Cell near Malvern, AR rapidly intensifying. Should be severe soon at this rate. Also rotating some.

Yeah still not quite breaking the cap but its getting close now, should see some cells breaking through quite soon based on what I'm seeing, the cell that Crazy mentioned just now could be the one to break through.

FWIW, radar showing 36,000 ft tops with that cell. Up to 50 dbZ. I think this one made it though.

Yep I'm watching there as well.

Plenty of cells attempting to go up from the looks of the reports, things going to become very interesting in the next hour, though thus far no severe thunderstorm warnings from west of the MCS....though the cell SW of Little Rock probably isn't far away.

Me too, but weakening. The saving grace would be if it fails to blow off completely, but that is not the forecast. Probably by 6 pm CDT I would think we will see tornadic supercells.

The Brinkley cell is now up to about 35,000 feet.

You may be right. Cells develop and then hit that wall. The anticipation just keeps building...

DeSoto, MS storm is TOR warned.

While we are waiting for the storms to "pop" thought I would pass along that myself, along with new Storm2K member Mindi, went out and did some stormchasing last night. We caught the Willow Springs, MO tornado.
