Reports surfacing that the pilots were talking to company or ATC about severe turbulence shortly before communication was cut off. It seems that weather (turbulence, t-storms) are being raised as potential first clues.

Whatever the case, this is scary stuff. Such a seemingly instantaneous accident like this is a rather rare thing...
