Severe WX March 30th- April 1st 2023 (South, Southeast, Ohio Valley, Upper Midwest)

These three supercells in North Mississippi are very up and down. All have broad low-level mesocyclones. Now, the new TOR has tightened up significantly. I imagine these three will continue this trend into North Alabama.
 
TDS on MS storm...

So I figured out what happened...I actually caught the cycle on video. When I first got on the storm, set up and started rolling, there was a wedge ongoing. It was shrouded in dust and somewhat low-contrast. It's in these two pictures from my phone.

Those wispy white cloud tendrils toward the near upper left quickly coalesced into a small but tight area of rotation, touching down as a rapidly rotating, dusty debris cloud just behind that treeline, quickly morphing into a Henryville-esque drillbit and then a 4/27-esque (Cordova, Cullman in its later stages, and several others I think) stubby wedge under that dramatically sculpted, ultra-low-LCL tornado cyclone.

Hoping that the TN long-tracker is no longer in progress. Jumbled mess of precip on reflectivity, not much on CC, and a more disorganized look on velocity at the moment. Of course, as soon as that happens, we have a new tornado in NE Mississippi.
