Welcome to the board. It was/is a historic outbreak. I will never forget this one. It reminds me how important the job of a meteorologist truly is. Kudos to the NWS offices, SPC, emergency managers, news outlets, etc for saving countless lives today.
I agree, as much as we all love extreme weather, these days just make us have to stop and think. I mean, extreme to me is an 80mph gust of wind in a squall line. I cant fathom some of the numerous events that have taken place today. Thankfully there was lots of warning, but with the warning, what can you really do to protect yourself when theres an F4 or F5 bearing down on you?

Exactly what I thought. Those things are heavy and probably imbedded themselves into other larger pieces of debris. Very intresting facts.
