For anyone following the information Tim Marshall has been providing the past few days, a non-EF-5 rating should not come as a surprise.
Where can I read what Tim's been writing?

Jim says these exact words in the first 90 seconds of his presentation from that Superoutbreak that August at TEDxTalks Red Mountain. I knew it was Jim I just had to find the right video.
Thank you, Brian. This is what I remember hearing. I've been busy scouring WeatherBrains for the quote.

My first post. Howdy, y’all.
I've learned a lot about tornado damage surveys working on my book about the Joplin tornado and the first ten years of the recovery (the book, and the recovery, are still in progress),
If it is not rated an EF5, people will howl. Communities take pride in surviving a major tornado. It’s a badge of honor. The worse it’s rated, the tougher they feel. Google the reaction in La Plata, MD when its 2002 EF5 was, upon further review, downgraded to EF4. There are still people who lobby to have the 1953 Worcester F4 promoted to an F5.

One of the KOAM-TV mets (Joplin) said NWS chat says a storm near Vinita, SW of the Afton cell, is starting to ramp up.
Good night. If God wants to take me in the night, I'll be under the bed with the cats.

I humbly present a video frame as a tornado neared Golden City (I am competent with stills, but not at pulling them from video). This was from about six miles away. Anyone care to guess the size based on that?
The cats have gone to hide under the bed as another storm moves into Joplin. I think I'll join them. Wish us luck.

Tornado watch wording says "a couple intense tornadoes" possible here in SW MO or SE KS. It's bleeping 12:30 in the morning!
Anyone have an analog for this event?
