I was thinking the same thing a while ago… I almost thought the radar was glitching and moving in slow motion lol

Good eye! It’s lessened quite a bit, but that much rotation will probably force me to stay awake for another hour just to be sure nothing forms.

Line certainly seems to be a bit stronger and wider to me without as many gaps. Intense rain.

Up to 2.25 just today.

Best rain in months.

Lucky! Wish the line would fill in farther south towards Austin and SA. Models keep showing it will but it hasn't yet...

As slow as this thing is moving, it might be well into the morning before it sweeps through Austin and San Antonio. We just moved back to Grand Prairie and I still haven't seen much yet.
Starting to hear thunder so it's close.

Geez, almost 3 inches now for the day in north Fort Worth.

It seems the FWD is showing some gaps in coverage developing a bit, but CASA doesn’t show that. Think it’s a radar artifact.

The Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion that came out about an hour ago said this at the end…

“All things considered, additional scattered to numerous flash floods are considered likely, with some locally significant (to perhaps catastrophic) flash flooding also likely.”

Shhhh, let it do its thing. We need the rain :wink:

Maybe we can get lucky and the same can happen with a snow storm?

Widespread 4-6"+ totals across DFW for this event :rain: :rain: It looks like 9"+ down around Glen Rose and some big totals across the Edwards Plateau. Overall, a pretty significant rain event for Texas to kickstart us into the rest of Fall and Winter.

Yeah...about that last sentence...still waiting on widespread heavy rain across south central Texas. Looks like north TX hogged it all again :cry:

Looks like a swath of big totals from Vance/Rock Springs up towards Bend, TX. That's who you need to file your complaint with, not North Texas.
