This is the 1200z North Platte sounding, definitely within the slight risk area.

From what I've learned about soundings, there seems to be a huge cap. The convective temperature looks to be a lot higher than the current temperature. There appears to be no CAPE. The LFC looks very high. The EL looks very low. There seems to be little wind shear above 650mb, and not much below that. The winds aren't veering smoothly as you go up in the atmosphere.
I would say nothing about this sounding indicates storms today. I know they're right, and I'm wrong.
What should I be able to see on this sounding that I'm missing? I can't figure out how to differentiate between this sounding and any random one that indicates no storms possible.
