I believe it!
Lighting like I’ve never seen before, wind and rain blowing like crazy.

Good luck. Pretty wild to be seeing this in January.
No - I haven’t... it was hard enough to out-run the Alabama tornados last April.
The southern warning area has been extended out... tracking south of the I-40 route in W. Tenn... kinda toward Whiteville.
I couldn’t find it either at that site.
txhurl,
Could you PLEASE inform us of where to get that most excellent weather map? It is the best I’ve ever seen and would love to have access to it.
From: a frustrated meteorologist......
metmom, reddevil, jennings, I said I ripped it from wunderground. I’ve asked the author where he got it. I’m waiting for an answer. Not ignoring y’all.
I'm just a big baby--afraid of my shadow and thunder and lightning when I'm alone at night. I blame it on watching that movie "The Haunting" when I was little. ;-) And I had to sleep between my mom and dad for a week...with the light on...after "The Exorcist." Seriously. (They probably almost took me to a shrink.)
OK sirens have stopped. Take care, L!

Sorry, I didn’t see that comment of yours.
wunderground, eh?

Monkeys Eyebrow? Lol!
60 MPH gusts reported at Poseyville, and Mount Vernon, In, just before the hour.
The line is right at the Indiana-Illinois border now.
Storms moving NORTH much faster than the line is moving to the east. Quite strange, that.
