Got out of the Grizz game and the flood gates opened up on the way home. That wind pushing around my Hummer was like I was in a matchbox toy car or something, but it was all well worth it. Saying it's going to get bad again today/tonight..Keep a eye on the sky and stay safe VN.

Pretty much this exactly for Oakland. Then again, I am only a few miles southeast of Brighton.

My grass is going to be a foot tall before I get to cut it again.

Mid-town Jackson, around the Hospital, got hit pretty good. Trees and power lines down.

Going to be interesting this afternoon and tonight in East Arky, West TN, North Mississippi, and parts of Middle TN.

If the sun stays in, I don't expect to see as intense storms as they had in Central Arky. If the sun comes out and heats up the atmosphere, then we could be in for a heck of a night. Any strong winds will cause more trees to fall. The ground is too saturated

Is a front supposed to develop today because I don't see anything behind what's in middle TN right now.

There is a trough pushing east through Middle Tn with that disturbance.

The cold front runs from just west of St. Louis down through Central Arky and into East Texas. That front is moving at a snails pace to the east. As the atmosphere heats this evening, supercells will begin to build in Central Arky, Texas, and Louisiana. Those cells will move east again this evening, into East Arky, South Mo., West TN, North Miss.. The should again form a good squall line that will have some high winds, hail, and isolated Tornadoes. South Central Arky, from Little Rock to the Louisiana border will see the greatest threat for Tornadoes this afternoon and evening. That will shift east into tonight

Dr. Forbes has issued a Torcon 9. Never seen anything higher than 7. Anytime they outline the greatest threat area in white, its on like donkey kong.

Ummm, almost all sun here in the Memphis-metro area. Getting warm. Breezy, but the sun is heating things up.

I've never seen the white warning level like is currently on the front page of weather.com.

If you live in Arkansas - run.

From the weather channel site:

While a few severe thunderstorms are possible from the eastern Great Lakes to the southern Appalachians, the main event will explode from eastern Oklahoma and northeast Texas later today into the lower Ohio Valley, western Tennessee and Mississippi overnight. - A dynamic disturbance moving through the Rocky Mountain States along a strong jet stream moves into the southern Plains and northern Texas later this afternoon.

- Severe thunderstorms are expected to erupt ahead of the disturbance in the Ark-La-Tex (northeast Texas, southeast Oklahoma, southwest Arkansas and northwest Louisiana) late this afternoon and this evening.

- Strong tornadoes and very large hail are possible in the initial storms.

- During the evening the threat moves through southern and eastern Arkansas, northern Louisiana, northwest Mississippi and western Tennessee.

- Tornadoes and large hail are possible well into the evening hours.

- Overnight the storms are expected to form into a squall line as they move into central Tennessee, northern Alabama and Kentucky.

- As the storms form into a squall line the main threat shifts to damaging straight line winds, although hail and an isolated tornado are still possible.

- Another threat from the storms today and tonight is very heavy rainfall.

- Totals of 3 to 5 inches are possible from central Arkansas to southwest Ohio and the western and central counties of Kentucky and Tennessee.

- Additional storminess Wednesday could produce totals of 4 to 10 inches.

- That rain falls on areas that are extremely wet and already experiencing flooding.

- Several rivers could reach record flood levels later this week.

- Midweek, severe thunderstorms will continue or redevelop from the eastern Great Lakes to the northern Gulf Coast. The core of the severe/tornado outbreak Thursday will center across Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama and northwest Georgia. Long-track tornadoes, destructive wind gusts and hail are all possible, along with more heavy rain.

Stay tuned to The Weather Channel or log onto weather.com for the latest on the storm.

I may hate the way the plateau can kill a good snowstorm in the winter, but I absolutely love how it seems to kill these storms before they get to east TN this time of year.
