What kind of population is near where that hook echo is? Hopefully it doesn't affect anyone.

Nvm that warning picture cleared it up

Yea, plenty of shear and now high theta-e air is surging north out of the Gulf behind the warm front. Hopefully, just a single line pushes through b/c any discrete cells are going to be trouble.

No doubt. I'm concerned the line doesn't really form out until east of me. Basically throwing up supercells that become incorporated into the line.

Just stepped outside, the juice is apparent.

Angola better bunker down by the looks of that cell.

Wonder what the prisoners do during a tornado warning?

Not surprising. Looks to be dumping some decent sized hail. Hail means big updraft... so light show.

Sounding update:

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New Orleans LA
1230 AM CST Sat Jan 21 2017

....SOUNDING DISCUSSION...
The profile has modified from just 6 hrs ago. It is supportive of
a large hail and increasing tornado threat. A low level jet is
developing with winds 30kts from the south by 850 mb. Winds then
veer southwest... 55 kts at 500 mb. Peak wind is 125 kts at 250
mb. Sfc to 6km shear is 60 kts. There is not a significant
inversion aloft and lapse rates are favorable at about 7 C/KM...
leading to an area of most unstable CAPE of 1500 J/KG. Worth
noting that we have fog developing out ahead of the storms and as
such the first 2000 ft are saturated under a weak cap. This will
keep too many showers from developing ahead.

Seeing some light/moderate showers popping up in SE LA. Hopefully they stay shallow until the line really gets here

Looks like very heavy rain and possibly hail is moving into the Morganza, New Roads, St Francisville, The Bluffs, and Angola areas.
