Some individual cells along the line are approaching SEMO and will move through the area in the coming hours. All severe modes are still possible. This line may end up speeding up still.

8:14 PM: The main line of storms remains to the west over Missouri & Arkansas, but isolated storms have started to develop ahead of it over west Tennessee and northern Mississippi. It's still a waiting game for us here in Middle TN, but don't let your guard down! Before the line's arrival likely around midnight, we'll still be watching for the possibility of isolated storms to develop.
