Not sure what you're seeing? 12z models so far have trended more progressive with the trough. Most show a band of showers moving eastward across the state Friday morning, with the thunderstorms holding off until far east TX during the afternoon.
At 19z Fri on the 12z nam, i see a second, albeit weak, broken line of precip that was not there on prior runs.
It still looks like the main severe risk area will be east of Dallas and closer to Tyler/Texarkana.
The trough will need to slow down for severe storms to fire closer to IH-35.
Completely agree. I see nothing on that particular run that suggests severe weather in dfw, but I did notice that afternoon precip initiated a little further west on that run, which to me, looked like a start.
As a “weather-weenie” I can talk about my biases for “wanting something to happen” and acknowledge them. My main concern for this event is that the dry line may still be being pushed too far east by the models, and may catch the metroplex by surprise at the last minute. This concern has been mentioned here before, and in forecast discussions from nws ftworth
