The front dryline doesn’t appear truly stationary but has slowed a lot. I think all of DFW is at risk.

Already getting stronger. This is like 2 hours ahead of the HRRR

These first attempts might not take hold depending on if they can ger surface based as they push off that boundary but the dryline/front is clearly evident on radar..

Nope, these are the real deal.

[Quixotic]

Can't believe that one in Parker hasn't been warned yet.

[rwfromkansas]

I guess the line forming is a good thing...... less Tornado more smaller hail and wind?

I guess the line forming is a good thing...... less Tornado more smaller hail and wind?

Yeah the quicker they line up the more likely it shifts to some hail and high wind threat. The southernmost end likely has more tornadic threat.

Agreed. I have a bad feeling about that storm near granbury if it doesn’t get washed out by anything to the south

The storm headed towards Tarrant County looks like the best bet for become tornadic.

There's a good hook on the storm passing SW Denton county near Justin. This one may get a tor warning soon if one isn't already imminent or on the ground.

[bubba hotep]

It looked like things were going to quickly line out but now it's looking like we might be getting 3 dominate supercells or clusters. That will be problematic if they don't trend back towards a line here soon.

[cheezyWXguy]

Yeah the quicker they line up the more likely it shifts to some hail and high wind threat. The southernmost end likely has more tornadic threat.

Friend out in granbury actually saw it. Sounds like it didn’t last long though.
