I feel like they’re way looser these days on the parameters for a PDS than they used to be


Well, given the storm environment and structure already seen today I would say the PDS wording is spot on...

Current MLCAPE




EHI

The Energy Helicity Index (EHI) is a number which represents the combination of instability and storm relative helicity. Our calculation uses mixed layer CAPE (surface to 3000ft average parcel) and 0-3 km storm relative helicity. Values greater than 2 or 3 have been correlated to cyclonic supercells with increased tornadic potential. Negative values are indicative of an environment favorable for anti-cyclonic (left moving) supercells, but tornadoes associated with anti-cyclonic supercells are extremely rare.

Modeled soundings verified on CAPE this time. If anything, they undershot it a bit.
