3 tornado warnings from meadville to union charge over to just below brandon / puckett line right now.
2 more in Louisiana, Wakefield and Lakeland... those are the ones you will both need to watch

Main threat area will basically be an area from Baton Rouge to Jackson for the next couple hours. I've seen several storms with good tight rotation but have not heard of any confirmed reports. Don't remember seeing any debris signatures on radar either.

Thanks guys. Climbed down. The wind was brutal and the distant thunder was on my mind!
