Looks like our potential 2-day soaker is all going to come in one of our typical 'hairline' squall lines that is pencil-thin once again. Radar screen now looks like February's once-a-month squall line...that in turn looked like the one in January (Deja Vu Deja Vu). Anyway, enjoy the 10 minutes of rain. We did get enough drizzle to loosen the birds**t on our patio table and chairs, though .

Agreed, that line's not very wide at all. You get the small amounts of rain and we up here in Indiana have too much now. We need to flip these rainfall amounts around.

[Ntxw]

As seen on visible in addition to the line moving into the metroplex the SW is crossing west Texas and more back-building may occur in the Hill Country moving NE with attending cold front. There are singular cells trying to develop ahead of the line in central Texas which might need to be closely monitored.



Remember the forecast was for 0.50-1 inch rainfall from a line of thunderstorms, not a tropical downpour.
