Judging by that signature that was one hell of a spout. Hope no marine traffic got in its path

Holy crap. Little blindsided by that, didn't even see damage pics until they put up the EF4 rating. Given radar presentation not extremely surprised but still WOW. Have we gotten to were violent ratings are possible again finally?

There was a home near the beginning of the path that was anchor bolted and partially swept away along with extensive tree damage near the site.

JAN has gone liberal again. We're back to pre-2014 ratings it seems. This is good news. Though to be fair, nothing really liberal about that rating. An anchor-bolted home was leveled and partially swept away. Any time that happens, an EF4 rating should always be applied, given contextual support of course.

We have now passed all of last year's violent tornado counts in mid April, and have the most violent tornadoes of any year since 2014. Again, in mid April. And unlike what one could say for some years pre-2000s, each of them absolutely deserved that rating.

That is definitely for sure.
