Deep South Severe Event - January 10-13 2020

[StormNine]

They pushed up the tip off time for UGA/Auburn from 7pm to 11am due to severe weather.

SW MO gets to have a severe weather cake and a winter weather cake with the same storm.

Since 1950 the State of TN has only had 6 EF 3+ tornadoes and 2 EF4+ tornadoes.

This- while not impossible - double digit snowfalls would be a more common occurrence.

That doesn't mean that we won't see such an event but I wouldn't bet the house on it either.

In January, though?  I'm saying only for the month of January.  If there is an EF3+ anywhere in the state of TN, we'd be looking at a highly unusual event.

SPC has gotten rid of the significant tornado risk as of the latest update so it looks like the EF3+ risk is (quite thankfully) mostly gone.

If we have to have severe weather can we please wait till Spring. Snow or Sunny are my faves in January!

Tornado watch posted now including the river counties here in West TN

The current map from MEG is the most colorful I've seen in a long time and maybe the most colorful ever at this hour of the morning. Hopefully we can see some excitement from this storm system but no damage.

Tunica just had a 79 mph wind gust. Wow power outages are going to be widespread over there.

Almost certain a Tornado passed just about a mile south of me.  Could not see anything but could hear it and it also looks like a debris ball was present on dual pol.

Wow glad you are safe!

Debris ball still evident too, just not as pronounced as a few scans ago.

TDS over eastern Desoto now and the local stations are talking about weak rotation saying wind is likely the bigger threat. Unreal.
