Also, activity will possibly begin to fire in earnest just ahead of the squall line as it gets closer, with the possibility of discrete supercells just out ahead of this charging squall line ... much like we saw just a few hours earlier with some of the long-track supercells from the first batch ...

I hope you're wrong about it intensifying about the time it reaches Beaumont. It's strong enough already. I don't really understand what you mean about the area of convergence though and why it could strengthen there though.

It's approaching Houston now....ya'll stay safe and take cover when necessary!!

Still intensifying, watch out houston, im talking to someone in Richmond online that I warned, and its bad there, with winds gusting hard, hail is big, and he got scared and got in the shelter because the pressure dropped fast, so this storm that hit him, is coming at you, watch out with it, im continueing to warn people online.

Bow echo headed due W toward N Brazoria, S and Central Harris and N Galveston Counties.

Not looking good for Houston Metro and areas south. Actually looking quite frightening.

Katdaddy, I see your area on radar, its north of the Radar site for Houston. I am looking at that line maybe clipping you to the North, still a bit early to tell, its moving ENE it seems. and the worst is gonna hit houston metro head on. You gotta watch the Northern and southern ends of that southern line, because thats where rotation is occuring.

UPDATE: Katdaddy, the squll line is now backbuilding southward, and its getting stronger by the minute, so look for the same outcome houston is going to get!

New tornado watch just issued for northern Alabama and south central Tennessee. Stay safe tonight guys and gals.

Its going to be a close call. Looks like some high straight line winds on the way regardless. Lightening has really increased over the last 15 minutes. I can now hear thunder off to the W

Yeah I see on the local Channel 2 KPRC radar

Waiting for another Severe Thunderstorm Warning to pop for Galveston County very soon.

I'm located in Far Southeast Houston just south od beltway 8 and I-45. (Sagmemont/Southbelt/Clearbrook) area. The rain hasn't started yet, but should I bring my pooch inside or will she be safe in her dog house?

What are the implications of being hit by the bow echo?

Bow echoes contain strong straight winds.

HouTXmetro · #60 Postby **HouTXmetro** » Tue Nov 23, 2004 11:14 pm

So far we haven't seen a drop of rain on the far southeast side of Houston.

Squall Line!
