City - 160,000, Metro - 260,000

Downtown should be OK. North of 565 is most at risk.

Me either. The north end is in danger right now. I think it will track on a line about 2-3 miles north of 565, which goes right downtown.

You've got lots more cells headed that way. Stay alert.

I hate that creepy streetlight-reflecting-off-low-clouds-orange color during thunderstorms. It's just freaky.
