The Foard county Tx area tornado supercell looks scary. I'm interested to see what comes out of that region when surveys are done. Upper winds over the couplet had EF3+ style speeds. Good thing it's an area sparsely populated.

Re: Moderate Risk, 5/30, Southern Plains
Couple videos from yesterday:
Strong gustnado near Paducah, TX
Lot of dust being blown up causing close to zero visibility near Paducah, TX
Wichita, KS hail storm
Another Wichita hail video
I couldn't find any footage of the Truscott Tornado.
