Met on KFVS just said Wednesday's Cape Girardeau tornado missed his own house by 2,000 feet.
That reminded me of how WVUA met Richard Scott's house was wrecked by the 4/27/2011 Tuscaloosa tornado, and how James Spann's home barely dodged getting hit by a tornado on 3/25/2021!Met on KFVS just said Wednesday's Cape Girardeau tornado missed his own house by 2,000 feet.
There was definitely a tornado but it was very easy to miss! In fact, the guy filming it didn't even see it. Lol. Northern Arkansas is TOUGH chase countryI was watching the stream but I definitely didn’t see a tornado. Not sure if I missed or if Reed is just going by radar imagery and is assuming there’s one down.

Looked like possible CC spike near Gordonville but I wasn't 100% confident on thatTrained spotter reported a tornado down moving into Cape Girardeau.
