NW Louisiana, Shreveport, 9:25 pm, severe storms announced arriving in this area. Wind gust high, perhaps over 60 mph. Large tree limbs hitting house here, rain, some lightning. The worst has not fully arrived yet. On watch here til 1 am. 3 tornadoes in NW Louisiana areas, one near Monroe. The weather channel tv feed just froze up. More tornadoes being reported for Arkansas as well...tv froze...didn't hear where others occurring.

Lots of debri hitting our roof now and thunder more evident. Some folks lookig out their windows as things getting noisy here. More and more warnings from Louisiana to Tennessee, (Memphis). Warnings in Missouri, Illinois, Arkansas, Lousiana. Moving 60 mph fast moving storms. Tv back. The weather is said it will accelerate during the nite.

Sorry I missed it on this one.
Seems to be not as bad as predicted,which is a good thing.
No regrets.

Good night folks.

Oh,how funny is that(not).
The tornado sirens are going off here.
I wrote this storm off.

Whew.....just made it through the squall line, it was bumpy. 105mph winds reported 1mile from my house and a spotter saw a rotation literally over my house.

Guys, just be safe and take cover now in eastern TN. Just sleep in your safe spot. Rough weather!

Thanks for the heads up. Sitting here in Union county...what a mess this is. Have a bit of flooding in the basement. Shop vacs come in handy for times like this.

Stay safe my Friends....

Des

Confirmed EF2 in my town.

No reports of injuries or fatalities.

Now off to bed. (Insert sleeping face on pillow here.)

CSRA of SC (Central Savannah River Area).

winds pretty much steady at about 20 Mph, with gusts kicking up to 45 Mph here. 100 foot tall pines swaying pretty good. Partly cloudy to overcast. Clouds moving like they are in a the Indy 500.

Wind advisory warning the only one posted right now.

Front is well west of us reaching to Atlanta. Hate that, as it means this stuff won't get here until towards evening when it's getting dark.

I hear you.. they made a huge deal out of it here, sirens going off, sky got black, wind picked up, little bit of lightening, sirens going off, we're battening down the hatches.... and it rained.
We dodged the bullet this time. Just a few weeks ago we had a storm that peeled the shingles off of my garage like a banana and half the siding! No warnings or sirens for that one. The wind was so bad I probably need my back corner of my house tuckpointed.. Thank god its brick as Id have had siding in the next county.

I do think that this spring will be a wild one. Not armageddon, but its looking to be unsettled. Im hoping for a LOT more rain... damned gardens didnt produce for anything last year.

Ok so I lied. It is going to be rainy and windy.
I admit it already feels like the start of a hurricane out there.

I'm hearing reports from my friends in the Atlanta area:

- Multiple sirens going off
- DOT confirmed 300 vehicles blown off I-75 near exit 306
- 82-mph winds near Rome, GA

This picture just came in from Adairsville, GA.



Please stay safe, everyone!
