Chase is on. Heading to Batesville to monitor.
Latest SPC Mesoscale Discussion: http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md2040.html
Synopsis: Factors are setting up for a strong system with low level rotation and SRH values high enough to maintain a long-track tornado. Destabilization will continue until the weak cap is broken. Once broken, hang on gentlemen.
In Batesville now. Gonna head west to Marks and watch thereQuote:

I have experienced and seen some major damage, from tornadoes, severe winds and severe hail.
These systems are moving 60-70 MPH, so you're not going to be able to outrun these storms. Once a warning is issued for your area, get to your safe place IMMEDIATELY. I don't care what you think about these warnings or your history with them. Get in there as soon as possible, and cover up. I don't want to hear of anyone getting injured or killed because they didn't heed a warning. Remember that all it takes is one tornado to cause a catastrophe.
Lots of sun breaking through outside Batesville. Wind blowing pretty strong straight out of the south.
Why can't we get 30mph storms?
Because the JetQuote:

The HRRR is not handling this well, IMO, so I wouldn't go with the latest run of the HRRR. It truly depends on the model and the run.Quote:

The cap is a bit stronger than expected. Just waiting for the cap to break, which should be soon.Quote:

Thanks keep us posted cause things are looking pretty weird around here.
I'm about 5 miles west of Bates parked at a John Deere dealership waiting impatiently. Hoping that stuff coming across the river gets better.Quote:

Sun is currently shining at 300p in West Point with mostly blue sky altho supposedly under tornado watch. Go figure.
Vegas, are you in the middle of that one in the Delta? Almost to Sardis now.
In North West Lafayette county and the sky is now black. Looks like it is going to be an eventful afternoon.
Take cover now! Watching the tornado cross 55 near Sardis on the Weather Channel and headed your way.Quote:

Shannon Flying Services - a crop dusting service and airstrip - is completely demolished according to a friend and a picture they just sent me. Also heard of some homes destroyed, but cannot confirm the extent of damage because the Sherriff's department has closed some things off
That Tornado is north of me. What worries me is the next part of the storm that looks to come right over us.Quote:

I hope no one would stoop that low..... I hope this stuff passes sooner rather than later and we don't hear of too many casualties. That double headed tornado in the delta looked crazy.Quote:

We are in New Albany now. Headed toward Oxford. Traffic is actually kinda bad for it to be looking this bad. We are telling everybody around to head to there safe place.
Could have been bad in Oxford or near. Spotter feed I was watching just south of town went out. Right before that he said "gotta get the **** out of here or I'm gonna die". Sped off south. Waiting on it to load back up
