Cloud tops are cooling and storm seems to be really intensifying as it nears Houston. Stay alert until this has passed through your area for possible quick spin-ups along the leading edge of the thunderstorms.

All good here near Lake Conroe Dam. Leading edge had maybe a 30mph wind gust for 30 seconds then a good ol fashion turd floater after it. The radar looked way worse. The way it was looking we were fixing to get hammered.
