I think they’ll find evidence of two small spin-ups in Shelby County, AL tomorrow. One west of Pelham on the 11:36-11:40 scans, and one east of Pelham right near state Highway 11 on the 11:46-11:48 scans

Agreed, they were there briefly but they were definitely there.

Tornadoes in Texas and Mississippi kill 2 and injure 6 as severe weather system moves east

A strong storm system is threatening to whip up tornadoes in parts of the U.S. Southeast, a day after severe weather claimed at least two lives as twisters touched down in Texas and Mississippi.

I guess BMX is content to miss the small spin-ups and not warn on them. It’s a tough spot because by the time you get a warning out it may already be over, but it’s interesting to watch.

When there were lots and lots of spinups, Jackson issuing blanket warnings was a sound strategy to me, but between BMX's overall discipline with warnings and the current pace of activity, I think it makes sense.
