this thing is cranking up already...prayers to everyone...this does not look good...
A very dangerous Easter for many in Mississippi and Alabama...sending prayers to those who will be impacted today.
And I was crying in my beer over just a snowstorm here is Wisconsin. What an Easter!!!
Please Dear Lord protect these people on this most glorious of Days.
Its 58 degrees in Atlanta. Too cold for a tornado. We have a wind advisory til tomorrow morning. Thunderstorms.
TY! We were planning to hold communion at my relative’s house for family but called it off because of the weather.
We are expected to get bad weather here in SC this afternoon and tomorrow as well.
I hope state troopers are at every shelter making sure no one is closer than six feet to the next and handing out large fines.
It was about 80 about 4 am this morning when it passed over E.Texas, we were under a tornado watch.
Prayers up, exceptional bow/squall-line over LA headed straight toward Jackson, MS.
its 58 now.....after noon solar heating will change that. Georgia is included in the original enhanced warning area....this thing will carry on past midnight. Heads up.
Yep.I’m in Minnesota. Up to 8 inches of the white stuff today. It’s so depressing after social distancing with the neighbors in sunny 60 degrees yesterday. There may have been a few cocktails involved....
Prayers up for those in danger from this storm system. We get those too - scary stuff!
How can this happen when people aren’t driving Cars and flying on Airliners that spew all sorts of Carbon Emissions due to the Kung Flu?
Aren’t Tornados caused by Globull Warming?
High winds and rain this morning took out part an old barn near my house in Central Texas. My tractor and trailer are in it, but that part of the barn is mostly intact.
Anyone have a good radar site? Accuweather just went down.

I suspect some sarcasm but here in Alabama the governor has said that the threat from tornados overrides social distancing requirements. Some shelters have posted “At Your Own Risk” signage.
Glad I installed my personal shelter about two months ago.
Monroe LA is taking a direct hit even as I type. A debris ball has been seen on radar.
They forecast Wisconsin will be revisiting early March this week. Too cold for tornadoes.
