Didn't someone say the radar was backup? Maybe we'll hear something soon.

Yes, I've been tracking those since 3:45pm. Tornado Warning actually went up for Butler Co., OH at one point but no confirmation yet of any touchdown there.

Any news? Is a tornado touchdown confirmed?

No. Can confirm marble-golfball sized hail across much of the Cincinnati metropolitan area.

I would not be suprized once they update it it go to at least 30 reports.

They may be slow in updating as the station must be overloaded. The only new tornado in that time was the one in Indiana.

[6SpeedTA95]

They've updated the high risk area again it looks like.

[memphisvol]

whats the latest on memphis, are we in the clear yet, or will more be popping up later

[CrazyC83]

The Nashville office is back up; it reported the latest tornado but it is still catching up...

OK...I am a Mobile boy working up in here in Hunstville. This is nuts. I have never dealt with a threat of a "supercell tronado outbreak" on the coast. Today was eerie...students letting out early, patients canceling left and right appointments left and right. The air as thick with moisture and windy as all get out. I keep wondering if the storms are going to be worse near Florence than Huntsville, but who knows. This is a dangerous situation. I am in a hotel in huntsville, guess I am going to be in bathroom if things get bad.

This just in...Tornado working for the county that Florence AL is in. And i just heard that some shelters are opening for the Hunstville area

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

17 tornadoes now reported.

[CrazyC83]

Make that 18. Catching up now.

[CrazyC83]

My guesses for the intensity: Goodlettsville F2 - Gallatin F3 - Ashland City F2

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

Make that 19...
