more cells maturing over North LA with couplets ..one now t-storm warned with TOR possible wording..

 

so now we have the main line back in OK/Tx...the supercells on the OK/AR border ..and now maybe more Sups in north LA

 

I suspect until the main line catches up....the two lines of scattered Sups will continue to produce Possible Tornadoes

Went up rather quickly, definitely rotation on that cell now and also to its east. 

 

Edit;  the one to the east is now Tornado Warned (this one probably isn't far behind)

I read somewhere (maybe SPC) to expect multiple lines in the moderate risk area this evening.

Cell near Georgetown, LA is about to go too.

Weak rotation, strong outbounds are a function of sidelobe contamination. Solid look, but most likely contaminated velocities.

edit - next scan looks legit, and t-warned.

Storms around Kansas City all look interesting 

Supercell near Gardner has some rotation and a definitive hook/notch. On a beeline to go straight through the heart of the metro. Hopefully it doesn't organize any further.

Mesoscale Discussion 0246
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0706 PM CDT Fri Apr 13 2018

   Areas affected...for portions of west-central AR

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 40...

   Valid 140006Z - 140030Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 40 continues.

   SUMMARY...A significant tornado threat may increase and areas
   downstream from the Sevier County tornadic supercell ---including
   Montgomery and Yell counties--- are under an increasing tornado
   risk.

   DISCUSSION...A supercell with a history of tornadic activity over
   southwestern AR and northeast TX will continue to the northeast over
   the next 1-2 hours ahead of a north-northeast to south-southwest
   oriented band of thunderstorms.  The mesoscale environment
   immediately on the inflow side of the supercell is characterized as
   very moist with surface dewpoints around 70 degrees F.  Based on the
   wind profile from the Little Rock (LZK) VAD, around 450 m2/s2 0-1 km
   SRH is present---supportive of low-level mesocyclonegenesis and a
   tornado risk.  Similar thermodynamic profiles were sampled by the
   00Z SHV and LZK raobs (very moist through the troposphere with
   moderate buoyancy, 1600-1900 J/kg MLCAPE).  Given the strong
   low-level shear and ample buoyancy, the tornado risk may continue to
   increase over the next 30 minutes to 1-2 hours before the supercell
   becomes embedded within the eastward-moving convective band from the
   west.
