Maybe?

Day 4-8 Convective Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0329 AM CDT Wed May 31 2017

   Valid 031200Z - 081200Z

   ...DISCUSSION...
   ...Saturday/Day 4 and Sunday/Day 5...
   The ECMWF and GFS models are in reasonable agreement on Saturday
   with an upper-level ridge in the Rockies and a shortwave trough in
   the northern Plains. Both models show a corridor of low-level
   moisture and instability across the upper Mississippi Valley where a
   severe threat could develop Saturday afternoon and evening. The
   shortwave trough is forecast to amplify and move southeastward
   across the upper Mississippi Valley on Sunday as the two models move
   a cold front southward into the Ohio Valley. Thunderstorms that form
   along the front could have a severe threat Sunday afternoon and
   evening. Strong thunderstorms will also be possible eastward into
   the Mid-Atlantic where the ECMWF develops a pocket of moderate
   instability Sunday afternoon. Spatial and magnitude uncertainty is
   substantial on Saturday and Sunday.

   ...Monday/Day 6 to Wednesday/Day 8...
   On Monday, the ECMWF and GFS solutions continue to deepen the
   upper-level trough and move the trough into the southern Great Lakes
   and mid Mississippi Valley. The two models also move a cold front
   southward into the Tennessee Valley and eastward to the
   Mid-Atlantic. A severe threat would be possible along parts of the
   front that sufficiently destabilize Monday afternoon and evening.
   These solutions drive the front southward across the Gulf Coast
   states and into the Gulf of Mexico from Tuesday into Wednesday. The
   eastern part of the front is forecast to be located across either
   the Florida Peninsula or the southeastern states on Tuesday and
   Wednesday where a marginal severe threat would be possible each
   afternoon. Again, spatial and magnitude uncertainty is substantial
   from Monday to Wednesday.

was definitely in a good spot today.   Got the heart of the core here in southern Howard County.   I didn't get the 1" hail that BWI reported, but winds easily gusted in the 45-50 mph range and it was a deluge.

looking ahead, Monday's wind profile suggests a somewhat common westerly flow at all levels with increasing speeds with height  profile which can do well here if you don't wipe out the low-level moisture.

I must have just missed it because it was really pedestrian here.  A few rumbles of thunder, 10 minutes of moderate rain, and a slight wind gust.

     Yeah, it did seem like the core passed just southeast of Columbia.    Really impressive here.
