From that big debris ball, Indiana.

going to be a controversial video (check comments) , however this tornado can be seen hitting a home and bringing all its walls down

I know many people are not EMS certified and should not attempt to render aid because they may make things worse, but even without being EMS certified, you should check for anybody, and then let EMS know of your location so they can properly render aid as quickly as possible. You can even drive them to the hospital if they aren't trapped and it's reasonable to do so, like Pecos Hank and I believe Freddy McKinney have done before.

There’s going to be a prolific tornado outbreak in the southeast because of Arthur as well.

Going to be a long day, y’all be careful

Oh Brad and his hyperbole, this was no wedge tornado lol, but great video!

I think chasers, and even some Mets on TV, kind of default to saying it when a a significant tornado is occuring. Even James Spann has had a tendency to say this in the past with narrow tornadoes. Lol.

At the very least you can stay there until properly trained medics have arrived. I'll never understand how people can just drive away from something like that with no regard to the people that were just impacted. Just really crappy humans if you ask me.

Tornado warning in New York of all places. Not seeing a CC drop.

That’s significant. Fairly intense rowing visible there.

Wouldn’t surprise me to see quite a few EF2s and EF3s come out of yesterday.

Wouldn't be surprised to see an EF4 considering some of the radar signatures.

Speaking of, has anyone seen anything from the insane radar presentation by Martinsville?

 

[Maxis_s]

I just realized that I'm right next to a 5% tornado risk and I'm graduating today. Worst timing possible man

Some pretty extreme tree damage!

Pic 3 is particularly incredible to me. That is some serious tree damage. Also a clear erratic multivortex structure.

 

[Ozonelayer]

Saw drone footage from Effingham IL showing a home reduced to a pile of rubble, so we have atleast 2 EF-3+ tornadoes (Effingham and Martinsville)

Clear EF3 damage. Wonder what other areas of the path look like.

tornado warning in upstate new york south of syracuse, looks like a pretty healthy little spinup within the line
