10% significant tornado threat for extreme southeast KS, northeast OK, southwest MO (includes Joplin and Springfield). Also watch the intense bowing MCS that will cause a lot of wind damage into the TN/lower Ohio Valley. This has already started off as a very active day and will continue with a heightened tornado risk later.
 
Chaser talk has been identifying Joplin, Mo as the best target. Large hail appears to be a bigger threat.
From Severe weather thread.
Joplin, of all places...

2:42 PM CST EDIT: Tornado Watch is now up.

Looks like the CAP has broken. SVR warned storms (8?) lined up from OKC to the extreme SE corner of Kansas. No TOR activity as of yet. I am seeing tweets of a few rotating cells but no funnels associated with them.
