I picked this Storm out when It was still in Mississippi, everything about it looked like it was going to Hit Memphis!

Amazing Link Nick!

CNN broke into their election coverage to give warnings about the two major storms, Memphis and Clinton AR. Seems that the Memphis storm is cutting across south to east Memphis. The other storm sounds like it may be F4 from eyewitness accounts.

185kt gate to gate shear now on the Cell which went through Clinton, AR :lol:

Lots of cells firing in the dry slot between the two lone of current storms. They are acquiring hook echos very quick and one is already T-warned. Another should be warned very soon.

The Tornado that went through Memphis is still raging way to the North East now and heading towards Kentucky.

Unfortunately 3 Deaths have been reported with the Tornado that hit Atkins (Arkansas) and Emergency Management are stating people are injured and trapped in parts of Memphis!

Also Emergency Personnel needed in Oxford (Ms) which took a Direct Hit!

These storms are only just about to Hit Kentucky and it will be Darkness when they do.

High Risks are Horrible esp at Night and in the Winter Months.

Only about 80 days until we go now and this will hold us in good stead!

Me and Nick are in Serious Training!

**Nick that Supercell is Travelling at 80mph! And with a Strong and destructive Tornado on the Ground, The NOAA Radio is saying this is a life threatening Situation!

Various TV station sites are very slow to load, what I was able to gather so far, major damage reported in Clinton AR, the three deaths were in Atkins AR earlier on, possibly there has been a major tornado disaster here but no hard news -- CNN continuing to blather on about the possible next president -- heading back to cyberspace to see what I can find out.

Reports of a major roof collapse on a shopping mall at Hickory Ridge - with people still inside in the Memphis area :lol:

Also 8'' concrete walls on warehouse managed to collapse earlier during tornado damage - must have been some strong vortex.

Apparently the worst tornado damage in Shelby County that has been witnessed...

Warnings coming through every minute now from the Memphis (Tn) Weather Radio, last 2 were from North West (Tn) and now the North West MS Moving into SW (Tn) again, also warnings coming through for the Arkansas Supercells. All of these warnings are Tornado Warnings and NOT Severe Thunderstorm Warnings.

Already 12 Reported Tornadoes, I still expect between 20-50 Tornadoes!
