Re: Texas Summer 2023
Holy crap my home station shows 90 degrees. 78 dew point, 108 heat index. That is unheard of around here.

It is absolutely disgusting.

Re: Texas Summer 2023
Looks like they expanded the risk areas further south. Might be a rough day I heard possible straight line winds over 100mph? Let’s pray that doesn’t verify.

Re: Texas Summer 2023
Talk of those high winds reminds me of the Kansas inland hurricane in 1990. Remember that vividly growing up. Widespread 100 mph winds (sustained…)

Re: Texas Summer 2023
Will this be a low coverage high impact, or high coverage high impact?
It just feels like bad weather day outside.
Something tells me this will get bad later.

Don't hold me accountable for anything I post on this forum. Leave the real forecasting up to the professionals.

Very humid, high dewpoints.
Most of us won't see anything. A couple of cells may drop hail but isolated in nature. Oklahoma will have better coverage with MCS like squall.

Re: Texas Summer 2023
Majority of the short range models I’ve looked at keep the bulk of the storms in OK. I wonder what’s with the shift South in moderate risk and medium tornado risk?

The SPC Outlook lines up pretty well with what the HRRR has been showing very consistently for numerous runs. On the southern end it will be more hit and miss, probably more miss, until you get into NE TX. But if it does hit in NC TX, it looks pretty strong.
And yes, the air outside is oppressive. 88.5F/79.5F on my weather station for a heat index of 105F.

I hope up here it’s a miss. Mine is similar 93F/75.5F, heat index 105.2

Re: Texas Summer 2023
Dr. Timmer mentioned earlier that he felt, based on the setup, coverage would be higher than what the hi-res models are showing. I tend to agree.

Re: Texas Summer 2023
With that said, the 18z HRRR keeps everything NE of all but the far outlying portions of DFW. Don't want any hail or wind damage but kept thinking that given this run of days, we would have gotten a good soaking in DFW at some point

Re: Texas Summer 2023
Cells going up in SW OK and SW of DFW, way ahead of schedule and not many runs showed storms firing SW of DFW.
