Per radio traffic.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Also spotter-reported tornadoes along the Red north of Paris, TX. No radar can see jack with those.

Tornado emergency for Jasper... scary situation incoming

 

[southmdwatcher]

Tornado Emergency, it looked like it was a bit weaker.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Beat me to it, @Equus !

IMO CC and velocity are a little murky. Reflectivity is very classic and has remained so for a long time.

 

[Equus]

Currently no CC drop apparent and not a g2g on velocity but if it's not down it looks like it could drop a monster at any second

Brandon Clement now live from Jasper Tx. (live storm chasing)

Road signs flying in the air and he pans to show a person walking down the street in the mess.

Looks like power just went out in Jasper.

 

[Jetstream]

Unbelievable, what a hook and debris ball with this

That did not produce a tornado in Jasper, thankfully. Too much precip in the hook.

Uh oh.

Yeah, looks like Jasper dodged a bullet as it has wrapped up again.

 

[TornadoFan]

Now it's getting its act together.

 

[jules]

Look at that fishhook!

BIG tds east of Jasper. Looks like it's heading into a fairly unpopulated area. I hope.

Has to be a violent monster now.
