A lot of these super rural tiny plains towns without industry struggle to have a reason to come back if they get wiped; see Manchester, SD, for example

New meso might be forming to the southeast of the supercell where the new hook is forming.

Maybe not Hutchinson, but I’m getting increasingly worried for Willowbrook.
Not a lot of time to regroup either. Monday's shot is coming up next for the same location/locations

According to scanners, it seems like people from the town took shelter in the basement of church.

If radar existed back in the 1950s, I'd imagine this might be what the Udall, KS tornado looked like

Seems to be moving northward of Hutchinson. Hopefully this thing doesn't drop another one.

So far no sign of recycling (thank God) in the last few scans.

Almost looks like the supercell is going to shear apart

That would be amazing if these people all sheltered properly because that likely saved a ton of lives

It’s struggling on radar, but chasers are reporting it is visibly cycling.
Also, it sounds like the damage in Plevna is awful.

I’ve seen photo’s. Nothing to extreme so far. But several house’s are destroyed

That might be where I call it for the night. This is a time and night where we look back a decade later and remember where we were.

Doesn’t look to bad, wondering if the tornado actually did miss town, and simply side swiped it due to its immense size.
