Flash Flood Warning for Walker, Trinity, and Montgomery coutnies until 945. Cell training has resulted in 3-6 inches of rainfall since 300am.

Severe thunderstorms continue to develop along a line from SE of Huntsville to Waller to Wharton as dry line is starting to shift E and strong ascent is overspreading a very moist air mass.

Main threats remain large hail and damaging winds, although cells have had some decent rotation this morning.

Re the above tornado warning - Dave works in Jersey Village. <gulp> I'm looking East from a 6th floor windo at one of the blackest skies I've ever seen. Where's the dam camera when I need one....

Tornado Watch issued for extreme SE TX into much of LA and W MS.

SPC will upgrade mod risk area to high risk given very favorable low level shear profiles.

A few violent long tracked tornadoes will be possible over LA into MS this afternoon near warm front and south of that boundary. Severe squall line developing over HOU will track E with supercells developing ahead of this line.

Residents across LA into W MS should pay very close attention to this rapidly evolving weather situation

I'm at Westheimer and Gessner. Got pitch black here also, but nothing severe except the rainfall rate earlier. Wife called from Campbell and I-10 wondering if we "were going to survive"-high winds and torrential rains at her location. Daughter works out at Hollister and 290 and I don't know her new contact numbers yet. :eek:

I noticed the TVS hook signature where Jeff has noted. DON'T like to see those. All is well here now and it appears to be over for this area of town.

It wasnt too bad here... Got quite dark, and the thunder began... But for the most part, it was the torrential rains.. The thunder was just a nice relaxing addition...

Portastorm wrote:Hey all ... I had to get online and post this. We just had an incredible hailstorm here in far north Austin (about 8 miles NW of the city proper). Hail about quarter sized fell for 5 minutes straight. I thought the windows were going to break at one point.

So weird to have a hailstorm this late at night it seems. Anyhow, don't know about you Shoshana .. but we got nailed here ... this storm by far was the worst.

And the strangest? Our dog was acting very peculiar from 30 minutes before until the storm and kept trying to wake us up (I was already awake). His behavior was unusual ... like this late-night, rock-n-roll storm. Sheesh ... gotta try and go back to bed now!!

Glad nothing broke!!! We've seen pea size hail 3 times so far this season...

I heard the dogs in the neighborhood going bananas as the storm cell got closer. I watched the lightning go from the west, to the north to the east. The storm went right around us! Not a drop of rain even. I turned on the news (KVUE, I think) and the met there had one of those handy dandy zoooomed in street map level radar maps. It was about 1:30am or so, and the hail seemed to be marching down Wells Branch Parkway across I35 and into Pflugerville/ Round Rock.

We're in far North Austin too

just not as far north as Wells Branch Pkwy tho.
