Maybe there was over 100 tornadoes on Wednesday, LSRs for the day now show 259 reports. Even if you cut that in half, you are looking at over 125 tornadoes in one day.
Yeah I would have to say in the North here we don't heed the sirens like those in The South or Plains. It is just a matter of time before that issue will cause a large loss of life.
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.
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.
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
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.
