Yep, since around late morning or early afternoon yesterday. I had to use Pivotal Weather instead.

Your lucky, I can't log in to Storm2K from the home computer. I'm using the same Chrome account on my work computer and it works. I'll be ok if they let me bring the work computer over the summer.

Cleared last 4 weeks in Chrome because the problem started about two weeks ago. It was intermittent at first. I get nervous about losing Chrome passwords, I use some of those 35n$B8!7aQ45 typesuggested passwords for sites with tight acceptable passwords.

I was watching Ryan Hall when it looked like the tornadic/baseball sized hail storm might hit the Metroplex. His YouTube stream is getting goofy with the Yallboy and all.

This is not a complaint as I know our friends south and west of us are dealing with drought conditions. That being said, I think I live in some sort of rain Bermuda Triangle. We've had multiple storms run through DFW since Friday night. I know there's another person on here who might be able to verify, but I don't think my yard (Rowlett) has had more than .01 inches of rain from any of them. As I type, another storm is missing us by a couple of miles. Very weird.
Again, not complaining. Just an odd observation.

Tornado watch coming soon for the first round. Lots of flies in the ointment today and I'm still not completely sold on this being a significant outbreak. Lots of cloud cover remains and this first round could overturn the atmosphere and make it tougher to recover for second and likely more dangerous round later this afternoon/evening. Both rounds could easily end up messy with several mergers/clusters possible. Strong tornado threat is there, but I wouldn't be surprised to see this turn into more of a wind/hail threat. Of course as always, it only takes one cell going crazy to make an event memorable.

For north Texas though I think this event is uptrending. Discrete supercell development is looking more likely this afternoon/evening.

Yeah unfortunately that's indicative of the type of pattern you're currently in up there.

In North and Central Texas its been a hit or miss setup with many folks missing on rain because we really don't have the dynamics (robust lift) in place further south to make this a more widespread event. There's good and bad in that however.

The good news is with the environment so unstable you lower the risk of widespread hail damage without that lift but the bad part in that is when you do get an isolated storm or two to develop that aren't competing with each other, those tend to become monsters as we saw yesterday west of Fort Worth. Those can become extremely dangerous.

Today to me looks like most of the action will stay north and east of the DFW region with perhaps an isolated storm or two by late afternoon or early evening but if clouds hang around longer keeping temps in check, the cap may hold and remove any chance of severe storms for that region.

Just took a look at SPC mesoanalysis page and the time to watch in my opinion today is between 4-6PM across Central Oklahoma to the Red River and perhaps SW of DFW.

Again I think with better dynamics across Oklahoma conditions are more favorable for storm development but the atmosphere down into N TX is definitely loaded and if (more conditional) you get a storm or two to develop, you could see very large hail along with a strong tornado or two possible.

LLJ will increase by early evening and that's when your tornado threat maximizes across those regions with any storm that is ongoing.

Big elevated hailer near Muskogee showing no signs of slowing down. Wonder if that could overturn the environment and make it tougher to recover. Something to watch
