I see a 4:35 scan on KFWS. Nothing noteworthy on Velocity, but VIL is interesting.

GRLevel3 is already indicating hail up to 3" in that Wise/Denton county storm and it looks like it might be trying to backbuild southwest along the dryline. But I'm not sure how successful it will be since the Hood/Parker/Johnson/Tarrant county storm might rob some of the inflow

Well, it appears that the cap has been largely eroded, at least along/west of I-35. It's most unfortunate that Denton (and other areas) got softball sized hail, saw some amazing damage pictures on twitter. Holes punched through windshields.

Looks like some kind of boundary (maybe an outflow boundary) is moving westward through Parker county about to collide with the dryline. Could this boundary collision trigger more storms?

Terrible hook echo on the Denton storm. No confirmation yet of a tornado on the ground though as per David Finfrock. But that hook echo is MEAN looking.

Multiple Twitter accounts are showing a dangerous looking wall cloud moving east into Denton. This is very serious.
