Severe WX Severe Weather Threat 3/14-3/16

21z HRRR run (uploaded 14z by accident just a second ago) View attachment 35610
Hi-

I’ve posted off an and and lurked forever so don’t take this as a dumb question

But to me this looks very messy in the high risk area with most of the convection prog’d in N AL/MS & TN

Assuming the cells south of meridian MS would be what’s to cause the problems across C AL?

I just keep expecting to see a cleaner look on the sim radar but maybe that’s just overestimating on my end?
 
Bit of an aside from tonight's threat, but looking forward to tomorrow morning, the HRRR has a shortwave ridge over the northern half of the warm sector. Will induce slight subsidence which is likely to at least somewhat limit convective coverage in the warm sector. As has been the common theme with this sequence... not good.

Ah yes , Trey mentioned this ridge also in his discussion.

This run is for tonight
 
Even if tomorrow was somehow never in play, the combination of events that are either currently ongoing or are expected to happen later tonight could easily make tonight a memorable one by themselves. We've got (potentially) tornadic storms, dust storms, wildfires, etc.!

Just some food for thought...
 
Tornado likely imminent near Nixa, MO - shear is stronger on each scan.
The rather large dewpoint spread in that area would likely put a crimp on the tornado threat from that cell, at least for some time anyway (knock on wood!).
 
I've been watching the storms in Lousianna, usually you see a uptick in lighting with the strengthening mesocyclone/updraft nothing yet, few rumbles here and there but not drastic increase. it's got a anvil on both storms though.
