News April 27-29 2014 Southern US Tornado outbreak thread

[Zatnikitelman]

A tornado outbreak is going on right now for the southern United States. I thought I'd start a thread for Orbinauts in the area to check in.
I'm here in Atlanta and we aren't expecting anything for a few hours, and the main show to come in tomorrow. So just sitting, waiting and watching the weather.

Yazoo City got hit again by a big tornado it's looking like.

Thunderstorms coming here in a few minutes. Really high winds earlier today. Haven't seen any alerts about tornadoes for today though. Did see the news last night about 18 people dying from tornadoes including in the northeast corner of Oklahoma.

The University of Oklahoma has been doing a lot to put out information about tornadoes this spring, after what happened to Moore last year. They made maps indicating the safest buildings and they put signs on the entrances to buildings indicating that they aren't so safe in the event of a tornado.
