[Taylor Campbell]

Suspicious storm mode.

 

[TH2002]

Both of the currently active warnings in Indiana have fairly impressive couplets

 

[Taylor Campbell]

TDS!

 

[atrainguy]

Most of western Ohio is now under a tornado watch.

 

[TH2002]

Probable tornado down

 

[Taylor Campbell]

Tornado passed just north of the airport there south of McCordsville, IN.

 

[TH2002]

Hard to tell because CC is messy but very impressive hook + couplet, maybe tornado with this one

 

[TH2002]

Tornado Warning including Beavercreek and Xenia.

edit: Uh oh. CC drop.

 

[atrainguy]

Still warned, and pointed straight at Columbus.

 

[OHWX97]

A little more than half an hour ago, I saw a very brief, wispy funnel north of Wilmington, OH. It got close to the ground but I’m unsure if it actually touched down or not. Storms are racing away and my chase is over. Will post more later.

[tornado examiner]

Intense indeed

 

[tornado examiner]

I’m guessing that an EF3+ rating is likely for that tornado….unfortunate that is was fatal though.

 

[UK_EF4]

Certainly intense but I don't know what rating will be assigned.

[Lake Martin EF4]

You know maybe that "mid-range EF4" guy got last night's tornadoes mixed up cause DANG that's intense

 

[Shakespeare 2016]

You know maybe that "mid-range EF4" guy got last night's tornadoes mixed up cause DANG that's intense.

I GUESS I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THIS TORNADO REACHED EF5 INTENSITY. IF THAT WAS A HOUSE THAT WAS SWEPT AWAY AND WIND ROWED THAT IS INCREDIBLE. NOT TO MENTION WHAT APPEARS TO BE SOME PRETTY INTENSE GROUND SCOURING.
