Is that a record for duration?

Also sounds like sightseers on roads are hampering EMS response to trouble spots.
Spirit AeroSystems Inc. in southeast Wichita may have taken a hit from a large tornado Saturday night, according to the Wichita Business Journal's news partners, KAKE TV.
Anchor Jeff Herndon, reporting from the Spirit complex, says he sees significant building damage, power lines down and vehicle damage.

Doubt it...KSN just said that it has been producing violent tornadoes for the last 6 hours.

Re:
EF-5bigj wrote:All these tornadoes seem to be violent wedge tornadoes the TWC is getting in reports of houses destroyed.
Initial reports are leading me to believe that there has been a lot of damage tonight.
The key will be this: are they destroyed houses like those in Dallas last week (weaker tornadoes, limited injuries, no fatalities); destroyed houses like we saw in Tuscaloosa/Joplin last year (top-end tornadoes, near total destruction, multiple injuries, multiple fatalities); or something in between those two extremes.
EDIT: Just saw my first damage photo...don't know if it is like the rest, but it looked pretty bad in the Wichita area with a fire burning in the background.

Is the third time today the very unlucky charm for Salina? Hard to believe they are being threatened by their third tornadic storm in the past 12 hours.
