Yeah, no kidding. They had just got confirmation of major damage and trapped people in Jeff City, several tor warns still ongoing, and once they hit midnight central it was basically a quick T&P's and See Ya.
I-40 and US 64 bridges are shut down, in case the runaway barges get past the dam and locks, or if they do enough damage to the dam/locks. Towns below evacuated. Channel 6 in Tulsa has a camera at the locks, could hit any minute.
I hate to say it, but for actual storm coverage this Accuweather TV channel sux. At a minimum they need a Dr. Forbes. As cheesy and infuriating as The Weather Channel can often be, their storm reporting can be pretty good.
I don't care for the tenor of these cells. It's like a vacuum cleaner, the first pass through town, the next runs parallel just to the north, then just to the south.
I see he ran around a long line of cars patiently waiting, pulled over to film, and then jumped in front of the line to get through the one cleared lane.
Just another reason why stormchasers have a poor reputation with a lot of the public.
So what is the reasoning for why the tornado watch box issued doesn't include this 'Particularly Dangerous Situation' tornado and the county it will move into?
Some tornado warnings in the Houston area. I can confirm that one of my properties that was in the middle of a tor warn box did lose power and had a fence blown over by straight line type winds. No trains were heard.
