I'm actuall more concerned with this cell that's closing in on Wabash, IN . . . far more impressive on velocity, IMO.

Great wall-to-wall coverage via online stream with WAFF-48 out of Huntsville, Alabama. If you like storms, you'll like this even if it's not in your area.

Back down in KY, this has been impressive for some 20 minutes now (Nappanee distracted me from showing this earlier). This radar image is from 02:40z, as right now it's too close to the Louisville radar to give a good presentation on reflectivity or velocity - and yes, that means its passing somewhat close to the southern edge of the city.

As long as people live in a box constructed of aluminum foil and fiberglass insulation, they will continue to be obliterated by weak tornadoes that a site-built house would survive.
Nothing is going to withstand an EF-5 twister except a hole in the ground. But we should be prepared to withstand storms up to EF-1 strength.
Hasn't anyone read the THREE LITTLE PIGS ?!?!?!

And to regress a little bit, back in souther KY, the tornado (or apparent tornado, if you will) that first became apparent in Calloway County near the state line, and was confirmed near Trigg County is still looking fairly impressive from both the Nashville and Louisville domes. It's tracked about 110 nm so far.
