I'm starting to be a bit scared. It looks like things will be in the right place at the right time for a change. Looking at the 0Z model runs on Unisys, the best shear appears to be around 18Z. I'm not too impressed with the speed shear, but the directional isnt horrible. A nice instability axis extending from eastern OK northeastward into swrn OH. As the front passes SE thru the region, storms will fire pretty well. I'm not too optimistic about much severe weather, but just getting some thunder in this part of the world will be nice. My opinion is that SPC is a bit over ambitious, at least in the immediate vicinity of the Ohio River, but we'll see. The terrain here is pretty poor, so I don't plan on going anywhere, but if anything interesting happens, I'll let everyone know.
