@sentdefender This is fake. Why are these accounts pushing this obvious fake video. Someone link me a real source

@ReedTimmerUSA @BradArnoldWX Great intercept! Was an awesome day to be playing leapfrog with Dominator 3.

Check out this crazy video of the Dominator 3 intercepting the Rockton, Illinois from the follow shot of @BradArnoldWX , the Tornado Sniffer!

Haven't posted my Rockton, IL tornado yet as there is plenty of other great content out there. After being close to but unable to see the Lena tornado through the rain, a high-contrast tube made things significantly less white knuckle. #ilwx

Twister Sisters tornado intercept! 🌪️
Sooo, @SavannaBritoWX and I ended up being caught by a partially condensed, birdfart tornado while driving SE of Janesville, WI near the small town of Turtle, WI at approximately 6:02pm. I saw a video posted by @SWeberpal who had captured video of this same tornado, which is initially how I found out that our suspicion of having driven through a small, weak tornado was confirmed. I’ll add in a video clip of a screen recording I took of Savanna’s Facebook live feed which shows at seconds 12-13 the rotational movement of rain and small ground debris in the field to our S, moving NE towards us. At about second 14, you can clearly see that we are in the rotation of the tornado, which lasted for a total of approximately 10-15 seconds. At this time, we were traveling due E on E Townline Rd, towards Turtle, WI, which we had just turned onto from CTH-J. What the camera doesn’t capture is that my side of the car (driver’s side), was being pelted with rain and ground debris (mud, small sticks, and worms). This makes sense because approximately 98% of tornadoes in the northern hemisphere rotate counterclockwise, so because the tornado initially hit us on the R side of the car, my side (L side) was the one getting hit with the rain and debris. Once getting out of my car a few hours later, I noticed the worms had essentially exploded all over the side of my car from the force of being thrown into it. 😅
Not exactly how we wanted to experience our first zero meter, but I guess we’ll take it! 🌪️🤙🏻
The first picture is a screenshot from @SWeberpal’s video of the tornado and the video clip is the screen recording from Sav’s Facebook live.

@CPalermo_Storms @EmmaWalkerWx @SavannaBritoWX @NWSMilwaukee There's a fairly decent track of EF0 damage down Maple Lane east of County J and some along County J. Lots of tree damage and some outbuilding damage. It was a fairly broad tornadic circulation with occasional condensed vortices rotating around it.

@SWeberpal Glad to see you saw that tree in time. What cross roads was this around? -TH

Tornadoes Southeast of Janesville, WI this evening. My hometown. Some scary moments as the tornadic circulation moved NE toward friends and family. @NWSMilwaukee #wiwx

Tornado near Briggsville earlier this evening. Was down for 5 minutes or so but I had did the difficulty viewing it through its entire life cycle due to trees and a bad road network. @NWSMilwaukee #wiwx

A very concerning severe weather setup across S. WI and N. IL this afternoon and evening. Potential for a cluster of supercells with attendant tornado threat. The fuel for these storms is more reminiscent of May or June than April. #wiwx

@weather_wolf67 @nrs_ratched @PeterBernegger It's going to be an uphill battle. Republicans have struggled mightily in statewide races when Trump isn't on the ballot. However, Tiffany is about as good of a candidate as the GOP can hope for in Wisconsin right now between name recognition and being in tune with rural voters.
English

@nrs_ratched @PeterBernegger We will elect Tom Tiffany.
We have two bipartisan issues he’s targeting.
1. A 400 year tax increase.
2. Energy companies trying to jack prices.

State Supreme Court Election Results: Chris Taylor (D) 462,965 to Maria Lazar (R) 297,493
+165,472 for Taylor, she won
-There are 1,798,000 Republicans in Wisconsin
-There are 1,477,000 Democrats in Wisconsin
-Only 16.5% of Republicans (generally speaking) turned out for Maria Lazar......and why?
Two out of many reason: citizens know elections are rigged 100 different ways.
Secondly, when they get a "Republican" in it is just a Democrat in disguise, like John Thune.

@EquinealTDN @dandakich They've beat the last 5 top-15 teams they've played, all in different ways. That doesn't happen by talent alone.
English

@dandakich The fact that you said it makes it completely useless. Two guys (very talented) combined for almost 70 of their points. That makes Gard a good coach? Got it.
English

@Jake_Steede @dandakich Bad take.
Have you seen the recruiting he's done in the portal?
English

@CW4640 @dandakich he needs to get to the sweet sixteen, he’s a massive postseason joke

@atensnut Why did this guy drive away? Could he have not raised his bucket to the guy and helped him?

@TeaAndTornadoes When you're in Wisconsin, a shortwave is 20 hours away, and the good moisture is still near the gulf... I'll take all the overnight LLJ I can get.

@joelrich4goblue @BarstoolUofM Wisconsin was very up and down in November and December. They’ve been a very good team in the new year. Two of their three losses since Jan 1 were by 2 points or less.
English

@BarstoolUofM Wisconsin is a confusing team idk how they have 7 losses
English

@Evan_Flood Can we bring out a new officiating crew for the second half?
English

Nick Boyd: 20 points, 3 assists
Nolan Winter: 7 points, 7 rebounds
Andrew Rohde: 6 points, 3 assists
#Badgers

@ZachHeilprin Despite the officials. Absolutely atrocious again.
English

#Badgers put 51 points on the No. 4 defense in the country and lead by 17 at the break.
Nick Boyd already with 20 points.

@PabTalksSports @ESPNMadison Despite the officials. Absolutely atrocious tonight.

Raise your hand if you had #Wisconsin up DOUBLE DIGITS on your bingo card...
