Springfield is a one of the largest cities in MO. ....

A phonecaller on this channel reported 2 large funnelclouds, but no TD so far.

I am listening to the stream and have been since I found out about it on a weather blog about 30 mins. ago.

Absolutly incredible. This would be a large outbreak if it were May. Historic outbreak in January.

It´s more traffic than last march. I should be in bed since 3 hours

sure did, thanks

BTW, the original tornado emergency cell is only 70 mi SW of St. Louis.

[brunota2003]

Look at those storms SW of the Springfield NWS CWA, down by the Oklahoma border...Talking strong low level rotation, with a tornado either occuring, or on the verge of occuring.

[simplykristi]

The storms are moving very quickly.. 45 to 50 miles an hour.

[Ed Mahmoud]

Checking the radar from Springfield, while individual cells are moving Northeast pretty fast, the overall zone is barely moving. Besides the fact that McDonald County, MO's tornado will be in vicinity of SGF in a few hours, the training may be producing a fairly narrow but long line of severe flooding.
