Severe WX Severe Wx Outbreak March 1st- 3rd, 2023 - Southern States, MS/OH/TN Valley

I wish Andrew Brady with the MMFS would do a run centered over Arkansas he's had it on Georgia lately. It did really well on placement on some of the storms last night. Somebody hit him up
 
One wild card I didn't really consider for most of the lead-up to this setup (since it had looked so impressive on a synoptic level, and I didn't really see much of anything firing yesterday due to the main trough being so far off yet) is outflow boundaries from yesterday's storms. May locally enhance low-level shear and/or provide foci for initiation/maintenance of updrafts in the warm sector. I believe SPC already noted that the initial round of hailers was firing along one.
