andyhb Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Two circulations about 8 miles apart nearing Clarendon AR, with a couple of funnel cloud reports. The storm near Marvel in the Memphis CWA is close to requiring a TOR. Which would be the one approaching West Helena I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superstorm93 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 TO REPEAT...A TORNADO IS ON THE GROUND. TAKE COVER NOW. MOVE TO AN INTERIOR ROOM ON THE LOWEST FLOOR OF A STURDY BUILDING. AVOID WINDOWS. IF IN A MOBILE HOME...A VEHICLE OR OUTDOORS...MOVE TO THE CLOSEST SUBSTANTIAL SHELTER AND PROTECT YOURSELF FROM FLYING DEBRIS.
