5/5-5-6 2026 severe threat

[TH2002]

Check this out. Debris signature is clear as day on KMOB, despite being much further from the storm than KDGX. No doubt, this could be a violent tornado.

SPC is going to expand the ENH almost all the way to the AL/GA line in the 01z update

Looks like a mobile home park just got hit. Awful. It was right on the debris ball

Where specifically? I see scattered residences but not a mobile home park

That CC is only accompanied with violent tornadoes. Monticello needs to be underground.

 

[TH2002]

I feel terrible for both the residents and first responders in Franklin County (Garden City). They still can't get to reports of entrapments because the situation with trees on the road is so bad.

Debris fallout still ongoing 17k feet up and 50 miles away from the area of rotation. Unbelievable...

By the time the site loads for me to post something, it has already been posted so may just be in read only mode tonight as slow as this is

Same, I don’t want to keep it repetitive. Either the site owners just don’t care, or there’s one person that can actually do the technical fixes and is just too busy to do it. Which further calls into question why only one person can fix it.

Vince Waelti's stream shows that he pulled out a chainsaw in an effort to clear a downed tree off the road.

I'm thankful that things seem to be fairly calm in Central AL because the radar coverage is very poor right now with KBMX down.

Wes explained the situation here...

Make of his claims what you will, but at least he said something. I feel that if this site's owners truly didn't care, they would just ignore or even deny the repeated complaints of slow loading/malfunctioning attachments/unexplained outages.

 

[buckeye05]

I’m starting a thread on loss of site functionality when this is over. This is ridiculous and site leadership is missing in action.

chaser adam lucio is in serious danger east of brookhaven MS

 

[Maxis_s]

I genuinely think we have twins. Two distinct tight couplets have been visible on both radars for a while now.

There's already an active thread for site issues, linked above in my response to @ColdFront

 

[buckeye05]

Never mind, I see there’s been a response. My bad.

 

[KakashiHatake2000]

 

[Brice W]

There’s twins. Two CC drops are evident.

There's been a Tornado Emergency for several minutes for Monticello, a town of 1,400 people.
