It should remain well south of Greensburg. Sounds like Protection was wiped out though

The warning has expired on the Comanche cell but it still has major rotation.

Don't see why; it is moving northeast. Maybe include Greensburg to be cautious, but that's as far as it needs to include.

those poor people of Protection KS, i hope they are all safe somehow.

If it continues in the direction it has the past 10 minutes, it would go 1 mile WEST of Greensburg.

I think haviland and cullison are along 400, they'll be inline for this new storm...
