I am out of town and didn’t know weather was getting that bad back home. We are coming home tomorrow from San Antonio and praying we don’t get caught driving in bad weather.
From what I can tell, tomorrow’s worst weather will be during the overnight hours Friday night/Saturday morning. I’m soo glad y’all were able to finally go on your trip!!

Quite A storm here overnight.....but amazingly I didn't fully wake....instead it made it into my dream...i was in the catacombs of the white cliffs of Dover where Britain ran their WWII operations and the thunder was bombs being dropped above....pretty trippy.
We had 3 confirmed touchdowns from the last event:

Late tomorrow night through at least Saturday morning, but for the south shore...maybe a little longer.

I see that a portion of Northeast Louisiana and the entire Mississippi mid-section is now under a Level 4, Moderate Risk. The Level 3 even nudged ever so slightly Southward. I see the Level 2 even nudged slightly Southward as well. Is there any likelihood of the Levels 2 and 3 nudge even more Southward?
I was under just a Level 1 the other day and there were a few Tornado Warnings issued for my parish as well as numerous reports of street flooding in my parish, and from what my husband and I witnessed, we had a wickedly stronger storm under the Level 1 than I've seem for this immediate area when it's under a Level 2 or even the rare 3. That was one very wicked storm!

This is certainly a type of severe weather event that can over-perform for us. The trajectory of that squall-line will determine a lot but all severe weather types are possible.
Flooding too, that line could slow to a crawl as it approaches the South Shore.

Kind of hoping cloud cover today would take a little off the severe potential but if it's supposed to be overnight I guess daytime heating will be dissipated by then....
