Texas Spring 2017

[Brent]

the 18z NAM had the hole over DFW and the cell in Collin County

New cell rapidly developing just west of Ft. Worth now.

[Ntxw]

60 and 20mph+ wind gusts in Wichita Falls, 70 in Decatur with similar gusts from the north. 79F in Denton on a S Wind

Hail core looking to be baseball size heading for Mckinney

[Brent]

Well I guess the hail alley has moved to the McKinney area this spring

It's not rotating but a definite wall cloud NE of here. Want to say 380 and DNT.

This is going to be way to close for comfort!

That appendage on the southwest flank is where folks should be watching imo for any spin ups if there were to be one. Otherwise, looks like another big insurance claim.

This cell has great structure but can't time up the lightning well enough to get a pic.

It is moving towards the top of that 2 contour

[South Texas Storms]

Meanwhile down here, the weather has been extremely dull. No rain to speak of and nothing for the next week. We'll see about that upcoming system but for now I'm going into hibernation.

Yep, it's not looking good for rain around here for at least the next 5 days. Hopefully the system late next week will track far enough south to bring us some rain.

[Brent]

Well some good rains on the north side of DFW at least, airport may not record much though

I'm surprised that cells stayed so discrete this evening but luckily there wasn't much low level flow. The wind was basically stagnant outside my house with a warned cell passing off to my NE. The wind did briefly kick up a good bit when a second cell passed a bit closer. Got some interesting scud or maybe a funnel? There appeared to be some rotation and the wind kicked up enough to blow over garbage cans and what not.



that picture was taken when the appendage of the cell passed just to my north

Heh, you in Wylie too? I am and I can faintly hear the sirens probably for the hail in Plano.

I'm ready for this cold front

Yeah, sirens for sure going off. Can't tell if it's Plano or Richardson? Maybe Murphy now?

Maybe Sachse too? Hail core looks to be down there

Yeah, everyone is in on it now lol

Wow, more cells starting to fire out NW of Krum. Hopefully, no more hail. The sirens freaked out my family
