Very bad day for MI unfortunately with 232 new deaths reported, I wonder if it's due to a lag in weekend reporting. I think there's an increase pretty much everywhere every Tuesday and Wednesday. 

TDS with the storm due east of Mobile, though it was more defined a few scans ago.

What would cause the velocity to be this impressive but have the cc hole progressively get less pronounced? Can someone smarter then me answer this?

Not hitting anything, regardless of how strong the tornado is there needs to be something in its path to loft debris. 

Couplet NW of McComb steadily improving as well.

Ya there’s definitely something going on the modes aren’t catching. Be interesting to see how things evolve tonight. Some short range models are showing the environment becoming increasingly favorable for tornadoes as the night goes on  

While wind profiles look good overnight on the mesoscale models, they've been so far off till now that it's hard to know for sure. 

The tornado warned storm in Western Alabama has the strongest rotation of any storm so far today, though it doesn't look like it'll go through much for now. 

Pretty strong rotation for that TW'd storm entering Needham AL. 

Weak TDS on the tornado warned storm in LA. 

Edit; much more defined now, likely a TOG there. 

The cell SE of Columbus GA looked mildly interesting for a few scans, though it's in a bit of a crappy radar spot at the moment.

however another cell to the SW won't if it gets its act together 

Still a very populated area

Tuscaloosa storm

 

tight couplet now

Just got a tornado warning, went from broad to tight rotation in like 2 scans. 

Big CC drop over Heflin

Hi res NAM has insane winds at 850 mb, if we can mix some of these down with heavier precipitation it will be a high end wind event. 

Very active day across the southeast, I'm surprised it's so quiet here.

Debris Signature now...

Debris signature got massive the last few frames 

This storm in western GA isn't messing around 

Edit;  it's actually in eastern AL

Tornado emergency now for that cell as it's corssing some smaller towns in Alabama. 

Very close call for Chico TX in the next few minutes, there's a pretty significant TDS with that storm.

Edit; Rotation looks very mean now

PDS warning for the storm approaching Popular Bluff.

They have a legit shot at a moderate snow event. 

Anything to add to our misery.

While it sucks, it does at least show that with some luck and good timing you can snow in the worst of patterns.

12Z GFS has potential - how do we get this to trend north ?

The Euro has your answer (but you're not going to like it) 

Winds picking up big time in Staten Island now after a brief lull.

Lowest barometric pressure I can find is 28.88 at several locations in NJ.

While strong, the low is really broad and elongated at the moment with a relatively large area of similar pressure readings. Lowest are Allentown and Mount Pocono at 28.85.

This warning is for area east of Yazoo City MS, with the possible tornado near I-55.

--

At 404 PM CST, a confirmed large and extremely dangerous tornado was
located over Pickens, or 16 miles southwest of Durant, moving northeast at 50 mph.

This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. TAKE COVER NOW!

HAZARD...Damaging tornado.

SOURCE...Radar confirmed tornado.

Pickens is a relatively small town in size, the tornado either passed VERY close to them or directly over them.
