A fresh wave of tornadoes ripped through southwest Kansas on Saturday evening, a day after a tornado all but destroyed this town, killing nine and injuring dozens more. The National Weather Service said it had received reports "well into the double digits" of twisters touching down in six counties.

Here's the "Weather Underground" "US Severe Weather Map":

(large red boxes are tornado watches, small red patches are tornado warnings)

Are those nasty storms going to dissipate before they reach the Great Lakes?

Coincidently the red boxes together look like a tornado...

Not that I actually know what I'm talking about, but since the sun's gone down I'm going to guess so.

Here's a radar-based image (annotations of "MESO", as I understand it, represent very early phases of the development of tornados):

It’s probably going to get worse tomorrow. We had snow last night and the cold winds have been blowing through here very hard this afternoon. Some gusts were up to 60 mph. The clouds that passed through this afternoon looked very ominous. The extreme temperature along with that wind make for a bad situation. Prayers for all who are in the path of these tornadoes!

This is the best weather site on the net. Just click on the state that you want to check on the weather. It's showing a lot of tornado boxes.

Did tornadoes hit the same town twice? How horrible if so. Has this ever happened before?

LOL! Good ole Algore. What a moron. It snowed last night here in NM, and we're under a winter storm warning for tonight too. We had a couple of inches on the ground this morning, and it's horribly cold here now.
