I'm guessing that. Pretty impressive shear, but not much surface based instability.
Louisiana and Mississippi on Thursday afternoon and evening, looks like.
Closer to home, late morning Thursday, while surface CAPE is only around 100 J/Kg, TT is over 50, per my AccuWx PPV page, so enough mid-level instability for thunder, and 850 mb winds near 50 knots, might be enough for a healthy storm. As an aside, behind the front, WRF seems to indicate North of I-20 may see the happy coincidence of a little precip and sub 540 DM thickness/850 mb freezing line for a little excitement Thursday night and Friday.

0757 AM CST TUE JAN 29 2008
AREAS AFFECTED...CENTRAL/SOUTHERN AR AND NORTHERN LA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 291357Z - 291530Z
AT LEAST AN ISOLATED SEVERE THREAT SHOULD GRADUALLY INCREASE THIS
MORNING FROM THE ARKLATEX VICINITY ACROSS MUCH OF CENTRAL/SOUTHERN
AR AND NORTHERN LA. AS SURFACE BASED STORMS BECOME MORE LIKELY...A
WATCH COULD BE NEEDED A BIT LATER THIS MORNING.
WITHIN A LOW LEVEL MOIST AXIS AND REGION OF HEIGHT FALLS DOWNSTREAM
OF HIGH PLAINS UPPER TROUGH...SATELLITE/VOLUMETRIC RADAR TRENDS
REFLECT A GRADUAL INTENSITY INCREASE IN STORMS SINCE DAWN ACROSS THE
ARKLATEX REGION. WHILE TOTAL INSTABILITY IS FAIRLY LIMITED PER 12Z
OBSERVED LITTLE ROCK/SHREVEPORT RAOBS...MODIFIED/RUC SOUNDINGS
SUGGEST THAT SURFACE BASED STORMS WILL BECOME MORE PROBABLE AS
TEMPERATURES WARM THROUGH THE MIDDLE 60S. GIVEN THE STRONG
KINEMATICS/WIND FIELDS AND HIGH SRH ENVIRONMENT THAT IS IN
PLACE...CONVECTIVE TRENDS WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR AN
INCREASING RISK OF SEVERE BASED STORMS WITH A RISK OF DAMAGING
WINDS/A FEW TORNADOES AND PERHAPS SEVERE HAIL.

Texarkana this morning, instability is somewhat modest, but check out the winds and shear! (RUC model sounding)

Re: SPC sees Jan 29th & 31st severe outbreak
Getting back to Thursday (thread was originally titled just 1/31/08), while surface based instability isn't all that high, it is probably enough for much of Lousiana and the Southern half of MS and AL based on upward motion and strong low level winds, turning with height.
If it stays like this, when we get to Thursday morning, I wouldn't be surprised to see a Moderate Risk area South of about an AEX to HEZ to JAN to DHN line.

Re: SPC sees Jan 29th & 31st severe outbreak
Winds are already shifting West in Houston behind pre-frontal trough, but still looks like something is trying to form on actual cold front.
HOU area satellite loop
Edit to add-
just checked the radar, nothing much yet, it'll probaby pass HOU dry.

AREAS AFFECTED...ECNTRL IL...NW IND
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 291924Z - 292030Z
A SEVERE THREAT SHOULD CONTINUE FOR SEVERAL MORE HOURS ACROSS ECNTRL
IL WITH THE THREAT POSSIBLY EXPANDING EWD INTO NW IND BY LATE THIS
AFTERNOON. HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE STRONGER
CELLS. A WW MAY BECOME NECESSARY THIS AFTERNOON.
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THE AXIS OF A WELL-DEFINED
UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE GREAT PLAINS. SEVERAL VORT MAXIMA ARE
INDICATED BY THE RUC OVER ERN IA AND NRN MO AND THESE FEATURES ARE
LIKELY CREATING STRONG LARGE-SCALE ASCENT ACROSS WRN IL. IN
ADDITION...THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF THE MID-LEVEL JET IS LOCATED
ACROSS ERN MO AND WRN IL AND THIS IS LIKELY CREATING STRONG
UPPER-LEVEL DIVERGENCE. AS THESE FEATURES MOVE ACROSS IL THIS
AFTERNOON...STORM COVERAGE SHOULD GRADUALLY EXPAND. IN
ADDITION...VERTICAL SHEAR ON REGIONAL WSR-88D VWPS IS VERY STRONG
WITH 0-6 KM SHEAR VALUES IN THE 70 TO 90 KT RANGE. IN SPITE OF THE
VERY WEAK INSTABILITY...THE SHEAR ENVIRONMENT SHOULD SUPPORT
ISOLATED SUPERCELLS WITH POTENTIAL FOR HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE.
