Line is thin and not much to it. Nothing behind it either. Big bust for most of Southeast, Texas.

Areas affected...Eastern Texas and far western Louisiana

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 99...

Valid 250035Z - 250200Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 99
continues.

SUMMARY...A line of storms will continue to move east toward
Louisiana this evening. These storms may be capable of producing
isolated severe weather as they move east. A downstream watch is
unlikely.

DISCUSSION...A line of storms has produced occasional severe weather
for the past 2 hours across portions of east central Texas. The
strongest storms have remained near the surface low where updrafts
have been able to remain sustained ahead of the surface front. The
severe threat will likely remain primarily in this area through the
evening. While deeper updraft growth has occasionally posed a threat
for large hail, decreasing buoyancy should lessen this threat with a
primarily damaging wind threat for the rest of the evening. Given
the small area and the isolated threat, a downstream watch is
unlikely.

Wow. Based on those videos, the tornado passed on a path just east of Hwy 6, College Station, then Bryan heading NNE and rapidly. The first has the Bryan Target in the foreground. Probably an F1.

Some local damage to homes, business. Hope no one is hurt. Too soon after 55 homes were damaged with injuries in Franklin


It's still raining here. I bet 3+ inches of rain today...we had 0.45 in before the squall line with the embedded tornado

Looks like Houston on towards the coast may just get some sprinkles. Cap wins again.

Yeah, the line is falling apart, but new storms are firing to the south and east. Cap / dry slot. Not surprised.

I spoke too soon. The line of intense storms started falling apart after I typed that and we got about 30 min of light to moderate rain. Probably didn’t even get a quarter inch. Sucks.
