For once, DFW actually has a solid setup for peak-heating severe weather tomorrow.

And this is a good thing?

If a roof/house gets wrecked with the new 2% deductible insurance is forcing on everyone it will financial ruin people.

I mean, purely from a weather tracking-standpoint, it will certainly be fun to watch/analyze. Obviously it will suck if significant damage is caused and no one's is wishing that on anybody. But ultimatey, none of us can control the weather.

And frankly, a little introspection is helpful. DFW's been on a hell of a run with avoiding any daytime severe weather outbreaks since I got here in November 2020 (so much that I haven't even observed a decent shelf cloud and only 1 large hail episode also at night) considering its climo. The laws of avaerages say that luck will eventually change sooner or later.

I've lived here my whole life, born in 1982. It's part of living here but spring storms as we all know are no joke. Mayfest was really bad.

No doubt.

Although both 2 nighttime events per the usual MO lately, I witnessed that on 5/27/24 and 3/5/25.

My parents in Bedford got a free roof out of Mayfest. They were needing a new roof, then the storm, and the insurer (Allstate?) waived the deductible if they used Sears Home Repair. Fast foward, big enough hailstorm in Bedford last year my sister and BIL's heavy Spanish style roof tiles needed replacing. That roof had laughed at all hailstorms until that one.

New law went into effect, you have to prove prove payment of your deductible to the roofer in order for funds to be released.

Part two is now they're jacking up rates.

Times have changed.

OTOH cloud cover continues to stream in from the East Pacific.

15Z HRRR goes nuclear on DFW about 5 pm.

I literally just replaced my roof with the old 1 percent as a screw you to the insurance companies, but the roof is only 10 years old, so I will be hacked off if I get big hail. This was just an accumulation of smaller golfball or less hail over 10 years...

Today? I thought today was pretty meh or far east?

Along and east of 35, really more 35E. We'll have to see where storms initiate.

Idk how y’all people can afford living up there in the Dallas area. Way too expensive up there. You can get the same house in the Houston area for $100-200k less.

The same area of Allen got hit by large hail twice in 2 years

Weather was more interesting this time last year.

noaa seems to think that the heat ridge breaks down fully over the state in the 8-14 day outlook, calling for wetter conditions for most of the state, GFS/ Euro are trending stormier, will see if that holds as we get closer in time, but im not holding my breath lol

[Ntxw]

So far...no storm initiation.
