Tornado Watch

Here we go. 

1:16 AM - Update on the severe thunderstorm, it is now located near Athens and moving East at about 35 mph toward Madison and Huntsville. 

1:21 - And this is on the fringes of the area I usually post updates about on here, but we have a possible tornado that is aiming for the town of Savannah. This tornado warning is for Henderson, McNairy, Chester, Decatur, and Hardin Counties in Tennessee. Hardin County does hug the state line there. 

And actually it only clips the northern part of Savannah, the polygon. It's just that was the town I was most familiar with when I looked at the text of the warning. 

1:30 - That severe thunderstorm warning has been extended, reissued to the East to even parts of Jackson County now, almost all of Madison County included. Potential for damaging wind gusts and quarter-sized hail here. And the environment is one in which a tornado could quickly develop. 

So I'd get into a small interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy house. 

1:33 - Got us another one. From Russellville to Decatur, Priceville, and Hartselle, go ahead and be in a good safe place from potentially damaging winds and large hail. And remember the environment does favor tornadoes tonight. 

1:39 - And things are getting busy. That newest warning that includes Wayne and Lawrence Counties in Tennessee could have wind gusts up to 70 mph and has shown rotation at times, could easily produce a tornado with little or no additional warning. 

So remember - small interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy house (not a mobile home), away from windows. And if you have time, cover your body, especially your head. That could really help you out if there is a tornado in this storm. Which is hard to confirm at night. 

1:52 - Things sure are busy. Lauderdale. Colbert, and Franklin Counties are now blanketed with a new Severe Thunderstorm Warning. TORNADO WARNIGN NEW MARKET NEW POST
