Seems very hyped up for a moderate risk day. No PDS watch etc.

Storm cells can pop up and turn into tornadoes in 5 minutes.
They do usually tend to develop in the afternoons and continue into the early evenings.
The massive tornado that destroyed much of Moore formed and went from F1 to F5 in about 10 minutes, per some reports.

Note the statement in the latest outlook from the SPC in Norman, OK:
...AND PORTIONS OF CENTRAL/EASTERN OK
WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR AN UPGRADE TO HIGH RISK AT 20Z IF
SHORTER-TERM MESOSCALE MODELS MAINTAIN THIS SCENARIO.
I would imagine when Tornado Watches are issued today in Oklahoma, you will see a PDS version...

I don’t think the watch on the Moore tornado day was a PDS.

SPC is considering at high risk at 3PM CDT.

There was only a moderate risk for the day of the Moore tornado. No PDS.
