Not sure what these clouds will do, but the key will be finding some clearing and a good focus point for discrete convection.
Tornado threat looks decent, especially along any boundaries or near sunset as LLJ ramps up. It may be a near evening tornado threat, but I definitely think the risk is there. Currently I plan to stay along I40 and south. North could potentially be a wash with all the ongoing convection and clouds. Time will tell though.. Latest HazWRF and NSSL WRF support the idea of severe supercells further south (near and south of I40).
