Given these model misses, I wonder how much the administration's recent cuts to high-altitude data is throwing off forecasts https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/surprise-tornadoes-kansas-prompt-concerns-120000008.html

Ladies and gentlemen. First sign convection starting pop up south central Arkansas. Keep eye there

Which one?
You also need to have wider updrafts in this situation given the dry slot aloft and strong shear leading to the tendency for weaker ones to get killed by entrainment. So far away from the boundaries, that has not happened.

I can't tell if that tornado warning for Jacksonville, IL is for the convective mess west of the city or the semi-discrete cell just east of it. Velocity would suggest if anything deserves it it's the latter, but it's already traversed most of the polygon.

Not saying it's the same event whatsoever, but remember the day of Rolling Fork? Everyone and they're brother were yelling bust, until finally all hell broke loose. Will tonight do the same? Who knows. But a long way to go.

Lol I chased it and caught that tornado. Still the scariest storm I’ve ever chased. Right before it went tornado warning, spc dropped from moderate to enhanced

Literally like 5 minutes before it produced, lol.

5:33 CDT and one tornado warning in effect in the entire country...for an absolute blob with no discernible couplet.
Edit: Right as I sent the post, new scan on KILX does have a potentially troublesome couplet pretty near Jacksonville/South Jacksonville, IL!

I think the first storm is about to go east of little rock

It appears to have echo tops just over 30,000 feet according to KNQA (Memphis, TN) radar.

A cell is trying to develop in the Missouri Bootheel headed towards Sikeston.
Hrrr shows convection blowing up in the next hour, we will see if it's true.

Pretty stout supercell west of the Evansville, IN radar.
