How come they haven’t issued a tornado warning?
Could be a lot of reasons, likely not having enough confidence in the meso making it to the ground being the prime reason. But in your case I would absolutely be taking shelter in case it does continue to tighten up.

A D3 Enhanced Risk has been issued for parts of LA, MS, AR and AL for an all-hazards threat.

Just checked parameters in depth for the first time for this timeframe, seen some chatter. Some fairly robust parameters. I'm excited for our first real winter season severe/tornado event.

Yep, D3 Enhanced days are fairly rare and is a strong signal for potential severity of the upcoming system. Really happy they started doing two D3 updates instead of just one.
ME TOO! Hopefully, in the future, they'll do the same thing with the Day 4-8 Outlooks/Discussion. That would really be helpful as well.
