Severe Possible severe weather February 4th-7th

I live in Spartanburg and that was scary. Bad thing was that the Tornado Warning was issued after the tornado
had gone by my home. No warning at all! Literally came out of nowhere. Truly will be a miracle if there are no major injuries
 
Y'all, this is less than 5 minutes from my house

There had to have been a tornado, we saw it in the rain in CLT/north CLT, theres damage that has the look of tornado damage vs straight line wind damage
 
WRAL saying the worse of the storm is moving through now. So the good thing is it seems once nb it goes through we will be okay.
 
77/63 right now. Our main action wasnt suppose to hit until 8 to 10pm.

Winds are now also gusting to 38 at PGV as the skies lift and we get some minor mixing.

You in a soundproof room? Lightning all around, heck I'm hearing thunder and it's still 8-10 miles away... Lol

Not sure. I'm right beside the window on the 16th floor. Haven't seen any lightening or heard any thunder. The rain is beating up against the window, but that's about it.
 
And now it's quiet. That didn't last long at all. I guess we had enough rain this morning to keep it from getting too bad here.
 
New severe warning for that storm that I thought was suspicious hours ago. It isn't going to hit me but it might hit the western parts of the downtown area.

Think I photographed the eastern edges of it. Went outside to maybe take photos and watch the clouds. They were going from SW to NE pretty fast to me.
 
There's a tornado warning around Augusta, GA heading into SC btw. So KCAE is not out of the woods by any means. The line should continue to beef up as it approaches.

This is why there was a few tornadoes around CLT earlier, right near the backdoor front and absolutely insane amounts of helicity close by 2DF50ED0-2171-4D64-B7B6-4C5C962CC575.gif
 
It looks like it's going to rain for a long time. The HrrRrRR tightens the southern extent of the line up and hauls it through later. But it sure doesn't look like it's in any hurry to do that, looking at the radar loop.

Damn cell is heading right for my house. Looks to be mainly wind with it right now.

Has some beautiful low level structure on it for a HSLC low LCL type day, knowing me if that was coming towards me I’d grab a few pictures, lol, stay safe man
 
Sounds like it was a good move to leave work to get my son from school. There's report of damage from the line that came through in Raleigh on Capital Blvd near my office, and the traffic lights are all out in the area.
 
Outflow is

Yep we have really created a heavy rainfall mess here. Outflow inching south with a south flow over top and the best forcing still way west, its going to rain a lot. We may not be out of the severe threat either, may see a second elevated line form in the larger area of rain this evening or early tonight as the better forcing moves in
 
I know hindsight is 20/20, and you really have no idea how the threat will turn out, but if that line is all I get from this, I have to say it ended up being underwhelming for me. Not complaining, and glad it was not like what some got today. Just saying I was expecting it to be worse for my backyard.
