Supercells Developing...

* Supercells are beginning to develop across parts of northern Louisiana, western Mississippi, and southern Arkansas. Some of these have had funnel clouds reported with them, while others have had very large hail. We suspect that these reports will really begin to fly in fast and furious over the next several hours.

* The corridor we are watching is from Natchez back towards the southwest. That's the area that storms may fire and move northeast into our area later tonight.

* We are going to push back our timing; things have been slow to develop - we'll now go with the idea that we'll be dealing with bad weather between 8:00 pm and 3:00 am.

This is Java-based radar loop we've been working on lately. You can zoom in, stop the radar loop, and it also shows severe weather warnings. A fun tool, be sure to check it out!

* Back to watching the radar - more updates coming on Live at Five and Newscenter 11 at 6...
