Parents are fine. Brothers house looks to be along the path although he said it’s not too awful yet
Oh, I agree. Doesn't stop some ppl from thinking that tornadoes are afraid of hills. hear that out this way all the time.
Not a good situation unfolding here. Circulation ramping up...clear debris ball, moving into a more populated area
My friends in Newnan are all ok but sounds like a pretty hard hit. My family in Tyrone are all ok. I'm on other side of Coweta and things didn't get too bad here.
To add to earlier discussion.. When in the direct line of nasty storm, didn't miss that 10 bucks I'm paying for radar scope one bit.
The rumor here is Newnan High School is "gone." I guess we'll see in the morning. Thank god it didn't hit during the day. It has 2500 students.
I saw this cloud a few weeks ago south of OKC. Hadn't ever seen anything like it before. Like a rogue thunderhead. Any pros or amateurs in here know the name of something like this? It's a panorama and the black line was a power line.
Just had one of the most insane lightning storms I’ve ever been a part of in Atlanta. Everything coming out of Newnan sounds really bad. What an awful 24 hours for the southeast.

So far there are no deaths reported in Newnan. Amazing. Significant damage to the hs and a lot of people lost everything.
I think at one point he was talking about a storm taking the exact same track of some storm on Palm Sunday in like 1972. Incredible that he has that knowledge committed to memory. But his ability to tell you down to almost the exact local landmark just makes him invaluable. Saw this last night, and it's so true. He did make one mistake. Said Eutaw was the population center of Hale County. It was early in the day. I'll cut him some slack.
This is video from the aftermath of the Birmingham tornado at Shoal Creek. A course that has held two major championship
Not sure if this has been shared yet, I could do without the chasers screaming violent tornado every time they film a tornado, but alas
