True Color RGB images from @NOAASatellites #GOES16/#GOESeast showed large plumes of blowing #dust across parts of New Mexico, Texas ad Oklahoma on 22 Feb: geosphere.ssec.wisc.edu/#playing:true;…; Note the brighter white plume originating from White Sands NM. #NMwx #TXwx #OKwx
...and here's a comparison of the blowing dust plumes as viewed using True Color RGB images from 3 satellites - @NOAASatellites #GOES18/#GOESwest, #GOES17 and #GOES16/#GOESeast: cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-blog… #NMwx #TXwx #OKwx 
This morning, evidence of the airborne dust (shades of tan) from NM/TX/OK could be seen in @NOAASatellites #GOES16/#GOESeast True Color RGB images over parts of #ILwx/#INwx/#OHwx/#MIwx/#KYwx: geosphere.ssec.wisc.edu/#playing:true;…;
1/Rand Paul was PA born, TX raised, and groomed to take a Kentuckians job. KY elected Paul to the US Senate in 2011. Before passing a single piece of legislation to benefit Kentuckians, Senator Paul used his position to run for President in 2016. #Paulsnot4KY #RandPaul #Kentucky
2/#Rand Paul pretends to live in Kentucky. The average home 🏡 size in KY is 1,750 sq. ft. He really lives in 6,000 sq. ft. Pittsburgh luxury villa with 6 Bedrooms, 5 baths and a pool. #Paulsnot4KY #Kentucky @winchestersun #fancyfarm
3/Rand Paul was never a Kentucky Wildcat, Cardinal, Hilltopper, or Colonel. Paul paid tuition to be a Duke Blue Devil with Christian Laettner. #Paulsnot4KY #RandPaul #BBN #GoCards @WKUSports #GoBigE #waddy
Early Sunday morning, crews restored power to local power company connection points near Glasgow, KY, and Lexington, TN. Devastating tornados caused widespread damage in portions of western Kentucky, and middle Tennessee early Saturday morning. /1
Our crews, along with local power company crews working 24/7, continue to make progress on the restoration process.
Overall damage assessments are expected to be completed today. However, due to the amount of damage in some locations, restoration may be a long process. /2

As of Sunday morning:
-More than 30 TVA transmission lines are down
-17 customer connection points are without service, mainly in Kentucky
-At least 97 TVA power structures (towers and poles) are damaged. /3

Still nothing standing in the way of this supercell producing a strong to violent tornado for the forseeable future, though low-level instability starts waning a bit as you approach the I-69 corridor.
Either way, if you're in the storm's path (even if not warned yet), be ready.

SPC is clearly on the same page with a new MD saying that this storm could remain at or near this intensity (producing a strong to violent tornado) for *at least* another HOUR #KYwx
An hour later and there's still plenty of creme-de-la-creme environment left to go as warm air advection keeps expanding the warm sector northeast.
Eventually the storm will run into colder more stable air or be undercut by outflow from the W, but it seems like that's a ways off
