Third tornado north of the other two over Soldier, IA. This is the same storm that struck Bennington.

I think it's time to re-think the SPC risk system. It's clearly broken.

Something needs to take forecast confidence into effect. So we don't end up with "conditional" Enhanced risks with multiple tornado emergencies.

Something like High Risk / Low Confidence or Moderate Risk / High Confidence. A dual rating system that captures both the potential ceiling of the event and confidence that it will occur.
It certainly doesn't help when social media screams Forecasted Convective Amplification Deficiency when Moderate days don't lay down 50 EF4's
