Severe WX Severe Weather Threat 3/14-3/16

[AJS]

The 165 mph EF3 rating for the tornado in Cave City looked correct to me. There could be more though.

Do you have any pictures?

 

[Grand Poo Bah]

I kid you not, according to the EF scale, that's only EF2. Unless it was anchored to that foundation.

I'm waiting for a update on the Gordo Alabama tornado

Masonry foundation, hollow cinder blocks with no anchoring to be seen.

The home itself was stronger than its own foundation.

Yes, because it's a slider. Not everything is controversial.

 

[eep]

Crazy damage from yet another one of the 4 billion Arkansas tornadoes from friday.

They need to abolish cinder block foundations across America and make bolted concrete slabs mandatory.

Ok, that looks high end.

I believe this was actually the earlier part of the Diaz tornado unless it’s a cycle thing.

Wasn't saying it was controversial! Though, I suppose I can see how it was interpreted that way.

Based on the map, I think it was a seperate tornado

It’s becoming abundantly clear to me that these tornadoes on Friday night were extremely violent. Not surprised considering the fact that the cells were moving straight into an STP > 10 environment for a very considerable time period.

I just checked a radar loop, it wasn’t a separate tornado.

Props to @UK_EF4 . He said the V word.. SPC said intense and strong but never violent for Friday

Oh I was confusing it for a different storm. That is my apologies.

In that case. I wonder if this area has been surveyed that. That looks like some pretty high end tree damage in the background with a destroyed home.

It’s that United Kingdom magic. We can sniff those storms out like it’s nothing.

Honestly Friday was one of the highest end tornado outbreaks seen in a long time. When surveys come out I think that fact will become very clear. Wouldn't be surprised if it ends up higher end than Easter Sunday.

Oh you from Uk too?

Agreed. As a whole, this outbreak was definitely one for the books.

Imagine if Winchester had gotten an EF4 rating. We’d be on a 6 year streak of March EF4’s if it had.
