I've sort of disregared the pavement thing ever since the Americus tornado back in March 2007, same day as the Enterprise EF4. It was a strong EF3 and ripped pavement off, but the grass part may be more telling.

New footage from Cullman. Sirens can be heard in the background. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6U1asLiDYB0

that is wayyyy too large to be a vehicle. Likely a large section of roof or something of the sort. The closest video is the one I posted from University Mall and it was really too shaky to see if vehicles were flying, but guaranteed they were.

? The Tuscaloosa/B'ham cell is in Georgia.

the Tuscaloosa probable EF5 is this decade's Andover in terms of visibility and videos

I believe so, pretty ironic.

No kidding, he is lucky the periphery winds didn't flip his vehicle.

From Bamawx:

Unreal footage from University Mall in Tuscaloosa. 3:00 min in is where the action starts really cranking.

Did you bother to look over there first? http://www.americanwx.com/bb/index.php/topic/17385-next-severe-weather-event-april-26-29/page__st__960

in a strange way, that's slightly amusing

just started to post that. The sound is unreal, even more shocking are the horizontal vorticies just flying around the funnel.

almost exactly like a video clip from Moore in 1999 of a home on fire amid total destruction. I can say with 95% confidence, we've got our EF5.

uh, is BMX going to ditch the office and take cover?

unbelieveable footage

Another PDS Tornado Watch is on the way for Mid TN and AL. http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0626.html

We may have had a tornado here in north Murfreesboro. Extensive tree damage, fences blown out, and roof damage in the subdivision to the south of me. Clocked a 74mph gust before a limb took it out. Will get pics later. The path of the highest damage is very narrow, but is a perfect SW-NE line.

Yeah, and I got a front row seat to this.

So they're ready to pull the HIGH risk trigger, just destab. uncertainties from convection expected to push through here overnight. Some of the worst outbreaks for Mid. TN have had convection move through overnight into the early morning, get a break, and then BOOM. It is going to be a long 36 hours for the Nashville area, to say the least.

no, working fine for me.

hey, works well for me

of course the one cell in west TN has to be right over Jackson...
