Y’all miss me?

Good news for our area today. However, Saturday looks like a much more organized threat than today and we will need to take it seriously.

[NWS Raleigh @NWSRaleigh]

The severe weather threat has further decreased today across central NC, with only far southeastern parts of the area under a marginal risk. Elsewhere, there is a general threat for thunder, with scattered showers and possibly a few storms this afternoon and evening. #ncwx

[WeatherYount @WeatherYount]

Here we go again. Spring 2020 is off to a busy start. More updates to follow.

[NWS Storm Prediction Center @NWSSPC]

An Enhanced risk is in place across parts of the Southeast tomorrow, Thursday April 23rd, with severe storms capable of producing damaging gusts, large hail, and tornadoes (a couple potentially strong). Please check back periodically for future updates. https://t.co/cM2G0CVMc7

My unofficial data has 141 Tornado Warnings issued by the @NWS for the 12z to 12z (7 AM CDT) period ending this morning (13 April 2020). This is the largest number of warnings since 285 on 2-3 March 2012. 27-28 Apr 2011 is largest on record at 450.

[Eric Webb @webberweather]

We just witnessed the largest single-day number of tornado warnings in nearly a decade in the US. Just goes to show just how impressive this tornado outbreak was in the southeastern US. #mswx #alwx #gawx #scwx #ncwx

[WeatherYount @WeatherYount]

Good news! Won’t be long before we are out of the neck of the woods. Praying that the eastern part of the state doesn’t feel this as badly as the rest of us.

[Brad Panovich @wxbrad]

Giving the all clear sign for the western Carolinas. Strong to severe storms will continue in the eastern Carolinas for the remainder of the morning. #cltwx #ncwx #scwx

[Jim Cantore @JimCantore]

Debris near Bethera, SC heading East. Major damage reported to two homes in Moncks Corner.

[The Associated Press @AP]

At least 18 people were killed and hundreds of homes were damaged as severe storms swept across the South. The National Weather Service says the storm front is expected to bring potential tornadoes, wind and hail to the mid-Atlantic states. https://t.co/pk3ADdQZZL

There’s lots of mid level rotation on this line segment between Southern Pines and Laurinburg, NC. My peeps in the Sandhills of NC need to keep an especially close eye on this over the next few hours because it wouldn’t take much for these to produce isolated tornadoes #ncwx

[Eric Webb @webberweather]

Walterboro, SC with a population of nearly 5,500 people, is likely taking a direct hit from a tornado. #scwx

[Philippe Papin @pppapin]

Yet another obvious large & dangerous tornado on the ground in SC just passing to the north of the KCLX radar. This one is completely rain wrapped. You just don't see these types of signatures at 630am in SC. #SCwx

[Eric Webb @webberweather]

A portion of this bowing segment is starting to wrap up quickly near Wadesboro in southern N.C. @NWSRaleigh @wxbrad @RaleighWx
