I'm wondering how much we're going to be able to destabilize after this line.

Given how early it is, and the storms later were supposed to come after noon, there's still a chance for heating to take place before hand. Last night's soundings had 1000-1500 j/kg MLCAPE which is more than enough for storms in our area. These storms are moving through relatively quickly as well. It's just a timing game now.
