Mayfield Ky particularly hit hard, up to an incredible 100 dead there. The great 1974 outbreak killed 64.

One stayed on the ground 274 miles or something, unheard of for a winter storm. It tracked only about 50 miles from my elderly parents in Ky. 3 others were reported but the one has so much devastation the others haven’t been covered much yet.

Should be dawn in the next hour so better pictures will start to arrive.

Not sure how many can see this radar image, the tornado just ripped through Mayfield.

That block to the NE is the debris field AIRBORNE.

Severe weather caused by man made climate change discussions in 3 2 1.. This is the normal fall tornado season. It happens. Unfortunately it’s deadly.

Jeff has several videos up on his Twitter feed- he’s in Mayfield. He’s one of the best storm chasers in the business- his videos are outstanding.

The destruction is beyond belief.

That tornado started touching down in Whit county AR, was up and down through 2 more counties before hitting the ground to stay Just NW of my house about 3 miles and growing stronger through the rest of AR and boot heel of MO, before our tv stopped tracking it and started watching the other 3 in our area. I live just north of Harrisburg and saw one of the later ones.

“One stayed on the ground 274 miles”

That’s astonishing.

“”The great 1974 outbreak killed 64.””

That had to be the one that hit Xenia, OH. We lived in Centerville, OH at the time. Moved there from CA just the year before and knew absolutely zero about tornadoes. There were warnings/watches on TV for hours before it hit. We were a few miles from Xenia and that damage was tremendous. The pictures I’m seeing on the Weather Channel now in KY look a lot worse to me than what we saw in 1974...
