Tornado watch issued until 8 PM, but not a PDS.

Yeah,they say a few intense tornadoes likely.

Isn't that the threshold for PDS wording?

Is 80% 1+ sig tor the threshold for PDS then?

Well then. Been a while since the last really high end event... here we go. Mid 70s here with sun breaking out.
Probs on MS watch are intriguing. Pretty sure 90/70 is in the PDS designation. Wonder if that was an oversight.

The VTP is going nuts over west Miss...of course it is still Beta

US Tornados retweeted this on Twitter which may explain why they didn't issue PDS today:

Interesting. I thought it was a strictly percentage-based criterion. Nice to know.

Gets kinda messy between 500-700mb...hence the “S” shaped hodograph.
That is due to the fact that the main 700 mb jet streak hasn't overspread the warm sector yet.

Is it a 1-10 scale like STP?
Yes, looks like that begins to happen around 3pm

Definitely showers breaking out W of Demopolis, but rather clustered at the moment.
will be interesting to see what happens to those as they move north while the shear starts to increase
Well, Its at 13 right now, so I guess not.
