As it says. I’m a NWS volunteer spotter, our chat has some incredibly humbling pictures of this monster and it’s damage. Praying hard for the folks of Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Tennessee. And Illinois, which was hit by a separate pair of twisters overnight. Mayfield Kentucky is nearly wiped out, down to its foundations directly in the heart of town.
here’s the first, very early story on this thing. Lots to be confirmed but to put this in perspective. The largest , longest traveling and most states hit by a single tornado, stands as the tri-state twister of 1925. It was on the ground for 219 miles total between Missouri, Illinois and Indiana.
All early, unconfirmed indications are that today’s monster was on the ground for 227 miles... in Kentucky ALONE.
