Omaha, Nebraska just got fucked by a massive wedge tornado

The debris signature was 2.3mi in diameter

Everyone in the Midwest tonight should have multiple sources for weather alerts tonight and tomorrow, NOAA weather radios are ideal.

United States - Weather Alert

Hey all, don't know how tuned in to the local weather within the states you might be but we are seeing dangerous weather conditions we haven't seen the likes of in 10 years.

Many tornadoes have already hit multiple states, leaving a nightmarish path. At the time of this post, the storm is still going strong and still dropping tornadoes. These have been "seek shelter underground to survive" levels of bad.

Radar below! Please keep an eye on your local weather!!

Ryan Hall, Y'all is currently streaming with storm news and radar on youtube.

RadarOmega is a phone app that allows you to see storm chasers, weather alarms, and various kinds of radar.

Below are images from the national weather service, please take caution if you are anywhere near this. It has been a very strong and violent event.

If you're in the Lincoln and Grand Island Nebraska areas or Corsicana Texas, please be aware of tornadoes moving into your area.

I've been reading facts on Wikipedia again, and i'm overcome with the need to terrify non-Americans with the most underrated Terrifying American Thing: TORNADOES

Due to a quirk of mountain and ocean placement, the east-central United States has a higher number of tornadoes (particularly exceptionally strong tornadoes) than any other place on Earth.

And they're so fucking scary oh my God

[cryptoidantagonist]

as in "does the concept of a tornado fill you with fear", NOT "do you live under threat of tornado".

If you're on the fence, ask yourself with you would do if you were suddenly under a tornado watch/warning :3

If you are trying to tell me anything rn, I will not see it, my notifications are just an auto-refreshing deluge of boop chaos (invited; carry on).

This is not April Fool’s or boop-related: we are looking at 80 mph winds, heavy rain, hail, and tornadoes in the northwest of the state tomorrow (fellow Alabamians, have your weather apps and charger cords and hurricane lamps at the ready). I don’t know when it will hit us—I’m in central, so a bit later. If you’re in Huntsville or thereabouts, for sure keep an eye on forecasts.

I say this because when I watched a goddamn tornado go past my house late last year, in a neighborhood where we don’t GET tornadoes, we had no warning. Yes, I am still spooked about that. If you’re in NW AL you probably already know about the incoming weather, but: in case you hadn’t heard.

We’ve got 24 hours’ full notice this time, so we’re bringing in potted plants and battening down the patio furniture. The last Strong Wind Advisory we had blew an iron chair over and tore a seven-foot branch off our cherry tree.

I miss the Diagonal Trees that we had to cut down, but at least I’m not worried about them crashing into my bedroom now.

They will probably call a preemptive state of emergency tomorrow and possibly close schools early (wait, they just did). For us, this could either be nothing, or it could be a power/internet outage . Knock on wood, I’ll check in when I can.

Tornado Alley's Shift Eastward

AccuWeather's assessment of the change in tornado activity between 1950-1984 and 1985-2019

AccuWeather Lead Long-Range Meteorologist Paul Pastelok attributed tornadoes becoming more frequent to the east of Tornado Alley due to the lack of moisture in the original Tornado Alley, which can be traced back to the 20-year mega-drought gripping much of the Southwest.
