. Ripe for some dry land sharknadoing.

Given the location, I'd say the chances of a sharknado are disappointingly low.


Yeah, climo doesn't really favor this area

Yeah we're pretty concerned about the potential up here in Louisville, especially since it'll hit here in the middle of the night. Also concerned about the hail that we'll likely get. Doesn't look like we'll be getting much sleep tonight


SPC has been stressing the overnight tornado threat since this morning.

NWS SPC?Verified account @NWSSPC 28m28 minutes ago More A tornado risk is likely to last well through the night. Plan now: It's a good idea to get alerts via NOAA Weather Radio and/or cell phone.


Another one in IL

I just got home and it looks pretty ominous where I'm at. So I'll probably make a drink and sit by the window to watch.

Interesting update by NWS SPC. They have moved the Enhanced and Moderate sections westward.

Wonder if there will be any individual cells that form out in front of the cold front later on.

Environment is ripe up here in NWA. Cloud cover has kept things from firing off so far.

Not too surprised by that, have been watching things from a DFW perspective this evening and noticed that the cap was coming in weaker than expected. The atmosphere is ripe for svr wx anywhere that storms can fire.

The enhanced risk area for Alabama was trimmed some for tomorrow, keeping it further north in to Tennessee and beyond.

Another one in IL. A nighttime tornado would be scary!

ETA: reports of numerous cars being thrown from interstate with this tornado

Tornadoes terrify me more than any other natural disaster. I'm very glad I live where they are very,very rare.

Closest I've seen to a tornado was a small dust devil out in the desert.

Perryville, MO has reports of cars thrown off the roads and fatalities.

That same storm just nailed Vergennes, IL. It's been a large, violent, long track tornado.

Velocities have been insane on it.

Ugh...



Tornado is still on the ground with radar indications of debris being lifted to 16,000+ ft

Storm spotter said it was .25 to .5 mile wide.

Feel terrible for those people.

Night time tornadoes are the worst.
