On elevated vs surface based
There's no "magic criterion", but there are two 
fields on the SPC mesoanalysis page you can view:
The "effective inflow base" (color shaded part of the plot)
http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/s6/effh.gif

The height of the most-unstable parcel 
http://www.spc.noaa.gov/exper/mesoanalysis/s6/mucp.gif

You can be reasonably confident that a storm is based at the ground 
when the effective inflow base is at the ground (no color shading) 
*and* the most unstable parcel is the surface (less than 250 m 
above ground level on the most-unstable CAPE plot). A storm may 
be "elevated" when the effective 
inflow base reaches the ground, but the most-unstable parcel level 
is above the ground. 

The same information is plotted with the observed soundings on the 
SPC site.
