I just came in from checking on Buddy. I feel gritty. Dirt in my teeth, nose, and eyes! 🤧
 
My weather radio started blaring about 2am... and kept it up til daylight. All I got was a shower of rain about 5am. But I got a heck of a lightening show! Finally got to sleep about 6am.

Round 2 starts this afternoon around 3pm. This is the main event!!! I'm sitting in the highest danger zone that can be issued by the weather service. Super cells and long track tornadoes probable... Long track means EF-3's, 4's, and 5's, the big boys!!!!

Might lose a roof or a few shingles with smaller tornadoes... The big ones suck pavement off roads and flatten everything, Fingers crossed!!!

The party is about to start for me, couple more hours. I'm more worried about the storms at the bottom of this pic than the big ones near the top. Those smaller 'spotty' storms will produce super cells! :(

Those storms are full of tornado warnings! Keep us posted!!
 
Right now there are 4 or 5 tornadoes on the ground in mississippi crossing into alabama. I lost power for about 5 min but it came back on. Gave me time to finish the dishes and toss a load of towels in the washer.

I have a gas stove so I'm having pan fried ribeye steak for dinner with or without power! 😊
 
@Swing You safe? Looks like you're about to be in the shooting gallery! :(

So far so good for me... the really good news... Getting heavy showers ahead of these super cells. With tornadoes, like hurricanes, Heat = Power. More heat means bigger and stronger storms.

The rain bands ahead of the cells are taking heat out of the atmosphere. Maybe we'll get through this without any monsters!!! Still have nadoes everywhere, just not monsters!

Looks like @snappy1 is out of the severe threat! Sure looked pretty rough passing over her town earlier! Be safe @Peanut !!

It is just moving into my area. It seems it may shoot towards the top of Madison Co, and I'm now more towards Owens Cross Roads, other side of Monte Sano, so I may only get a good thunderstorm.

And I have family in Madison, so I'm watching that. They may be okay also.
