The images below and above were 15 minutes apart today. It is easy to discern from the two images they are the same system. In the image above it is noted the origins of the system disaffecting North America has its origins in Indonesia. Literally, the water vapor of the jungles of Indonesia are being robbed in a heat transfer system that crosses NA and meets with an arctic air mass that is causing the tornadic systems we are witnessing.
It is not a conspiracy theory. The people of the USA brought this on themselves through their poor choices in leadership over the last 30 years.
Let's hope the choice of President Obama is a permanent change in direction for the USA, if the courts of the world and the Leahy Senate investigation has their way, it will be an enforceable change for time unending. There is NO treating Human Induced Global Warming as a 'political ideology' anymore. It is and has been very real and there are measures to take to change its course. The USA needs to deal with itself. There is only marking the miracle of the Obama Administration on the historic timeline and going forward from here. Change has to come and we need to pursue it with vigor. No more 'retreating' into 'what feels good.'

The reason the weather remains so turbulent is the chronic mix of two 'air mass' fronts. Arctic air that is chronically displaced off the pole and the 'heat transfer' of the equator that actually begins in the Pacific.
Severe Storm Threat Sunday Evening (click here)
Updated: Sunday, March 08, 2009 3:48 PM
An outbreak of severe thunderstorms unfolded from west to east over the Midwest on Sunday as an instigating low pressure cut across Illinois. The axis of strongest storms, some severe, reached from central Indiana to western Kentucky as of mid-afternoon.
On Sunday evening, with the parent storm rolling through southern Michigan, there will still be some strong and gusty thunderstorms sweeping eastward over central and southern Ohio through Kentucky into Tennessee and western West Virginia.
The strongest of these early nighttime storms will threaten with damaging winds and isolated large hail. A tornado or two cannot be ruled out.
Late at night, thunderstorms will dissipate.
The density of the 'ground cloud' is not reflective of its vorticity. It simply means the dirt/soil hasn't been displaced into the funnel circulation yet. It is a very active season we are witnessing that started at the end of January. There were also tornadoes on Friday.

Hutchinson, Kansas
Photographer states :: This is our first storm of the year. As you can see, a weak tornado touched down just west of South Hutchinson. It is interesting how they form from the ground up like this.
