Severe WX December 10 & 11, 2021 Severe Threat

TWC is showing a tv show when there's an EF4+ tornado occuring? What.
My wife asked where the coverage went on the weather channel. she just got in from working at a retirement/rehab place and wanted to hear about the Manette Manor. I've been telling her about the storm all evening at work and she wanted to see coverage. I told her the is an example of the TWC also known as the C_OPN - Commercial/Original Programming Network

She even realizes the historic significance of this tornado and wants to know WT_ is going on?
 
Maybe some of this junk convection around it will cut off the inflow.

Hopefully so, it's the first time it has really had to deal with any. First time in a couple hours the velocity looks even slightly messy. Might just be cycling again though.

Yeah I'm worried it'll just cycle and put down another one. Might be wishful thinking to say this will actually kill it off, unfortunately.
 
It looked like it cycled while it was in Tennessee and then reformed in Kentucky, but we'll have to wait for the surveys to be sure. Either way, an absolutely incredible storm. Producing a violent tornado almost non-stop for >3 hours...



Tri-state might be going down. The EF-5 streak might be danger as well.

Remember the Tuscaloosa-Birmingham tornado 27 April 2011 was believed solid for 200+ miles. But it lifted very briefly in Tarrant then touched back down in Center Point. It just so happens my dad & aunts live(d) within that very narrow window when the tornado lifted. Had that storm not cycled they might not be here.
 
Looking at tomorrow, I think the low level shear is going to increase enough to cause some issues with a qlcs or some discrete cells in north/central Alabama.
HRRR [03Z run] drags some UH streaks across MS, AL and GA from morning SAT into the afternoon.

TDS isn't as prominent but it's still there, and the couplet remains strong.

Unfortunately doesn't look like it stayed messy for long. Wrapped back up nicely from Fort Campbell, and has a really good presentation from Evansville, and the TDS is stronger now from Evansville.
 
The TDS has re-intensified.
 
Can't believe it is still this intense after this long, so far east, without many hiccups. Historic event.
