Quite rare that we get so much sunshine on a threat day. Has been out for a solid hour or so. Plenty of pockets of clearing in the South.

Cloudy with showers here now.

Tornado warning including Evansville

Good. Hopefully next time they don't wait until the storm is sitting over the town before they issue a warning. Now they should get ready to tag the one near Bloomington and Jasper.

Y'all wouldn't believe the people who have texted me and ask is the threat over for North MS and Alabama. I'm like it's supposed to be during the afternoon between 2pm to 8pm.

Our town posted a picture from 25 March that has completely wrong info. ‍/sigh

It took way too long for the Evansville cell to be warned.

Apparently Kentucky is under a state of emergency already.

It’s SVR warned now

It's Paducah for you. Same people who saw a debris ball on radar going into Mayfield, KY in 2020 and didn't feel like putting out a TOR Emergency until the cell was on their doorstep and was putting out tiny Tornado Warnings, giving out much less warning time for the cell through much of its devastation. Annoyed me how they handled that night for such an epic cell.

Its inexcusable.

All we can do is focus on reposting on social media and getting the message out. Let's stay positive here.

No s##t. People like to defend NWS by saying it's a tough job. Yes. It's a tough job, but this one was easy. We've been watching this cell for a long time.

Storms near Evansville beginning to rotate. 2:47PM

Someone encouraged lurkers to start making accounts earlier. Long time Lurker, First time caller here.

Hoping this system underperforms today. For the smaller 5% non SIG risk we now have in Pittsburgh, the local NWS is being very vocal about the instability. "Don't Relax!" and an animation of parameters going into tonight are front and center recent posts on their page.

 

[MMWX]

Evansville warning needs to be expanded further south.

Evansville warning needs to be expanded further south.

Looks like they dropped it entirely instead...

Way too late to issue the warning, and way too quick to cancel it. It expired in only 10 minutes anyways. If they are confident its no longer on the ground, just let it expire. Don't cancel it.
