WRF Showing Rotating Updraft Potential

This image shows the maximum updraft helicity. In other words, it shows the spinning of thunderstorms as they form, which could create a tornadic situation.
There is an abnormally high rate of helicity in Kentucky and Southern Indiana, which greatly worries me that the tornado risk may be a bit underestimated with instability around 1000 j/kg.
