Highest probably of damaging storms and violent tornadoes for the year so far is going to occur today. Thankfully we shouldn’t get the serious stuff where I live, but I will be tracking it this afternoon to see what happens.

Great, I am right on the edge of that pink zone. I just attract tornados when I’m working on the road...

There is a reason I am sitting inside reading Oppo this late on Sunday.

I mean aside from the usual reason that I’m lazy.

Nothing wrong with that. Going to be a busy day for weather nerds like me.

Definitely keep an eye on it, then. I take TWC’s TorCon with a grain of salt usually, but the SPC has been saying it will be bad for a few days now. Going to be very interesting. Definitely stay aware and keep your phone handy.

What part are you in? Already getting tornado warnings in western LA.

It’s supposed to hit near me early tomorrow morning I think.

I’ll do what I did when I was near Moore, OK 4 years ago: grab some beers and hang out in the hotel staircase. Outside of that, all I can do is roll the dice.

Is MS, right where LA, MS, and AR borders meet. Nothing bad right now, slight drizzles, the air is still.

Ah that’s right. I remember you mentioning that a while back. Didn’t know you were still there. Up around Rolling Fork I assume.

Bout a half hour north of there, and right on the river.

Here’s what the weather looks like from my job site, looking directly southwest (that is the Mississippi River)

Not scary yet, but something is lurking out there.

Nice. Yeah it’s definitely heading that direction. Stay safe!

You have a tornado warning in your area! Let us know you’re alright.

I feel ok, but I’m in a strange place. There’s a bunch of dancing and singing munchkins all around me, and some crazy lady just accused me of killing her sister...
