I think it looks a little bit weaker currently.

I'm thinking the same, but I don't expect it to die any time soon unless a meso handoff occurs rapidly.

Excuse me... I don't think I've seen the hazard "deadly tornado" before

Excuse me... I don't think I've seen the hazard "deadly tornado" before

Happens with most tornado emergencies.

Excuse me... I don't think I've seen the hazard "deadly tornado" before

We have many times. It’s nothing new

 

[Maxis_s]

It's occluding north into Earlington!

 

[Keldeo]

Earlington about to take a direct hit

 

[TH2002]

It's doing exactly what the Greenfield tornado did. Occlusion causing it to move into town at the last minute. Yikes.
