  1. No I agree with you on this, as that MCS probably laid a boundary in N. AL that enhanced the shear even more in the area. Plus the loss of power aspect that the MCS caused too.
  2. Agree really puts yesterday into perspective though as it could have been much worse as there had originally been a moderate risk up to Cleveland only to be scaled back some. As bad as yesterday was, it could have been much worse.
  3. Very well put. Really can not sum it up much better than this.
  4. Yeah same here has to be close to the highest scan ever recorded by an nws radar.
  5. I really wish that it was, I fear that maybe we could get close to the super outbreak numbers as janet mentions.
  6. I fear that there are some areas that they have not even gotten to yet.
  7. Indeed, these 3 really did a great job in predicting this events magnitude.
  8. Also preliminary tornado reports for the day are at 161, which is probably also going to go up. This also puts us well over 1000 tornado reports for the year, and it is only April 28th
  9. I just got into work and all I can say is that I am speechless, and I fear that this number is still going to go up. Especially as they have just now seen the light of day down there.
  10. Yeah, really puts into perspective not only the vertical shear that was in the atmosphere but the horizontal shear today.
  11. Yeah its tough to say how fast those winds were but I'd probably take a stab at 80-100+
  12. At first it was inflow from 4 to 6, around 7 mins its RFD when he moves the car.
  13. Way too close there. That guy should have never been that close.
  14. For the state of Alabama, which purely by the numbers could be comparable for the state of Alabama.
  15. Agree, like many have said, you can put warnings out an hour in advance, but it is entirely up to the people to heed these warnings.
  16. Yeah this isn't like Bill's Motel. We are talking about big buildings.
  17. The thing is, with what had happened this morning, most areas didn't have sirens today. This was the absolutely the worst possible scenario with respect to loss of sirens.
  18. Boy I hope this is high, because if not that is horrendous.
  19. This is not good at all, that area is kind of a radar hole too.
  20. Yeah people often wonder what a supercell composite of over 30 and a sig tor over 10, we have seen what previous potentials can truly yield today.
  21. Yeah seeing that multiple times on different tornadoes in different parts of Alabama. Really unbelievable.
  22. I want to reiterate that the coverage out of ABC 33/40 today has been outstanding, and their message has probably saved many lives.
