Severe WX December 10 & 11, 2021 Severe Threat

[Taylor Campbell]

Amagon, AR may soon get a direct hit from a tornado and no warning that a confirmed tornado is headed their way.

 

[TH2002]

New TOR on the MO cell E of Niangua

 

[warneagle]

There was a report of a tornado on the ground and the warning doesn’t include the confirmed tornado wording.

Yeah, I noticed that too. Multiple spotters have reported it, not sure why it's not described as confirmed.

I also noticed that there's a place called Possum Grape, AR.

 

[warneagle]

The Arkansas cell ramped up on the latest scan, not good. BWER on reflectivity too.

 

[Austin Dawg]

I literally was just turning on my radar Pro after scanning the pages here I just found that cell when it intensified in the last five minutes. Fast

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Meanwhile radar has lit up like, well...a Christmas tree across MO with several tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings.

 

[warneagle]

Up to three warnings up in Missouri

 

[OHWX97]

Up to three warnings up in Missouri

Make that four...

 

[Taylor Campbell]

Amagon missed direct hit. Tornado remaining over very rural area.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

AR warning really should be extended NE to include Jonesboro with how fast that thing is moving.

 

[Taylor Campbell]

Amagon missed direct hit. Tornado remaining over very rural area.

But on a path towards Jonesboro.

 

[CheeselandSkies]

Probably most dramatic reflectivity BWER I've seen since the formative stages of the Cullman tornado of 2011.

 

[southmdwatcher]

Yikes that circulation continues to strengthen as it races northeastward.

 

[Taylor Campbell]

But on a path towards Jonesboro.

Less than 20 miles away.

 

[warneagle]

Warning extended to include Jonesboro. NWS still says radar indicated.

Spotter reporting one on the ground live on KAIT moments ago.
