The highlight of my day was an on-the-record Zoom interview with an individual who proudly showed me a gorgeous tornado photo they took in Kansas.
The best part? The photo they showed me was... my own photo... that I took in Oklahoma in 2024.
You can't make this up. GOLD.

Tomorrow, most CAMs (finally) feature an explicitly discrete supercell mode up and down the high Plains
Here's why this will likely lead to rapid upscale growth, stratus, and enhanced tornado potential in southern Illinois: (🧵)

Hey @NWSChicago, good morning :)
I thought i'd share my photos regarding the Odell and Dwight tornadoes, as I believe i have evidence that they were separate, rarher than one long track tornado.
timestamps provided in the alt text.

Am I crazy it was there a satellite tornado just southwest of this tornado towards the end of its lifespan?? Hard to see with darkness setting in.

My view of the Hebron IN long tracked Tornado over the past idk 30+ minutes. #inwx @NWSChicago

@Gabriel1813480 @danielharris151 @mee_wx @WXmarcus ohhhh my fault i thought you were talking about the Rochelle tornado only... yeah.. however, the ones i showed are still quiet wide in proportion to their height; and when estimated, do seemingly give some pretty high windspeeds depending on forward speed of the tornado..

@Enhanced_wx @danielharris151 @mee_wx @WXmarcus This patch of cycloidal marks northwest of Washington from the 2013 Washington IL tornado that's over 700 feet wide compared to Rochelle with about 500 feet wide
English
let me fix it for you
Greenfield = 180
Illinois = 205 for Washington (Rochelle is 180 max)
Pilger = 180
Smithville = 215 (intensity)
Thee 🌪ornadorologist@tornadorology
Iowa = >205 (Greenfield) Illinois = 200 (Rochelle is an EF5) Nebraska = 195 (Pilger) Mississippi = >210 (Smithville) #wxtwitter #tornado

@Gabriel1813480 @danielharris151 @mee_wx @WXmarcus can you tell me or show me where they are located? id love to try and estimate their windspeeds :)
English
@Enhanced_wx @danielharris151 @mee_wx @WXmarcus Doesn't really seem that impressive the most intense cycloidal marks look more like a saw blade was spinning on the ground
English
@Icantthink92968 im almost positive this cycloidal here is not only >190, but potentially >200mph
English
My take if you care
Iowa= Greenfield is 190 at most
Illinois= >201 (Washington)
Nebraska= Pilger 195
Mississippi= Smithville >210 is fine too

Meteorologists from NWS St. Louis spent the last year refining the May 16, 2025 St. Louis Tornado damage assessment. Below is a summary of the adjustments, with more details at weather.gov/lsx/STLTornado. Thank you to @MoSEMA_and @CityEMA for their assistance with the data.
