Nacogdoches is about to get hit hard. Strong wind, tennis ball sized hail and possible tornado.

I understand that convective systems are more difficult for the models to forecast, but it does seem like they really have been struggling within the past few years. I recall about five years ago that the models seemed to be handling these convective systems better. For example, I remember that if the Euro showed you were going to get rain within three days, it was probably going to rain. Now, it seems like it is much less consistent. Perhaps the algorithms used then were better than the ones in use now.

Looks like a tornado is trying south of Nac heading towards Chireno. There is no chance of seeing a tornado in this storm with the wind and heavy rain.

Yikes. That’s a strong cap
It's like that person you don't invite but they show up unexpectedly. In this case I'm fine with it. Would be pissed if this was a dry slot or warm nose and we missed out on snow

Delkus is saying there is still a cap in place. I guess forcing from the dry line would help break it?

Re: Texas Spring 2020
Little to no developemnt so far with dry line approching DFW metro area. doesn't look good for east Texas as that's now where I believe the highest chances are for severe weather this afternoon.
Cap is strong with this one......
Looks like the dry line is entering western Tarrant Co....

They are firing, in Oklahoma where the best upper forcing is.

Re: Texas Spring 2020
If we could of got the storms that were forecast for this morning then I think they would of weakened the cap enough for storm development this afternoon. Either the models over played the forcing for storms across DFW, or it didn't account for the strenght of the Cap over NCTX.
Dry Line is about to enter Dallas Co....
