That rain complex is lifting North over Mississippi... Concerned about what is developing below that especially when it gets over South Alabama and NW Florida tonight

Looks like this is going to be a slow mover.

Pretty much a non-event in the Lafayette area with .68" of rain officially. Had a severe thunderstorm warning but no issues reported around town. What happened to all the winds that were forecast today? Currently winds are only 8mph and a gust to 18mph earlier today, really odd given the 20-30mph sustained gusts to 40mph forecast. Could this possibly be due to the large MCS that formed along the coast?

I wouldn't call it a bust for SE LA however, over a half dozen confirmed tornadoes with a large tornado apparently on the ground right now west of New Orleans. Definitely not a run of the mill event for this area.

Not seeing the supercell action that was forecast. Quite a few tornadoes, but these appear to be embedded within lines now

I wonder why we have not seen many super cells. Only one is the small one in southern Alabama. Had a couple earlier, but they quickly became linear. Are the parameters not as favorable as advertised?
