Stebo Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I don't know how one can even describe what Yazoo City has been through. Not quite as short of a time span but the people of Jackson Tennessee are about the only others who have been hit pretty hard in such a short period of time.

Stebo Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Kind of a hellish nightmare for Mississippi. Yeah, a lot of these are radar indicated warnings right now, but with this time of night there aren't many spotters who would be on the roads plus the fact that Mississippi isn't you best road network/topography/vegetation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wouldn't be shocked if we ended up with 2-3 EF-4s in the last 24 hours and yes I would agree that there were some impressive couplets especially considering it is December of all things.

Impressive? Yes. Greensburg-esque? Not really. I didn't say EF-4s would not come out of today... I just don't really see more than 1. No doubt there were some good EF-3 tornadoes out there today, but from the damage pics I've seen (perhaps a few more links in this thread would be good?), I'm not seeing definitive EF-4 damage. "EF-3 borderline EF-4" is still EF-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brettjrob Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 We'll see about the ratings. But regardless, I think it's fair to say none of the velocity images from today really compared at all with Greensburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I will agree with this, I don't know where comparison of today to that day is coming from. Impressive radar signatures sure, anything even remotely close to Greensburg, no.

Ellinwood Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Just sayin... Also I would give it time there is several storm surveys still to be done. "It's likely none" and "There will be none" are two different things. I'm not expecting EF-4s to come from today, but I wouldn't be surprised if we did see one. Could you send me or post pics/links to damage from today that you would consider to be EF-4? I saw one house from Sunset Hills, MO (a white house with a white van amongst the debris) that might be considered EF-4 damage, but it looks to be more high-end EF-3 (yeah, the difference isn't much, but there is a difference).

The couplets earlier were scary strong and classic looking, reminiscent of Greensburg, KS Sorry if this offended someone with this comment. To clarify what I meant was I have not seen this sort of training, multiple gate to gate couplets from the same storm. If you followed the greensburg storm as it happened, you'll recall it was one massive cell that later had multiple tornado warnings being produced out of the same storm. I think I remember reading it did produce several tornadoes after the Greensburg hit. Reflectivity was not as clean on today's storm but the SRV image just looks crazy. For a time it appeared two circulations were moving in slightly different directions from the same storm complex. Not too often you see the tornado emergency issued either.

tornadotony Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 The cell appears to be cycling on the latest scan, but for the greatest radar hits of the New Year's outbreak of 2010-2011, I present to you...87kt gate-to-gate on the MS/AL border at 2:37 AM on New Year's Day!
