Pulled my rant about LMK’s rating of the Milton tornado. Getting conflicting reports of whether they went with EF1 or EF2. That office’s past calls don’t exactly inspire confidence though. We’ll see.
Edit: Figured it out. This was bad reporting on WLKY’s end. EF1 damage in Milton, EF2 damage outside of Milton. Whoever wrote the article ignored the second part and just reported that an EF1 tornado hit Milton. I’d get chewed out big time at work if I sent out a story like that…

That is horrific. Honestly, I’m worried the death toll will rise after viewing these photos.

Had a sinking feeling in my stomach watching the radar as it passed over. Nothing I despise more than seeing that gut feeling confirmed the morning after.

Indiana DoHS said late last night that the three fatalities reported out of Winchester, IN were unconfirmed, so theres a bit of hope there

Town officials are now saying three critical injuries, but no deaths in Winchester. Sounds like something got miscommunicated.Indiana DoHS said late last night that the three fatalities reported out of Winchester, IN were unconfirmed, so theres a bit of hope there

Well with the experience, knowledge, tools, education that most of us on here do not have, I am sure they would have issued/upgraded those risks if they had the data to do so.
Even with all that they have going for them, predicting the weather is far more difficult than people realize :/ The SPC issues forecasts based on what they see in the models, etc. They cannot issue forecasts based on what is going to happen because there is no way for them to know with 100% accuracy exactly what is going to happen with the weather until it does.
We have to give them credit for what they do, that we do (will?) not do ourselves.

Plymouth tornado rated ef2
Need more photos to be sure, but unless the strongest winds were extremely compact and limited to the truss tower itself, the contextual damage here looks well below EF3. Sometimes I wonder if these metal transmission tower DIs get rated a bit too highly in some surveys.
