700 Warnings From Deadly Storms
UPDATE: More radar movies available here.
I am blown away by the numbers that I see below at 9 PM Central Time. Nearly 700 Severe Thunderstorm Warnings have been issued today, obliterating the previous record (since winter 2005) of 418. 140 Tornado Warnings have been issued, 35 Tornado Spotter Reports have been received, along with nearly 400 Hail Reports.
Tornadoes have been reported in Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Indiana. A lot of damage has been reported along with 11 deaths so far. CNN's article has photos and video of the storms.
