May 28, 20196 yr Wow. Looks like Syria. Is there a body count for Dayton? Looks devastating Amazingly, and thankfully, I haven’t seen any reports of fatalities. There haven’t even been any reports of “critical” injuries.
May 28, 20196 yr I'm praying for the people in Dayton. Not only for the tornado, but also because . . . well, they live in Dayton.
May 28, 20196 yr Our weather (briefly!) - Rain coming back into the forecast, a little maybe tomorrow, better chance of a good dump or two on Thurs and especially Friday. - Then summer parks its ass over us for a few days - temps in the mid 90's this weekend. - But at least these highs are just a bit above average and consistent; no spiking (yet) into 100's. Anyway avg. temp this week is about 90° so it's not like the temps are running away). More later.(tornado outbreak of the last 2 weeks will finally end the current run this week but maybe not until midweek. More later maybe). Edited May 28, 20196 yr by phdhorn
May 28, 20196 yr 8 hours ago, atomheartbevo said: Unfortunately that's maybe half of the paths for those 2 tornadoes. 5+ million without power, that one storm system last night knocked out electricity for almost 2% of the country. That's more than Hurricane Ike caused. 51 tornado reports yesterday. 12 hours later and they are still searching homes in the Dayton area. Many locations they still can't get into because of the powerlines down everywhere. Boil water notice for most of the county (if you actually still have water), both water plants damaged or down due to power. So far 1 dead, 35 injured, but the big story is the scale of the damage.

May 28, 20196 yr Those are not the beavers I was hoping for. Anyone seen any reports about damage to Wright Patt? That first tornado went right over where the AF Museum is. It would be a catastrophic loss if any of those planes were damaged.

May 28, 20196 yr Tornado emergency for Lawrence, Kansas right now and this thing is tracking straight for Kansas City.
May 28, 20196 yr KMBC stormspotters saying it is a mile wide tornado currently going into Linwood, Kansas.
May 28, 20196 yr https://www.kmbc.com/article/concern-grows-for-tuesday-storms-area-placed-in-enhanced-risk/27599646 KMBC has a helicopter up tracking this.
May 28, 20196 yr Oh fuck, this thing is a monster going through Linwood, Kansas right now headed toward Bonner Springs, which is a suburb on the west side of K.C. This thing is huge. Now saying debris is coming down in Tonganoxie which is several miles from where this tornado is tracking.
May 28, 20196 yr It feels like the universe has been trying to kill off the central third of the US for the past couple years.
May 29, 20196 yr Oh boy, it's coming right at the Speedway. There is a big outdoor mall, a casino and the stadium that Sporting KC plays in right next door in that area as well. Edited May 29, 20196 yr by EMAWesome
May 29, 20196 yr Weather channel just showed another wall cloud live in El Reno. Good Lord. Why would anyone live near that place. Always getting hit
May 29, 20196 yr What the hell? Tornado warnings in New Jersey now.They probably don’t even have sirens

May 29, 20196 yr Same parent storm has dropped another nasty looking tornado is about a minute away from hitting Excelsior Springs, Mo.

May 29, 20196 yr So when a tornado is that frikin big hopefully the winds aren’t as powerful or am I I just thinking that to feel better? From those pictures it doesn’t seem like it is the case.
May 29, 20196 yr It just depends on the tornado. Sometimes the size of the tornado is not proportionate to the speed of its winds, sometimes it is. This seems to be an is one.

May 29, 20196 yr That was at least an F3 that hit Linwood, damage is horrific. Saw some complete home/slab separation in a live view vids. Had a helluva storm spin up right over the top of us that headed up the turnpike, damn impressive, but it crapped out thankfully before it did anything.
May 29, 20196 yr only if the windspeed correlates. when slabs are wiped clean and are all you see, that's an F5 almost all the time Edited May 29, 20196 yr by mulletpelini

May 29, 20196 yr This Coby Duffin kid on TWC is a badass. Just shrugs off the tornado, no big deal, saved my dragon found my dogs, got my cat.
