Yes, each of these articles I've posted are from local news in the various regions I saw that were affected last night. So it looks like there were fatalities in multiple states last night. Now that it's light, I'm sure we'll see some pretty horrific images.

At this rate, this tornado outbreak looks like it will the deadliest of the year so far.

Just makes it all the more infuriating when people, even me, had the gall to call this a bust when the event was slow to start.

Thankfully the Mayfield storm weakened on the next scan. Awful night, I went to bed thinking the worst was over. Still concerned about any new reports we may hear from Arkansas. Many CC drops during the night in several communities.

Yep. Fatality numbers going to climb in Texas probably sheriff said. We got today to get through also. Was hard to sleep..

It looks like a bomb went off here in northwest Arkansas. The amount of tree damage is hard to comprehend.

The inflow wind strength was other worldly. Lots of power outages and it went over several recreational areas around Beaver lake that really worry me.

Bently did a superb job yesterday.

I went to bed knowing there'd probably be storms after 10 o'clock, but wow it over performed and had a lot of destruction and deaths, unfortunately. Hope today is less menacing.

Tornado watch out for most of central KY, as well as parts of southern IN and northern TN... 60/40 probs
