Two people killed in #AL as #tornadoes rip through Southern states #LA #MS AL #AR #TX #TN #KY were under watches last night.

Storm and extreme cold causing #outage s in #TX (50-75K customers without power), #AR (22K), #MS (12K), #TN (136K; 118K in and around Memphis), #KY (10K), #OH (20K).
For most of those, these are not particularly high numbers, but if you see them on a map, you see a diagonal line across the country.

Winter weather, Winter storm, and wind chill alerts for parts of #NE, #KS, #MO, #IL, #IA. The alerts I received go right up to the state borders of #OK and #AR, so I expect there are other alerts valid for those areas.
Includes snow, mixed precipitation, wind, ice, extreme cold (-30F / -34C in central Nebraska), with extreme wind chills being mostly across the Northern part of the area. #NOAA / #NWS has sent at least 20 alerts since 04:00 Eastern (03:00 Central). Weather begins this afternoon / evening and continues through Saturday, possibly into Sunday in some areas.
If you're in the middle of the US, take proper care. This weather can kill, either directly or by causing traffic collisions.

S told me that her friends are going to some kind of seminar to learn how to make "Metaverse Art". I'm not sure whether #Metaverse art is "in game purchases" for #VR & #AR or #NFTs (non-fungible #cryptocurrency tokens).
Maybe I shouldn't have been, I was surprised that the seminar industry is that up-to-date. I remember when they had seminars for things like pay phones, arcade games, and "non-profit vending machines" (vending machines where a cut of the profits are pledged to support particular non-profit organizations).

There was a storm that swept through #MO last night, so I got notices for tornado watches, then severe thunderstorm warnings, then tornado warnings, then as the storm moved out of the area, watch cancellations.
(Some of those alerts overlapped neighboring states of #KS, #AR, #IL.)
AFAIK, no damage to the areas where the kids live.

According to the Weather Channel, there were up to eight #tornadoes last night in #MO, one possible #tornado in #IL, and heavy hail in #AR. So far, no reports of deaths.

@geniusmusing @storm Also, as I mentioned to my brother, even Arkansas has raised its minimum wage (currently $11.00/hour). I haven’t really been there (accidentally drove across the state border from #MO once), but my impression is that it is one of the poorer states. If #AR can do it, then probably only MS, AL, TN, KY, and WV could honestly say they don’t think they can afford it. That means states like IN and OH can just shut up and raise minwage themselves instead of waiting in dread for the feds to do it.

This must be what @musicman was talking about recently. https://nu.federati.net/url/279454
#Apple possibly getting into the #VR / #AR market with their own headset.
If @guizzy suddenly adopts iDevices and Macs, I’ll know, even if he denies it.

Some severe #t-storms coming through parts of #KS and #MO tonight. Also #IL. I have no information about storms in #NE, #IA, #AR, or #OK.
So far, I've seen no tornado alerts, but #NOAA / #NWS is pumping out severe thunderstorm, flash flooding, and minor river / stream flooding alerts this evening.

60F and #t-storms in Bentonville, #AR. 19:45 there. Accuweather doesn't show any alerts, so I guess that's all it is.

There are watches and warnings for severe #t-storms and #tornadoes across most of eastern #KS and most of #MO. Probably parts of #OK, #AR, #NE, #IA, #IL, too. #NOAA / #NWS

My image of Bentonville, #AR, is probably exaggerated. I think of a #Walmart store, distribution center, or office building on every corner of the central part of town, with a Walmart airport nearby and row after row of tidy Walmart employee houses around the perimeter. With some sort of forest growing right up to the edge of town and three or four highways leading into / out of town.
I know that's likely to be be really inaccurate, like imagining a zillion Wendy's quickserve restaurants in Dublin, #OH, because that's where their HQ is, or at least it used to be there. (I've actually been to Dublin, Ohio, so I know that is not true.)
