Yesterday just goes to show that the SPC really is the best in the business. That supercell tracked right through the small moderate risk and I imagine verified that 15% TOR risk too. Great forecast from them

Thats from Lake Village.
Also correct me if I'm wrong, but that appears to be a CMU house foundation...but missing the house. And that tree in the center looks like it sustained some fairly notable debarking.

I’m really concerned about the rural communities that may have potentially taken a direct hit from the Knox, IN tornado as it was at peak intensity. That radar signature was quite possibly the worst of the night.
Im right on the edge of the 5%. Haven't had a tornado around where I live since 2021

Was that the 5-10 minute stretch that the CC drop was enormous and indicated black pixels? The area just west and running northwest in relation to Knox is a section of large farm fields and a small river. Maybe and hopefully just intense tree damage and lofting. There is a small airport.

I mean it started near Wheatland and possibly hit the town of Wheatland, and it tracked right over several rural homes and small communities before hitting the airport. Just hoping that it missed them all.

There were some rural communities that the tornado seemed to have directly went over. Really hoping it’s not the case though.
It looks like there may be a new record for the largest hailstone in Illinois:
That storm was a real beast to produce not only several large tornadoes, but also some of the largest hail ever recorded east of the Mississippi River!

Are there any drone flyovers of the Kankakee/Lake Village/Knox area? That's usually where the first light damage photos are from.

I didn't respond to this due to the situation in Knox but all of this is simply clutter. The dogleg hook this displayed displayed that even further. Thankfully nothing major materialised in Oklahoma.

In fairness, we had two maxi wedges, the first violent tor it put down and this. That is a absolute chonker.

We’re gonna have some pretty gnarly damage images come out this morning.

Supposedly, this is the house that was swept away near the Kankakee area. Take this with some salt as I found it on a twitter post but if so, thats very impressive.

Dang. Obviously can’t tell much from maps, but that looks like quite a large house.
