EDIT: 8:50 p.m. CDT:
A line of storms, with one potent supercell, blew through our area. The supercell was warned for a tornado though thankfully nothing was on the ground (this was after dark). We did get some hail, not quite but almost ping pong ball size and winds 50-60 mph. Mostly though it was quarters and lower.
Unfortunately another round of severe weather is expected on Tuesday; indications are the heavy-duty stuff will be to our north and northwest. Fingers crossed.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
Early this morning, a solid squall line with spin-up tornadoes on the leading edge put one down in the metro just after 5:00 a.m. this morning.
Luckily, no casualties have been reported. Secondary severe weather season getting wild this week for sure.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
That's good to hear.
Yesterday in northwest TN, it was actually a cool day. Mid 70s in the late afternoon. It got warmer today in the sunshine with little or no wind. The forecast shows mid 80s tomorrow, but rain on Friday will cool things down into the 60s.

But I think in general, we're done with the severe stuff, could use some quiet days, which are in fact ahead.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
Now on the back side of that system (now over MO/AR), getting NW winds 40-45 mph with higher gusts. We'll take this over an ice storm though, which we were dealing with this time last year and produced widespread outages.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
I'm on my phone. The power is out. Tornados were all around, but we are fine in our neighborhood. I'm not sure what damage is around my area. I know Mayfield, KY was hit hard.
Second update
Our power is back on. I'm starting to see pictures from town and they are not good. A tornado went right through the middle of it and several other towns in the area. The wind was never even that hard.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
It may or may not have just broken the 1925 Tri-State tornado's record for the longest distance ever traveled by a single tornado... and considering that one holds the record for the highest death count of any tornado in US history, that's not a great sign.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
The tornado that hit my town went right through our court square. The courthouse is sturdy enough that it was undamaged while the buildings right across the street were leveled. It looked like some of the houses in that area were damaged badly. The main damage from that tornado is about 1 1/2-2 miles north of where I live. We had some wind at my house, but not that strong. If we had not been watching the weather we would not have known it was happening.
I haven't found any news sources about my area, other than a Facebook post by the local newspaper, the office of which was destroyed last night. News Article
I saw two helicopters, they looked like some variant of Blackhawk, fly in and it looked like they were going in to land in town, this afternoon. It was the governor touring the damage.

Re: Weather in your area 2021
I was following this outbreak with a bunch of friends from the meteorology community including YT streamer N8 Snyder, as soon as I saw PDS tornado warning for Dresden my heart sank. Such a relief to know that you and your family are ok.Neocon wrote: ↑Sun Dec 12, 2021 1:33 am The tornado that hit my town went right through our court square.

On another note, the tornado that directly impacted the city of Mayfield, KY at a few points had delta velocities of 307mph and a 2.5mi wide debris signature, with debris being lofted as high as FL300

Re: Weather in your area 2021
It's been cooler and sunny today. Good VFR weather for the small aircraft flying over the dage, I guess.
