Debris apparently went up 13,000 feet and landed 20 miles away.

I missed that report. I’m flipping back and forth between the two links.
There’s going to be a lot of flooding on all waterways in the middle of the country this week from all the rain the past few days. This system has really created a mess, and it isn’t over yet.

That tornado image was reportedly from 12 miles away. Looks like a large F5 from that distance.

Judging by damage it doesn’t necessarily look like an F5, maybe F3 or F4, I think an F5 would have actually looked much worse than what I see, but it certainly probably cut a pretty wide swath. We’ll know better in the morning.

Check that, 4 bodies, meaning 4 firefighters are in the fire truck, not victims.

No confirmation of fatalities in Jefferson City. They have emergency personnel from all around and don’t need more help.

I'm listening to the presser and got this scap that was showing as they were talking. I don't know if it was 'live' at the moment or video from earlier of the tornado as it was in the Jefferson City area. Very ugly sky, wherever it was.
