You could combine them all in one post, call it "4/14 tornado news updated [time]." You can do that easily with the Edit function and cut-and-paste. Just an idea....

This monster lifted over Salina, but is back on the ground NE of town again with debris visible.

I know we have other members in this area, I know this is semi normal for the area, however I wanted to put out the warning since the number of these storms is a bit unusual...

No problem, I'm interested myself, just want you (and others) to know that there's an easy way to post multiple updates about any ongoing news story w/o a myriad of new entries.

Wichita has had a hit on the south and southeast sides.

Spirit Aerosystems has damage (BNSF ships Boeing aircraft bodies from here.)

This toradic storm started near Mutual Oklahoma and has produced a large tornado on and off since then, and is still on the ground near the Cassody/Matfield Green area on the BNSF transcon.

Salina is getting ready for round 3 of a tornadic storm today.

One of the fuselages from Spirit Aerosystems seems to have went on a little flight into the Oaklawn neighborhood in south Wichita.

As interesting as the radar captures may be (I've never seen ones like them), I seriously doubt that if any TO subscriber had any such storm evenly remotely threatening their town, they would be here looking for information.
