80°F today, but a DP of 35°F. 10 mph breeze.

I'll take that that all year long! Give me half an inch to an inch of rain a week and it would be perfect.

Actually, that cell around Coldspring needs to be watched. Has some weak rotation in it right now.

Not much around here, but the cell pounding Livingston is pretty intense.

So much for sunny and dry! :lol:

Supercell has a well-defined WER and is veering right. Rotation is getting better defined too. This thing is about to drop something.

Yeah, and the parameters are already higher than expected, this may get really nasty.

This is definitely not good news because this will fuel the storms in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama later today.

Meh. The Texas desert continues to move further east. Conditions have to be near perfect to get a lot of storms down here, unless they come off the gulf.

Are you able to embed that Tweet on the forum for everyone who don’t have a Twitter account so they can see exactly what he is expressing in regards to the lack of activity over our area despite the favorable severe weather parameters?

0z mesoscale models have come in much wetter tomorrow night,with a disturbance riding the frontal boundary along the i-10 corridor.If the trends continue I wouldn't be surprised if the area gets upgraded to a slight risk tomorrow from the SPC with that surface low developing over the area triggering possibly supercells.
