Ugh. Really thought there were some kinematic issues too (unidirectional winds above 850mb) that would prevent long-lived supercellular mode. If not for that I would have gone.

From now on, just go out and play every early season threat.

01Z SPC outlook expanded the enhanced risk for wind into more of far SW/SC WI as well as NW/NC IL. The long-lived tornadic cell already appears to be shrinking/disorganizing a little bit due to sunset. The MS River can act as a brick wall for severe convection even into late May, so we'll see.

Seems fairly overzealous, given the environment ahead of the activity will be trending downward the next several hours.

Well that was impressive to say the least.  Easily the best storm since the derecho in '20.  Can't tell for sure how high they got due to heavy rain and it being night, but weather station 5ft off the ground hit 64mph, so guessing we had 70+mph winds.  The roar reminded me of the derecho.  Wow.

MV enhanced for sure there…
