From Frazdaddy he can give better details to the where....

The first name storm has happened in April or May in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 so we have a 4 year streak of a named storm before the official start date of the season to keep alive.

It sucks that 59 and a breeze is cold to me already......it will be 90 every day before we know it.

Tornado damage reported in Swan Quarter....question is whether it was a waterspout or true tornado....what say you?

Yeah this video is either very early or late in its cycle cause that was no EF3 in the video.....looks like RAH NWS has confirmed at least 6 tornados now in their CWA...

Now 35 tornado reports....500+ wind reports.....

When it isnt moving left or right you in trouble.....

Yeah no bust for NC, there was plenty of wind damage reports and they are still coming in, add to that a dozen or so at least tornados....I saw at least 6-7 TDS's confirmed tornados....pictures like this popping up all over the web.....this is Willow Springs NC luckily no one was in that room....

Yeah there for a couple of frames.....I work with a guy who lives there....

Wondering what that segment of the line down in SE NC is going to do as it is the one to most likely impact MBY....the couplet north of Rocky Mount looks pretty tight.

yeah it spun up quick....from the time I noticed the rotation starting to me being able to post it went from nothing to warned and OTG...

Rotation trying to form just south of Smithfield......and its warned and maybe seeing a TDS trying to pop up...

Bozart who post here from time to time caught this on the eastern NC cell this was in Wilson Co...
