It is possible in the early morning hours in those areas, yes. It is more him saying that the overnight threat is there for tonight, and if storms do develop they could go severe fairly easily and catch people off guard.


The Slight along I20 in N. Louisiana and up into Ark & Miss is mainly for overnight storms that, if discrete in nature, could pose a tornado threat.

GA, SC, and NC baws in the red on Thursday night. OP should probably add these to OP as well.

I would almost bet that the Moderate area will be expanded Southwest. There's little reason not to at this point. I don't think they will bump anywhere to High right now. I imagine the SPC is content to leave the Moderate and do area-based threat guidance as storms unfold. It makes sense with the nature of this setup.

Yep. Looks to be mostly a QLCS threat for them. It will be the best/highest severe/tornado threat they've seen in quite a while.

I added the Convective outlook for Thursday to the OP and updated the thread title.

About that chaser dilemma I mentioned earlier in the thread. They are, as expected, lining up to chase the Deep South. Chasing discreet, or semi-discreet, storms down here is one thing. Chasing a line of storms that has a risk of strong, embedded tornadoes in this terrain is an entirely different prospect. They better choose wisely where they set up, and do some considerable research on the roads in the area. If we end up with cells out front of a legit tornado-producing QLCS they could get into a mess in a hurry.

This isn't one for a novice chaser to dick around with. Though, for you baws who love watching weather drama, it could be gold.

Latest CIPS Analog guidance for severe reports across the area. It is hinting at Southern MS, as well. It will be interesting to see how the Historic Analogs do with this event, as it doesn't have an ideal analog to draw on.

So I live in GA just east of where the first map's enhanced zone ends and just west of where the second map's enhanced zone begins. Lucky me...

New Day 2 Convective outlook. Moderate risk has been expanded southwest.

That just means you jumped time, baw. You're between the timeframes of both outlooks. It could go either way for you.

This is one of the biggest moderate risks I can recall seeing in the southeast in a while.

Makes damn good sense. That SW MS area looks primed right now.

Definitely a nod to the complex setup.

Even the "badass" who started the Twitter shitshow a few days ago has changed his tune about where he will chase:

quote:

Gonna try to give the MS Delta a shot tomorrow. Originally wanted to position further east but want to give the better terrain a shot given its position on the western edge of the LLJ maxima and signs of clearing in E AR from latest HRRR and WRFs. It's trial and error every time.


This is the same guy who said just yesterday that his "favorite terrain to chase" is Southern AL.

It's the largest MOD since they started issuing MODs in 2014.
