Knock on wood but we haven't had decent amounts of snow here this season ! I think we've seen MAYBE a couple of inches total this season .

Looks like there may be a potentially large & dangerous severe-weather outbreak (including tornadoes) down in Dixie Alley tomorrow. that's a long way from me, but if I was there, I'd make sure to have multiple cameras charged & ready....to go video & photo some storms. --- To anyone living in the affected states, stay safe! (and hope any tornadic activity that does occur remains in open fields)

Well... It looks like that forecast has verified tonight. Multiple tornadoes have occurred down in MS A couple looked pretty bad on radar, and from what I've heard sounds like they may have been.

We haven’t had any severe weather here in Florida. In fact, I can’t remember the last time we had thunderstorm! I did notice on Weather Channel some tornadoes in MS, AL and going into TN. And I notice that area seems common to have tornadoes, and frequently see severe weather around Huntsville AL area.

@Cole D: I'm surprised you wouldn't have had any recent thunderstorms being in FL (last time we had one here in CO was last summer.. but that's normal, we don't get them in winter) --- That area down there is the tornado-alley of the southeast & is known as "Dixie Alley" for that reason. Winter tornadoes aren't uncommon there. --------------- On the storms in MS/TN last night, haven't had a chance to look around much, but this sounds bad.

Usually here in Glorida we get the thunderstorms more in the summer. But in the winter we usually have them when cold fronts come in. And I find those exciting, because usually get them at late night/early morning, when the warm and cool air starts te mixing. It makes very LOUD thunder that even causes the windows to vibrate. So it wakes me up usually and since it’s pitch dark, you don’t know where it is without pulling out the radar. I really enjoy those kinds of storms, but of course as long as there are no tornadoes like last night in some states. And I also enjoy the storms that come in just as I’m going home and as I’m driving, I see the leaves blowing and sky gets dark, and I can get home just before it lets out the rain pour! But that hasn’t happened in a long time. Hopefully this summer.

Severe weather is back... I'm hearing there were several large tornadoes confirmed on the ground today. Possible mass casualty as well...? The Chief Meteorologist for my news station, 2 news, just said this. I hope that info is incorrect. Ohio is in for a bite as well from those storms. Chance for tornadoes, and also the threat of 80mph winds with those storms. This could be a late night event, and THAT is what sucks.

The Chief Meteorologist for my news station, 2 news, just said this. I hope that info is incorrect. Oh yeah that's for sure, severe weather was back big time yesterday...and late into the night. (was watching on radar, and even there with some you could tell...yep that's on the ground and probably a bad one. I also had a few YouTube storm-chaser livestreams running) As of now the SPC shows 80 tornado reports from that system (remember that a single tor can generate more than 1 report) .. plus 440 severe wind reports & 328 large hail reports. When I was looking at some of the tornado warnings while watching radar, there were a couple where the storms were moving at 80mph! (most were in the 40-60 mph range, and multiple had a PDS(Particularly dangerous Situation) warning - something used only for more extreme cases) Just think of a tornado-warned storm blasting towards you at 80mph, at night. .eek. -------------- No storms where I am, but related to that system that brought the nasty weather to the central part of the country, we got wing with gusts of 50+ mph yesterday.
