Back online... looks like Nashville's cleared. Anything else going on that I missed, other than what's in the thread?

Looks like conditions may be coming together for one or two severe cells/super cells in the eastern TX area (according to the SPC). I will be watching for sure!

19+19=48?

48 for this outbreak... 2 more to make it an outbreak?

I'm confused.

Hardly.. A lot of dust being kicked up. Just because it's narrow doesn't mean it isn't damaging. In the last outbreak, there was one tornado track 150 yards long, and 30 yards wide.... rated F2.

Just because it looks small doesn't mean it's not creating significant damage. Looks can be deceiving.

Tornadoes of that size shown in the picture have produced F4 damage.

I caught some brief pictures of damage on Fox News earlier and it looked like an F2 at least. Things weren't completely gone but what they showed had significant damage. There was a lot of debris everywhere.

yeah but you said:

How can it be an outbreak if it is not an outbreak yet?

I am home from work to track storms. Looks like a lot of tornado warnings in MS.

I consider a "major" outbreak to be either 50 tornadoes, or 25 tornadoes with a killer.
