Something to note is per guidance the environment, despite the numerous tornado warned storms, really is not that impressive yet. Parameter space will start to increase substantially by 5-6pm... And especially by 00z.

Well given the underestimation of the surface backing noted in the RAP, SRH is also likely underestimated.

I am listening to thunder here in CO while tracking thunderstorms in the Plains. Howardwick TX has a classic supercell shape; GRLevel3 says it has 3" hail, so hail of 1"- 2.5" likely there. Gray, OK looks like it has had intense rotation recently.
