I see that too. Some parts anyway. Down around Maysville Kentucky looks to get the worst of it. Cincy Metro portion appears to be weakening but still packing a punch.

My guess is they will issue isolated areas of severe thunderstorm warnings within the blanket SWS

I’m gearing up to go outside and check it out.

Pretty much a nothing burger here. Best part I think is that Maysville-Morehead sector. 
just got some heavy rain. A tiny bit of thunder and that’s it. The rain is even letting up already.

SPC thinking next round of storms being to form in the next hour or two back in Missouri.

   0136 PM CDT Sun May 26 2024

   Areas affected...far southeast Kansas into southwest Missouri

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 261836Z - 262100Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

   SUMMARY...Storm producing very large hail and a few tornadoes may
   develop in the next 2 hours into southwest Missouri and vicinity.

   DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows a low close to the KS/OK/MO
   tri-state area, where cumulus fields continue to deepen. This region
   is just ahead of a developing cold front with a deep layer of
   moisture convergence, and just north of a steep low-level lapse rate
   plume over eastern OK. 

   Given the steep lapse rates aloft and continued heating near the
   surface low and front, storms may form within 1-2 hours here. Both
   instability and wind profiles favor supercells producing very large
   hail, and, a tornado risk will likely increase as storms proceed
   east into a more favorable low-level shear environment.

I am thinking this may be a bust today. Very welcomed if it happens. 

I still think we need to watch how the next few hours unfold and how far north the line sets up. HRRR still struggling with the current system, it doesn’t have it moving out of my area until 5 and it’s basically done raining here already.

Models have definitely been struggling with today it seems. Will be a nowcast kind of night I’m thinking

This is a damn nice storm. Would be better with thunder and lightning but very heavy rain and strong winds.

Ditto here. Nice strong bursts.

Not surprised on the upgrade. There’s a brief couple hour window of discrete activity showing on several models before things go linear quickly. Will be interesting to see how long they can stay discrete.

   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0238 PM CDT Sun May 26 2024

   Areas affected...from parts of southern and southeast Missouri into
   far northeast Arkansas...southern Illinois...and across the Missouri
   Bootheel and surrounding areas

   Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely 

   Valid 261938Z - 262215Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

   SUMMARY...A strong tornado situation appears to be developing for
   later this afternoon and into the early evening. In addition, very
   large hail and eventual significant damaging winds may develop
   across the region.

   DISCUSSION...Satellite imagery shows heating and rapid air mass
   recovery across southeast MO, where boundary layer clouds are
   developing, and, satellite derived PWAT indicates ample moisture.
   This is ahead of a cold front which is currently northwest of St.
   Louis and extends into southeast KS near a weak low. Surface
   observations show a very moist air mass with mid 70s F dewpoints
   spreading north out of AR, MS, and western TN as well, just south of
   the old/dissipating outflow boundary. 

   A special 18Z LZK sounding shows strong shear, steep midlevel lapse
   rates and ample moisture. A capping inversion exits just above 850
   mb, however, much less capping exists farther north into MO where
   lift will be increasing ahead of the surface trough. Forecast
   soundings across this region strong favor tornadic supercells as
   well, along with very large hail. Depending on storm mode later this
   evening, widespread damaging winds could also materialize.

   As such, the 20Z outlook will be upgraded to MODERATE RISK for the
   developing situation.

Latest from ILN.

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
Strong to severe thunderstorms that have developed in a moist
and unstable regime in the vicinity of a warm front are pushing
northeast across the area. Large scale forcing coupled with
mesoscale elements have resulted in the severe weather threat
that has necessitated Severe Thunderstorm Watch #316 to be in
effect through 8pm. Severe weather should be relatively brief
at any particular location due to the narrow width of the line
of thunderstorms. Main threat has been straight line winds.
Still monitoring for isolated tornado formation as well.

Once the warm front moves northeast, an unstable airmass will
remain in place, followed by a cold front extending from the low
over Michigan. A broad area should experience additional
showers and thunderstorms this evening and into the overnight
hours, mainly over southern locations. Some strong to severe
storms will still be possible, though surface based instability
will be at a diurnal minimum. Heavy downpours leading to
localized flooding will also be possible.

All locations will see mild low temperatures in the 60s.

Not surprised at the brief T warning since it looked like part of an MCV(comma-head). IMBY I witnessed some interesting erratic wind driven rain curtains but nothing too ominous.
