Not much has changed from my thinking last night. Below is the tornado threat from the latest SPC update. For MS, they've made it more along the threat area I outlined here yesterday but expanded a little more north to go up into NE MS. They also now have all of western AL.
An ongoing QLCS is pushing towards the state. This will be capable of some severe storms and maybe a brief tornado in the western part of the state this morning. However, as daytime heating increases instability this afternoon, the line is expected to intensify once it approaches the eastern part of the state. Wind profiles for this storm are very impressive with long curved hodographs. This will allow the severe storms to form and maintain rotation. What will help mitigate the tornado threat is that storm mode will be linear in nature. The areas to watch will be with any semi-discrete cells that may form ahead of the line and the northern edge of line segments within the line. Those will be the most favored areas for tornado development. That's not to say you can't get tornadoes in the middle of a line segment because you can. If your radar app only has reflectivity then look for little upward pointing hooks on the line if in the middle of the segment.
All in all this doesn't appear to be a major event, but could be widespread wind with a few isolated tornadoes just due to the amount of wind shear available. Looks to be pushing out of MS by early afternoon. If storms look to be significant as they approach eastern MS I'll be out chasing around the golden triangle area.

Here in Madison, MS, we just had some moderate Rain and a couple of minor wind gusts (20/25mph). Thankfully it was nothing major by any estimation.
. I think the weather event is over here. Conditions should improve as the day goes along.

Now a 60% of a tornado watch being issued for extreme east MS and west AL. Looks like most of MS will escape the severe threat.

So far the storm has been unable to get its act together. Just pushed through Starkville and will be in AL shortly. May be able to do something there as a tornado watch was just issued for west AL.

We just got a tiny bit of rain maybe a tenth of an inch and 15-20 winds and that was it, here in jones county.

It's just raining lightly here... Nothing spooky, yet.
Check your PMs...

For the record, it was an "interesting" flight from Nashville to Nola. And my family lost power in Sumner county tn as I was taking off. All good now though.

From conversations on our team chat page there were no storm or damage reports today so good news all around. It stayed with providing just a little needed rain.

We had a quarter inch of rain, and only one clap of thunder. It was pretty much a non-event. Been really windy all day though, and the temperature has dropped 10 degrees or so.

Just rain in this one. Maybe keep an eye on next Friday, though. Models all over the place but some are trying to bring in a severe threat to the region. SPC mentioned it in their outlook this morning.

Looks like tomorow is a good bye weekend with rain expected.
How long's it been since we had a rainy home game, or a cold game? Quite some time I think.
