Pattern May: gateway to everyone's favorite season

They need to warn this cell, I know radar image from a distance but that's rotation and considering its history

WRAL showing damage now in the Lizard Lick, Zebulon, and Wendell area. Would not be surprised if they had a small tornado.
 
Haven’t left house yet second storm just started will see afterwards, from sounds of it my area doesn’t look good. Trees definitely down in wooded area by me . Bus on greenpace road by me in ditch though.
Yeah I see that 2nd cell is moving through same areas... Also just heard reports of trees down on vehicles somewhere around the Nash/Wake line I believe
 
WRAL showing more damage, trees ripped from the ground from the roots.
 
Looks the the next portion will be a little South of this mornings storms, see how they hold together across the areaScreenshot_20190513-124604.png

Yep, that's what she just said. She sent me some grainy sasquatch video, but you could hear it hitting the house and see it bouncing. She saved a couple big ones in the freezer. I'll confirm later. I always miss the good stuff, ug!
 
Storm just got warned going into Smithfield with radar indicated tornado. I'm to the North of what looks like the worst.

Forgive my ignorance, does NWS RAH rely on surrounding area radar stations or do they use WTVD's or WRAL's own radar stations be able to supplement while KRAX is down? Also, is there away to view other local radar's velocity map using an app such as MyRadar?
 
Just got out and rode around through what should have been affected area's between Smithfield and Kenly.... No damage and did not see any hail on ground, but looked to be hail fog all around. I'm guessing that the size was not too great as there were no leftovers. No indication of any wind or tornado damage. Did not go east of 95 though.
