Thanks for all of the great comments. It was an amazing storm, one of the best I've seen to date. It is unfortunate it caused so much damage, but with a tornado that size it is nearly unavoidable.

any classification yet on this one? Can't seem to get one yet from KTTC or Fox 47

@dulamel305 The tornado near Alden was rated an EF-4. The one near Hollandale was rated an EF-3.
