Why does NWS Paducah make tornado emergencies so small? I'm not even complaining since they're issuing it, just confused.
Anyways, this thing is violent.

Never ever wanna see a dropout and a debris ball in the same spot. Violent tornado.

That cell is angled in such a way now that it can parallel that blob to its north and not merge with it for quite a long time

 

[TornadoFan]

Talk about a bad case of deja vu. :/

It’s sickening watching that thing making a beeline for Dawson Springs.

This is bringing back so many nightmares from December 10, 2021. I was just rewatching the coverage last week.

 

[Brice W]

I’m worried about Earlington.

[Maxis_s]

Debris up to 37kft, oh my GOD.

Debris being lofted to 37k feet.

 

[NorthBamaWX]

OMG Pray for those people

 

[Brice W]

This is exactly what the mayfield tornado looked like at some point. Good God.

 

[slenker]

Looks exactly like the tri-state monster before the mayfield tornado too.
