Severe WX Severe Weather Threat - June 23rd-27th, 2023

A random isolated kidney bean decided to fire up east of Evansville

edit: The bean has evolved into a cluster of blobs, though admittedly still curious to see if it does anything

What a strange day this has been. A high ceiling with a rather violent start consisting of a tornado in the Indianapolis area and a march of supercells across the state, only for things to completely nosedive afterwards. But at this point, I wouldn't be shocked if we get one final surprise rogue storm to spin up a brief but strong tornado somewhere in North Mississippi - you know, 'cuz June 2023...
If there is one, it'll be close to me. Apparently, 2023 has been my year for close calls with 3 tornadoes occurring less than 10 miles from my house.
 
Does anyone know how strong the Cape values were over Georgia? The echo tops were somewhat unusually low (over my area) for a severe wx producing MCS.
 
Georgia looked serious there for awhile, and some of it escaped to me and cooled the sweltering day down :)
 
Greenwood IN tornado also may have been fatal per a met from NWS Indianapolis.

Based on video I've seen of that, it was rather brief but its peak intensity unfortunately appeared to coincide with its passage over a residential area (apartment complex, or several?). There was a dramatic acceleration of the rotation and tremendous burst of debris. Looked like Pampa, or Andover '22 for just a few seconds.

TOR Warn for Mashall County in MS. Off course, Memphis radar is down.

I know one of the places it hit was a neighborhood with large homes - that's where my friend lives. I hope the fatality wasn't one of his neighbors. :(
 
Fatality in Martin Co. IN near Shoals is confirmed from the tornado between Alfordsville and French Lick earlier.
 
And I don't want to get into this now, but that tornado in Martin County IN, despite having a very intense couplet from multiple radars, a large TDS, and a reflectivity debris ball evident for multiple scans, never had a confirmed tornado/TORR from NWS IND or LMK.

I suppose it should be sufficient that it was warned in the first place, but that is not a signature that should be without a confirmed warning. Frankly, it should've been a PDS warning.
