Radar Images From Tornado Outbreak

Here is a list of the radar images and loops that I have collected from this outbreak. All images with a black background are courtesy AccuWeather.com RadarPlus. WARNING: Most of the radar movies are large and will take some time to download and require Quicktime to view.

Hook Echo in Dyer County, TN (Tornado Report at 7:55 PM at "X")

But first, here's a special loop created for the tornadoes that occurred in Dyer, Gibson, Weakley, Carroll, and Benton counties in western Tennessee. The X's in the image below are the locations of the National Weather Service storm spotter reports of tornadoes last night in those counties. Click to overlay the radar animation and watch multiple supercells and lines of severe thunderstorms plague the same counties several times.
