That's supposed to be after 0z(aka dark) but who knows.


Ah, ok. Thanks for clarifying that (EDIT: And to you too, Ntxw) . I'm very curious to see how that evolves tonight. It seems like most of the derechos I've seen in the past move purely west to east instead of dropping southeast.

Yeah the "derecho" will be moving west to east as upper lift comes out.

Not yet, northeast movement overall it seems. A bigger line will form late this evening further west. HRRR is depicting a few more supercells (one over the same area being hit now, Brown, Erath, Comanche counties etc. However HRRR is not the best model of late.


Interesting you say that about the HRRR, as the SPC included this in one of their recent mesoscale discussions:

--- NOTE ---
RAP MODEL HAS HAD A SUBSTANTIAL DRYING/OVER-MIXING PROBLEM OVER MUCH
OF CENTRAL TX AND SRN OK ALL DAY LONG. THIS APPEARS TO BE STRONGLY
AFFECTING MOISTURE FIELDS AND AUTOMATED ANALYSES OF PARAMETERS
DEPENDENT ON MOISTURE. USE BUOYANCY/MOISTURE/CONVECTIVE PROGS FROM
RAP...RAP-DEPENDENT HRRR...AND SPC/SFCOA FIELDS...WITH GREAT
CAUTION.

Does this mean that it is underdoing the activity that is expected in the central texas later on?

This is going to be a really close call for Deleon and Dublin if it stays on the ground.

Looks like these storms are going to miss DFW, seems like we are going to escape round 2 here.

Going between Comanche and Deleon it looks like to me.

Dublin could be - COULD BE - in the direct path however if motion continues.
