iowahawkeyedave Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 El Reno Airport, directly in the path of the Caddo Co, OK storm has SSE winds at 13mph while not too far north there are north winds. After everything that's happened today, wouldn't shock me if the storm would try to latch onto the boundary and do something even though it's almost 2am.

Calderon Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 At least one state office building has significant damage to it just east of downtown. The worst damage pictures I've seen so far are at least solid EF2 in damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a minimum yes, reminds me a lot of the tornado that struck Iowa City in April 2006 at night, which was an EF2. This one may be a bit stronger though.

Calderon Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 One thing that is concerning for metro St. Louis is the storms to the north, now in Illinois, have laid down a southward-moving outflow that the Jeff. City supercell is currently riding, and further warned on now in western St. Charles County. Another storm farther southwest, near Washington, is aimed right at STL and may intercept the outflow along the way and ride it in. I guess I'll find out in a little while.

On video probably doesn't do the tornado strength justice, because the damage is estimated to be lower, doesn't mean the tornado didn't have the winds necessary, sometimes it avoids buildings.

OortCloud Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Any chance it hit Hermann after it left Jeff City? Hermann's two webcams are out, so I assume their power is out.

Columbia/Jeff City's Channel 13's weather coverage was excruciating, Captain Monotone is a master of dead air and pregnant pauses. Makes Steven Wright sound high energy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
