Yeah i was just going to point that out. But you never know. It could be a ugly day or it could be a bust

The ingredients are currently in place. All we can do right now is try to guess what recipe the atmosphere will use them for (a bust day, tornado outbreak, a linear windstorm, a bunch of hail-makers, etc.), but ultimately, that decision is the atmosphere's and the atmosphere's alone.

It seems like the ingredients are getting more and more intense every hour. Guys i know i’m saying this a lot. But this really could get bad if it really does get organized

This isn't the watch for the MDT area. They just put out a MD for that area.

This setup is like Eerie similar to The 2013 Moore Outbreak. A moderate risk being issued without a PDS watch. and yet an EF5 formed without a PDS watch, we definitely know strong/a few intense tornadoes are likely, but this just reminds me of that outbreak. Plus the risk for tornadoes was lower in the Moore outbreak, at 10 percent SIG, and this is 15 percent SIG, obvi the cape values were different probably, but the risk outlook just reminds me of ir

Activity is already going upscale and/or quasi-linear. Clearly, the mid-level flow is largely parallel to the boundary, so mergers are already taking place on NEXRAD. Some bowing is also evident with the relatively “discrete” activity thus far. The best parameters for SIGTOR are highly localised and ephemeral at best.
