ITS HITTING MONETTE

The tornado is weakening a bit on velocity, but it may just be cycling.

It's not weakening, live on Brandon Copic's stream. Still going very strong.

pds il/mo

That's exactly what I thought. That was the craziest horizontal vortices i've seen since then. Now it looks like Bridge Creek.

Yeah, doesn't seem great as the storm continues to track northwestward into Monette

It's not weakening, live on Brandon Copic's stream. Still going very strong.

On the velocity couplet it is. Still down but not as insane velocity wise as it was.

 

[AJS]

I am legitimately not saying this to overhype or hyperbolize, but this tornado is taking a very similar track to the 2021 Tri State EF4.

 

[SmokeEater]

It may have JUST missed Monette.

 

[tornado examiner]

It’s doing major damage as a solid violent stovepipe.

 

[Clancy]

Debris lofted to 24,000 to 25,000 feet, putting it likely in violent territory.

 

[DanLarsen34]

Violent wedge causing damage in Monette live on Brandon Copic’s stream

 

[SmokeEater]

On the velocity couplet it is. Still down but not as insane velocity wise as it was.

I got ya man, just saying.

 

[Mrklem10]

Copic has some major stones man

 

[AJS]

It may have JUST missed Monette.

Most likely missed the downtown, but it looked to have clipped the NW side.

 

[Clancy]

Cape Girardeau is in danger. 40,000 people in the city.

 

[Kds86z]

I’m watch more Moore… 1999

 

[SmokeEater]

Copic has some major stones man

He always does, not a great human being, but a crazy good chaser.

 

[ColdFront]

This is absolutely insane. The proximity to that line and temps dropping just absolutely set the warm sector on fire

 

[cincywx]

KFVS had the Cape Girardeau tornado on a MODOT cam

 

[Clancy]

KAIT met: "I have reports from reliable sources that we have houses that have been leveled."
