Wonderful pics, very very lucky it didn't hit anywhere big at peak strength

If we somehow outperform the OK event that would be something

That tornadic storm that moved into me I think only died because of crossing the front which is parked over the county, I was sweating bullets 

PDS TOR for me

How has IWX not put a TORR on this?

Making a right turn too 

That hook is headed right into the Kalamazoo area

Berrien County storm looks spicy

TOR for OKC

The OKC supercell turned into a line instead

There's also some new cells going up southwest of the line now

If we somehow outperform the OK event that would be something

Okeene cell with a strong circulation is about to go

Off to the races now with extra initiation happening 

From the new MD

 In addition, VWP data from KOUN and KVNX depict a notable increase
   in low-level flow over the last hour, with some modest backing of
   surface winds noted in recent Oklahoma Mesonet data. 0-1 km SRH of
   around 200 m2/s2 was noted in the 21Z OUN sounding, with values
   expected to increase above 300 m2/s2 into this evening. The
   combination of strengthening low-level shear and strong to extreme
   instability will support a rapid increase in potential for strong
   and possibly long-tracked tornadoes as storms spread
   east-northeastward this evening. 

Southern extent of the supercells looks a little less than expected rn maybe

Northern Indiana upgraded to enhanced for 10 sig tornado 

Looks to be a seasonal start to the month with frequent chances for rain and storms but with lotsa nice days too. 

That once cell in NE Indiana really tried to drop a tornado but got choked out by the rain around it

That enhanced was such a screw up, there's been more Tor Warnings in the marginal areas down south

The NWS says the severe risk is highly dependent on lingering rain and clouds through the day. I think this has a high bust potential.

Kinda like the last two days where they went too high and busted 

Skies look to be clearing from Kentucky into Central Ohio

Areas affected by Tornado Warnings between April 3rd and 4th 1974

Share any memories and stories you all have here

Mine is that I've heard from many locals, is that the EF-2 Tornado that hit Hillsdale sent the statue outside the Big Boy restaurant flying through the air and it landed over a half mile away on a house that wasn't even hit by the tornado.
