Wow! those photos sure demonstrate the power of those storms.  Incredible stuff.  So sad they hit at night which i guess is one contributing factor to the number of injuries and fatalaties.

I believe a few of these tornadoes will likely end up as F4 or even F5 following offical damage surveys - by their appearance alone, quite frankly, I would not be the least surprised.

Hi Jeff,  is that one of the links above or a different one?

[edit - I just found the link. Was the house still standing I wonder?]

Also that footage of the Barggadochio tornado is just incredible - what amazing contrast! That is up there with the Andover KS footage
