Not over yet:
PUBLIC SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0830 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014
...Outbreak of tornadoes and severe thunderstorms expected over
parts of the Ozarks and surrounding areas overnight...
* LOCATIONS...
Much of Arkansas
* HAZARDS...
Numerous tornadoes, several intense and long track
Widespread large hail, some baseball size
Isolated damaging winds
* SUMMARY...
Widespread severe thunderstorms will continue to affect a large
portion of the central U.S. this evening and into the overnight
hours -- with the risk for large hail and damaging winds along
with several tornadoes. The area of the greatest risk for severe
weather -- including a couple of strong to possibly violent
tornadoes -- will remain centered on Arkansas.
Preparedness actions...
Tornadoes at night can be particularly dangerous because they
are usually fast-moving and difficult to see. Stay tuned to
NOAA Weather Radio, weather.gov, or other media for watches and
warnings. A tornado watch means that conditions are favorable
for tornadoes to form during the next several hours. If a tornado
warning is issued for your area, move to a place of safety,
ideally in a basement or interior room on the lowest floor of a
sturdy building.

WOW!
That's the kind of picture you'd see in a textbook.

@MichaelPageWx: Arkansas Update: PD requesting at least a dozen ambulances to Vilonia. Extensive tornado damage there- sobering video flowing into newsroom.

My folks in Gravel Ridge are reporting that a Natural Gas plant has either exploded or suffered a massive leak. Police/firetrucks are evacuating people block by block.

This storm could go for 100 miles. It keeps recycling.

Keep in mind CASUALTIES DOESN'T MEAN DEATHS, IT MEANS INJURIES

It's still over 80 degrees, slightly cloudy, no wind or rain, and is generally A very good day overall, except that it was at 98 for awhile.

Its so weird how the same towns seem to get hit time and time again. There are a few towns like that in Arkansas that always seem to get it, then others that never get hit.
