Narrow tornado, windrowing indicates it wasn't just poor construction.

That doesn’t look like windrowing, it seems that the tornado simply blew the house down and just heaped the debris some distance rather than actually churn up the debris into mulch and strewn it around its circulation. It helps tremendously that the house is a suspended foundation on a hill as well.
And that tree damage in the third photo doesn’t look any stronger than low end ef2 at best.
Sure, narrow tornadoes have far less time to do their damage, but obviously that hasn’t stopped actual violent ones before.

Yesterday’s tornado is also the first significant tornado to cross the Mississippi between Iowa and Wisconsin since an F3 did so on May 30, 1985.

So it's not my imagination. It's literally the first time it's happened in my life. As a lifelong resident of Wisconsin, I've always felt like the MS River (and the IL/WI line) act like brick walls for tornadic storms.

Some healthy couplets going on north and east of Columbus, GA right now.

Edit: cell east of Columbus is now warned.

And yet, sirens were NOT sounded here.

One of my friends is investigating.

I swear that area is Georgia's mini tornado alley. I'm about 100 miles downstream in the direction those are headed.

From Newnan down to basically Eufala has something about it that tornadoes like, that's for sure.

Here comes another one.

Edit: Now TOR-warned.

Looks like the worst of it will stay south of the metro tonight. That Columbus to Macon line seems to always attract tornadoes.

Circulation went right over me in Columbus, GA. Tree fell on my roof. Happened to be filming (like a nerd) when it happened.
