Let the spring "Tornado Alley" Games begin!

Yep, there's been two warnings in northern Alabama today.

If it's any consolation, the Moderate Risks haven't exactly proved out this year so far.

Meanwhile, the bigger storms have been on other days, or outside the Moderate Risk areas.

SPC needs to get on the ball.

FYI, according to GREarth I think TWC's Forbes and Bettes are heading to Hays in their 'Tornado Hunt'.  Let's hope they're blanked again today!

Looks like Bunty and I will be under the gun tomorrow.  Bunty, you might even see a little this evening.  They're projecting CAPE values in the mid 6000s today, but the cap is a little strong.

Hopefully those idiots won't get in the way and cause emergency resources to be diverted to deal with them.
