Idk if anyone posted this but we have another possible violent candidate here. Maybe not but I was wondering about this one. Definitely another EF3 tho.

Pretty sure that was the tornado in MS that had a tornado emergency.

Haven’t heard much out of Ms. Injuries but no fatalities thankfully. Definitely curious on surveys..

I’m not gonna say anything on construction of those homes cause I have nothin…

I wonder how much more nws Memphis has been able to survey today.

Negative. This damage was a result of the first tornado from the same storm. This damage was southwest of Coldwater.

Slayden and senatobia tornadoes are also both EF3 now.

Oh okay, haven’t heard anyone talk about this yet.

Apologies as information has been conflicting but think it’s 5-6 dead. 4 at selmer and then the other grand junction one with 2 fatalities.

Safe to say that April 2 was the biggest day of this outbreak sequence so far.
An upper echelon tornado in Arkansas plus several others that were very impressive.
So far 5 EF3’s confirmed but a couple may be upgraded.
High risk verification in general.

Wasn't sure where this belongs, but there was an outbreak of tornadoes in Turkey and Greece during the same timeframe as this outbreak. Seven tornadoes confirmed including one rated IF2.

Hate to bring up a painful question, but any news on surveys from NWS Louisville? I was expecting a delay, but I am beginning to get a bit concerned.

Edit: Never mind. They plan on getting to it by the end of the weekend. Gonna be a lot of cleanup by that point though.

There weren’t any real powerful tornadoes in their CWA from this outbreak though right? Mainly just a few weak ones?

This is a case where I'm honestly wondering if we won't get a violent rating because of all of the flooding and ongoing severe storms preventing surveys until clean-up has taken place. So far 4 EF3+ in MEG's CWA, but all surveys have been suspended because of it until the end of the weekend.

I think that MEG is going to take that into account when they finally have a chance to fully survey the areas of worst damage. I could be wrong, but that’s what I’m hoping for.

Lol what.

Off topic to a point, but Selmer, Tennessee is the hometown of Sheriff Buford T Pusser, of Walking Tall fame, a real life hero

This is cursed.

This is cursed.

Is that Monette Manor?
