Complete loss for words... We're really gonna spread blatant misinformation about something I have come forward and apologized about multiple times that still haunts me. Well...I guess Please just stop...



This is surprisingly my first time reviewing all of the high-resolution imagery from the 2011 Smithville, MS EF5. It’s shocking how rapidly the tornado intensified, going from likely EF3 damage in the treeline to violent EF5 intensity as it began trenching the field and swept away a structure. I'm currently in the process of reanalyzing the entire path for a more accurate centerline.






Re: #Enderlin #EF5 #tornado (1/2) The empty asphalt car wasn’t lifted to its position. It rolled there. You need the right light angle to see this, and fortunately, one of Aaron Rigsby’s drone shots used in the @NWSGrandForks report has it.





I'm not surprised that this well-crafted video documenting this historic tornado upset the rather unusual Bridge Creek fanbase—no shade intended, but wow. It's a genuine shame to see that reaction. That said, I highly recommend watching it! Celton's videos are always intriguing.






Can only wonder how much of this will be from the NWS. Wild to think with the staffing concerns at WFOs brought up last year. Maybe this inferred from that email that went around a couple weeks ago?
