In our case it could be devastation! :shock:

How about a nice personalized clock or thermometer that promotes their web site? I'd be happy to make it.

This may not work anyways unless somebody want to keep track.  SPC doesn't separate TOR and SVR WW's with different number sequences.  WW 892 was a TOR on 12/30/06


And I don't see any historical counts of Risk days at all, let alone by level.


Ideas?

Well so far I'm up to a total of 9 watches and warnings for just my county in about 3 1/2 hours. Going to be a long night. :shock:

Ever wonder what a confirmed on the ground wedge tornado looks like on GR3? This is about 20 miles due south of me.
The nice bright white spot right above the tornado is the hail core. Over 3" hail with 60+ mph winds.

Makes one wonder if this is going to be a bad year for tornadoes.  Hopefully it was just a fluke.
