Severe 3/24-3/26 possible severe wx

It seems the saving grace with that cell moving over downtown Atlanta will be the surface winds are more veered than they were earlier. That should hopefully stave off anything like what happened in Newnan in terms of severity.

*knocks on wood*

It is looking increasingly nasty though, and the rotation has gotten stronger / more organized.
 
I know Glenn Burns said we could all go to bed, but the screaming eagle about to move over north ATL sort of has my attention.View attachment 80611View attachment 80612
Burns should be ashamed to have said that... I am still awake, not by choice, after that mother just went over my house, the continuous lightening and explosive thunder were insane.
 
And of course I am gettimg a big storm now with lots of thunder and lighning. Last week I got zilch when under a tornado watch and everything was ao hyped up. And the streak continues of getting worse storms when I am not under any kind of watch.
 
Prayers for everyone that got hit by a tornado. My uncle lives in newnan and it doesn't look good ?
 
Im very thankful the death toll hasn't been higher than what it is now. There was some bad tornadoes yesterday
 
I slept through that last line must not have been that bad. Around 230

You had damage from the storm this morning? Was it warned?
 
This brings up a subject i have campaigned for for years. I believe that on these days when there is a long-track tornado, or at least that rotation, that covers multiple cwa's and or states, that the nws should enact an emergency tracking graphics package that would show not just the tornado warning boxes, but also the history of the track. I know its hard to know for sure until after the fact, but I think more urgent emphasis and resources should be put into play with a graphics package that would show what they think to be the previous path of the long track system, along with the existing boxes. I believe that would put a lot more urgency and information in the hands of the public if they see that track, and I believe it would help save lives.
 
So would 220 miles break or at least tie the record for longest tracking tornado?
You could say it would be the longest reliably surveyed tornado path off all-time. Still debate over whether tri-state was down the entire time or not and we will never know for sure.

But if they do find this tornado was down the entire path it could definitely lend credence to the tri-state path length.
