What is up with this severe outbreak over the past two days I don't know if I was just under a rock or something but this seemed to overperform big time.

It wasn't just you.  Thread in central/western forum yesterday about MS very low user count as it was ongoing

keep an eye on Dallas metro today for another sneaky event

 

I actually hate high hyped day threads..too many busts calls at 1pm

Looks like they’re finally loosening up. They both traveled a solid 20-30 miles before weakening though. Curious to see the damage reports. There’s not much for structures in their paths. Mainly just timberland and national forest.

CAPE has came in much higher than originally anticipated. Heck at my house it's currently 90 with a dew of 68. Helicity is alright, but a fairly low LCL, decent shear and tons of energy are letting these things breathe and put down some damn good storms.
