Surprise Tornadoes?

It sure fired up out of nowhere in Indiana and Ohio...already 5 tornado reports. Only now do they issue a Slight Risk, and that is because of solely the tornado threat! Very rare indeed except out of the tropics!

But only two actual tornadoes . . . the northern one with three reports had one of those reports come in with "significant roof damage" and something else I can't remember now. The southern one had a good couplet on it through the time of the second LSR time. I have a feeling both should be confirmed and the northern one could be a F1, maybe F2. But surprise? Definately . . . fired up GR2AE for a little peek at the hurricane models and saw six seperate TORs out, and thought to myself "What the heck?" Keeps you on your toes, though, especially since that system is moving through here (mid-atlantic) Tuesday afternoon . . . hopefully nothing like that, we really need a long soaking rain bad.
