    Reed just drove through a tornado. His passengers are apparently just tourists and were screaming at him to stop. What the fuck did they expect reed timmer to do

    That was via radar and I'd be careful when ppl use that kind of language. So many things to consider... sampling height/distance from radar, type of radar, etc.

    From a velocity stand point on radar. Damage surveys still need to happen.

    Got one 2 miles away heading to the house. Kids have their bike helmets on in the basement, I've got an old fashioned.

    Edit: missed the house. Had some nastiness but never saw a funnel. Fantastic light show now

    I'm not positive the full methodology here, but it's a ML type probabilistic forecast, so caveats apply, but it's the highest I think I've seen this particular "forecast"product. Tomorrow has very high end potential, but lots of uncertainty still

    My dad’s house is top left. No damage. They have a pet daycare on the other side of their property with over 50 dogs. That would have been bad. upload_2024-4-27_8-23-4.png

    Truck mountain. My dad was friends with Bob(?) Woodhouse and the farmer that owned all that land. We went to breakfast with Roger (land owner) and he insisted on buying breakfast. He the. Took out a check for a few million bc he had sold truck mountain to Woodhouse…we let him buy breakfast.
