Chaser Don Murray @meteodon about to be in a good position for a look-see.

Yeah, nothing much has tapped the environment from Memphis to Chattenooga down into Middle MS/AL

Looks like this area is the sweet spot of adequate low-level shear and a reasonably discrete storm mode.

 

[Maxis_s]

It is NOT taking its time...

 

[TH2002]

Possibly a new TDS already?

 

[Clancy]

New warning issued, TORR.

Possibly a new TDS already?

I think that’s still fallout from the first one?

Never mind, on the ground.

 

[keithGA]

Dropping the TOR-E now.

 

[Maxis_s]

About to drop another big tornado.

 

[Clancy]

New couplet means business.

 

[keithGA]

70 mph inflow

 

[warneagle]

Inflow is absolutely cranking

 

[andyhb]

Still broad.

 

[Clancy]

True cyclonic appearance on velocity. Goodness gracious.

 

[Clancy]

In addition to tornadoes, winds and hail, flash flooding threat is substantial.

[Maxis_s]

I don't like how much time it's taking...

 

[Clancy]

Looks to have broadened at the latest scan, fingers crossed it stays that way?

 

[TornadoFan]

Inflow notch looks a bit obstructed now.

Refill your headlights, they're low.

Looks like it went outflow dominant when that merger happened on the rear flank, probably dropped too much precip into the RFD and disrupted the balance between outflow and inflow thermodynamics.
