Severe WX Severe Threat 17-18 March 2021

Went from severe anxiety to taking a quick nap, definitely could have been way worse in the warm sector. Hopefully round two outruns the LLJ and nothing big happens.
 
We definitely had numerous tornadoes with some strong so that part of the outlook has verified, just didn't have any well spaced long track tornadoes. Ironically it was the nighttime event that was originally a big deal and the daytime cells only a prelude but now it's possible the evening event was the big deal if the MS line outruns the LLJ. Which certainly looks possible.
 
With the sun really not coming out, I think this helped limit it less then what could of been. Still significant day but always could be worse. The squall line looks to come ahead of schedule, wonder if it will stay together, that would be awesome
 
At least EF3 with that, would have to really look into contextual factors to go much higher. Goes to show today certainly wasn't a Forecasted Convective Amplification Deficiency since we've had numerous highs in recent years that had nothing more than EF2s.

First picture looks like a swept away block foundation home. Depending on whether or not the home was anchored, this is probably EF3 or EF4 damage. Not sure about the empty foundation in the second picture.
 
New Tornado Warning out.
