Is there a chance that you might see it?

If so, try to take a photo before getting into the Storm Shelter . . .

Unless the tornado is TOO CLOSE!

Yep, what a bust for northern Tarrant County.

You don't hear this often but

3.37 inch Hail was reported near Quanah, TX

So that Tornado warned storm NE of Denton was acting kinda odd out here over Ponder. It moved off to the NE and went Tor Warn. I called NWS with what I saw in Ponder. Sounds like it was getting it's act going here and went on about Tornado just NE of me. Felt some vindication that all those trainings I went to paid off.

Radar is showing potentially early stages of a Squall Line developing in SW Oklahoma . . .
