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

I’ll reread Dr Corfidi’s paper and see
“The Kansas surface low began to fill slightly as it tracked slowly northeastward to near Burlington, Iowa, by 0000 UTC Thursday, 4 April”

Above is from Corfidi’s paper.

So by around 7 PM EST the low was filling gradually as it tracked into Iowa. By that point though the majority of supercells had already fired and convective band two’s tornados were in central And southern KY, TN, and the Alabama event were underway.
 
Secondary low over Memphis. Screams bad for Alabama and Mississippi. Going to dive in on the model in a second
I just saw that 2nd low. 994 to 989. Good Lord!

This looks like it develops a secondary low so this won’t matter
