Lots of bad news to come but the good news is that SELA looks to be clear other than a few trailing cells that won't do anything.

Looks to be over. Miss and Alabama's turn.

I was in la place just before this thing hit and made my way to the brick oven on Williams waiting on a flight. My waitress sees these exact pics of la place damage on the news and it looks just like her house. She starts crying so I show her your pics to confirm. Kinda caused a scene. Her husband isn't answering her calls.

ETA: I'm telling the truth I can post a pic to confirm

A direct hit from a twister will destroy anything. But it takes a lot less to destroy a trailer.

Looking at all those mobile homes flipped over made me think of all the people of on that hgtv show tiny house hunters and glad my house in on a slab. Hate to see all these damages today and pray nobody is seriously hurt in all these storms today. Hope everybody be safe out there especially mississippi and Alabama since it's going that way now.

There's also a really tight rotation out in the Gulf generally moving toward Baldwin County. So Fort Morgan, Gulf Shores, Orange Beach have bad stuff coming.

My waitress just stopped by my table and told her I posted this. She just got off the phone with a friend. She asked him to check on her house and find her husband. Awaiting details.
