Now there might be a 4th tornado trying to form.

Three tornadoes, sure! Why not just add 5 more just for the hell of it eh?

Yep. Seems like a fourth tornado is on the ground. What on earth...

It’s like we’re tracking a qcls

Bentonville area is a) location of Wal-Mart HQ, and b) very heavily populated along I-49.

Looks like... the one (two?) main tornado(es) have occluded, and the originally anticyclonic one is continuing, with multiple other areas of rotation developing.

Wow Decatur is literally surrounded.

Has this ever happened before with 3 maybe 4 tornadoes in one supercell?

A lot of NW Arkansas is very populated. But yes Bentonville, Rogers, even Decatur are some of the most populous areas of the state.

I literally can't tell how many tornadoes are on the ground with this one storm.

I've seen triplets once with the Dodge City cell. Not quadruplets or whatever the hell's going on here.

 

[jiharris0220]

Oof

The originally anticyclonic tornado now looks normal/cyclonic(maybe? I dunno) and is heading for the greater Bentonville area.

You can literally see 2 hooks that are wrapped in the storm.

 

[Maxis_s]

I wonder what the next warning text is gonna include.
"At 125 AM CDT, numerous confirmed tornadoes were located near Decatur, moving northeast at 30 mph."

 

[Clancy]

Centerton under the gun from this tornado now. Very residential area it's heading into.

 

[Maxis_s]

I need 2 hands to count how many areas of rotation this thing has
