Tea through the nose. I was wondering the same thing.

That streaming ARK is unreal. I'm glued to it right now. That line of storms is headed our way. Is our atmosphere in any way going to stabilize that line or should I go ahead and plan to put on my helmet?

i think there is a target on towns named clinton.......MS, AL, NC..and i heard AR and one other clinton in another state i cant recall at the moment.

Clinton, AR was devastated on Super Tuesday actually...

Anyway, looks like a major wind threat pushing towards Memphis. It's going to be crazy if we see another outbreak tomorrow...

Think this was mentioned earlier, but report from Vilonia police department.
From Bart Comstock on Twitter:
BREAKING: Unconfirmed reports: Vilonia PD reports "town is gone," pavement has been scoured outside of town.

i will likely weaken as it reaches Alabama you really need
to be concerned into wensday as conditions for tornadoes will
be very high charts possibly....possibly more than than one round...too

I believe that is the wall cloud from the storm that went very near the NWS office north of Little Rock. Not the Vilonia storm because you would see a completely different view I would think.
