This is the closest thing I've seen to a livestream of the zombie apocalypse.

#blueshed is going to be the next Harambe.
We are witnessing the birth of a new meme tonight. It's kind of breathtaking in a way.

EDIT: Wow, that didn't take long.

Walmarts honestly tend to be pretty sturdy, from what I can recall. Forget if there was an explicit reason behind it or not, though...

Any case, some of the chasers have apparently been reporting the signs of what could be a shitton of minor tornadoes near the eye. Trees ripped apart by rotational force, stuff like that.

E: Any case, I'm... probably going to shut things off for the night. Getting close to midnight, and from what the forecasts are showing that storm's going to be right about exactly where it is for at least the next four or five days. End up killing yourself if you try to keep up with it too hard :-\

My god, this WalMart is surrounded by danger. Tiny heavy objects everywhere.

I wonder what material that blue shed is made of. Having a low profile probably helps too.

The house that the woman freaking out said blew up sounds like something that a tornado would do.

Hah. Some truck driver was riding out the storm in his truck.

Sirius would be proud.

Ah. Though yeah, last check before I stop, it does look like they've confirmed tornado damage under the storm's coverage.

Bloody hell, but the fact that all this is probably going to be the least damaging part of what the storm's about to do is a bastard of a thing..

Again, last words were "it's really bad". Jeff Piotrowski spits on the gods of narrative determinism.

Assuming he makes it through this, he's going to be on every major national morning news program for the next two weeks.

@JeffPiotrowski & #BlueShed -- the heroes we need, not the heroes we deserve.


Need a picture with the caption "Nevertheless, shed persisted."  :P

Indeed.

He said the WalMart was "compromised" but refused to elaborate except for that the roof is coming off and the spot where the vending machine is supposed to be is just empty.

Edit: Even he's freaking out now. This is going to be one of those storms people talk about for years, I think.

Massive gas leaks, such that the air everywhere smells like it.
