Another insane outbreak in the Southeast today.



One thing that caught my eye was the tornadic storm that went through Tuscaloosa and north of the town of Brookwood. Here are some radar pics of the storm at that time. The amazing part, at 530PM it actually had an "eye" on velocity of just under 1 mile wide where no wind was being picked up at all by radar. While spotters and surveyors will be able to get into the specifics, this would possibly mean that the tornado was well over 1 mile in width.
