I'm a Bulldog. The cell near Ruston has me worried. I thought it was going to sail SE of the main university and the areas in that part of town where a lot of students live.

The HRRR has had a TERRIBLE handle on this system so far today. That may be significant overnight.

My husband said the same thing (about Ruston), we've actually been there before.

Debris falling from the sky from the tornado in SW Arkansas.

These are tending to be pretty far from radar sites unfortunately. Definitely looks like a significant event underway now, yikes.

Yeah the radar coverage in this part of the world is pretty bad.

CC drop on the new Georgetown, LA storm last 2 scans
I can't wait until they start putting in an operational radar system based on those experimental CASA radars. That would help solve the "radar hole" problem!

Starting to see lots of hook echoes, even far from radar sites.

Georgetown, LA storm is super impressive. There are three very impressive couplets in LA alone.

Storms are starting to get into the moderate area now. >2000 CAPE and 400+ ESRH on mesoanalysis

SPC put out an MD just covering that supercell in SW Arkansas. Not sure I've ever seen that before.

Watching all of this with interest just outside Jackson, MS. Not sure what's forecast for here, but keeping an eye on it.

Very uncommon, I've seen it but not when there's so much else going on at the same time.
There's a lot of small (and poor) communities in that area. I've done a lot of camping along West AR when I lived in Texarkana

Individual supercell MCDs aren't common but I've seen it a few times before, clearly this could be a rather bad situation downstream

Yeah, I certainly wasn't questioning it, obviously it's a storm with a bad history moving into a very favorable environment, I just hadn't seen it before.

Took me a while to get this posted, but Dierks, AR had a near miss from a strong tornado a few minutes ago...
