Had a feeling that might happen when the 2nd line caught up to the first line, and was worried it might happen in the metro. Fortunately the second line didn’t catch the first one in time up here. Hope everyone is ok down south of here

Yeah that's a nasty embedded supercell. Hopefully it doesn't try to drop anything strong but the healthy meso and current confirmed tornado worries me.

That's a very intense bowed area of the storm as well. Very sharp edges. From nothing to blinding rain and likely screaming wind.

[Texas Snowman]

@BrianCurtisNBC5 — MIDLOTHIAN: Stay calm. Get to your safe place. Put as many walls as possible between you and the outside. @NBCDFW on.nbcdfw.com/Ai1G2nv

@DFWscanner — Accident w/ Entrapment (Johnson County) Briaroaks Engine 73 on scene of a reported vehicle blown over by a tornado at FM 917 and FM 731. Possible entrapment. Power lines also down in the area.

Between last weeks line and this week, I bet we see a drop from extreme drought to moderate.
