Y’all stay safe down there.

Night tornadoes are the worst.

That Tor prob loop is pretty fast and I can't find that product on Tropical Tidbits.

But is it showing the Tor probability decreasing pretty significantly as the boundary approaches sela?

Tornados of any significance will be in front of the frontal squall line. Do wish the gif was a little slower to catch that evolution.

It already did, even in Scoop's part of Louisiana. The whole line is a result of the boundry between the cold air behind the front and the warm air in front of it.

Dont really have an edge, I love bad weather, I love to track it, talk about it, and observe it. I was just posting a bit of school closure/schedule modification

Looks like the latest HRRR model indicates supercell development around Greater BR at 2-3 AM

Plenty of both to go around. It'll lose the strong tap out of the gulf once the low pulls off to the NE over the next day. A couple of severe bouts is the price we pay to cool off around here.

Here you go:

Look at those supercells ahead of the line. See how they match up with the higher STP values? That's what we're worried about. Interestingly when this line consolidates is important. We could see squall line tornadoes if it waits to consolidate til after it passes, as shown below. If it consolidates earlier, before it reaches here, we would likely see a high speed straight line wind event, which the NWS points out would be similar to April 27th, 2015.

Sounding certainly potent enough to get that spinning, but that should be quickly getting absorbed by the main line by that point at least.

Also, thanks Medic.

Maybe it's the model overlay or my amateur eyes but I sure don't like when that line segment looks like it goes more cellular vs linear between Baton Rouge and Hammond. IMO that would be something to watch and possibly lead toward more tornadic activity vs straight line wind.
