Near Tupleo, MS. at 00Z. Pretty impressive wind profile, especially in the 0-1KM level, with ML at 1587 J/kg. Gotta watch this tonight early.

3 cape is around 250 good grief that's a spectacle, probably be some amazing low level clouds.

That sounding may be contaminated though the green line is out of the sounding on the left

Multiple discussions already out from SPC:

Reading over those mesoscale discussions and the convective outlooks from SPC, it sounds like this is another one of those setups that will be kind of slow to come together, since the ingredients are all still in different places. We might have a few hours of monitoring non-severe convection in a tornado watch wondering when the heck it's going to intensify. Sometimes these setups never do actually come together, the ingredients all just kind of miss each other and the storms struggle all day and then fizzle out when the sun sets. Other times, the LLJ kicks in, the hodographs enlarge and/or the moisture gets pulled in, or the stronger dynamics arrive, and BOOM, something significant happens.

Something I'd watch for is if these cells in south missippi that'll turn into the storms to watch later, go mainly multicell or supercell it seems bulk shear is right on the fence, could make it a banger or much less so.

complete mess, pretty much what i thought would happen. Keep an eye out for anything further west that has more spacing, but anything that starts to root is going to immediately go through cell mergers.
Lol sounds like a typical southern severe threat. Is the cell mergers due to lack of higher bulk shear and almost a non existent cap?
