Johnny Rolands is a bad ass...

He really is. I usually watch NBC for severe coverage, but Johnny has been getting some amazing shots this severe weather season. Plus he's an icon in the city.

Orrick got hit hard.

Yeah that ain't no shit.

Looks like it is getting wound up again just northeast of Lexington Missouri

Just missed my house to the northeast. (whew)

Boonville and Columbia watch your ass in about an hour. It's coming your way. I just took some pictures of the sky over my house. Both of these are looking due north from my front porch in Independence. And one picture of Mama Cat in the window, wondering what I'm doing out in the front yard with a camera.

While you guys are getting severe storms, we're predicted to get 4-9" of snow in the next 36 hours. Weird weather.

(Not in any way trying to compare the severity of our storm to yours though. Hope there aren't many injuries.)

Looks like it's all north of us (Jeff city/central Mo.) with a second front moving in later...

It looks like you are going to get hit --awesome photos

Nice mammatus you have there GB

or as my kid calls them 'boob clouds'
