Severe Weather - March 25-28 - Mid/Deep South/OH Riv Valley

[Dave]

If warnings start to come too fast, we could limit them to the stronger-worded warnings, those involving larger population centers and those involving our members.

If they start coming faster I'm going to tornado warnings only + member areas.

[CrazyC83]

At 0100Z, I can see them bumping the tornado threat to 15% (right now it is 10% and hatched, the MDT is for wind).

WNCT is learning more about severe storms and possible tornadoes that are making their way across the east.

Pitt County Officials are trying to determine whether a tornado touched down on Firetower Road in Winterville between Charles Boulevard and Evans Street.

Our photojournalist Kenneth Roundtree is on the scene there. He tells us there are downed power lines and trees in and around the Ashcroft neighborhood and First South Bank near Corey Road. He sees roof damage to homes in that neighborhood, fences blown over and debris scattered throughout the area.

A tornado warning for the entire county has been lifted. Details Here

Nine on your side has crews on locations across the area.

We will bring you the latest tonight at 10 on the CW and after the games on WNCT.

On another board, it mentioned that the LLJ is expected to reach 55 kt overnight. That would create an additional threat for strong to violent tornadoes.

[KWT]

55kts would certainly be enough to give a real risk of violent tornadoes, that needs to be watched as it could cause a peak of tornado actvity over the next 6-9hrs, esp given we do have storms already established.
