Very dark in the Gulfgate area. Stay safe folks. Pay close attention to the weather outlets, pro mets here and be weather aware.

Meso low developing along and S of I-10 just W of Harris County moving E. Folks along and S of I-10 need to watch for some increasing threat of a quick tornado spin up across Central, Southern Harris, Ft Bent, Brazos and Galveston Counties on East.

Mesoscale Discussion 0180
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0833 AM CST Tue Feb 14 2017

Areas affected...Portions of the Upper TX Coast and vicinity

Concerning...Tornado Watch 32...

Valid 141433Z - 141500Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 32 continues.

SUMMARY...The most intense segment of a quasi-linear convective
system will move through locations near and south of the Houston
area through 16Z. Damaging winds and a few tornadoes are possible.

DISCUSSION...The most prominent rear-inflow surges and flanking
mesovortices attendant to a broader squall line crossing southeast
TX will move through areas near/south of the Houston area through
16Z. The HGX VAD wind profile indicates ample low-level SRH (around
250-300 m2/s2 in the 0-1-km layer), aided by veering winds with
height. Sufficient moisture influx ahead of the line (dewpoints in
the middle 60s) will support enough buoyancy for a continued
damaging wind risk, and line-embedded circulations may pose a
tornado risk with this most intense portion of the convective
system. This could affect the Houston area and locations to the
south.

Update from Jeff:

Powerful supercell moving ENE through central Fort Bend County showing strong rotation couplet at US 59/HWY 99. Large area of 60-80mph winds extends south across nearly all of Fort Bend County. Damage has been reported in both Wharton and Boling, and Pleak from this storm.

This cell will be moving over Sugar Land and then into SW/S Harris County. This is a serious supercell capable of producing damaging tornadoes.

Take immediate tornado precautions if under a tornado warning.

Wowzers, this got strong fast. Be prepared folks. I am in Gulfgate it is really dark. Have not seen it this dark in 2 years.

[houstonia]

Heavy rain falling now in far southwest Houston. It's also cold. Not a bit of wind, but continual lightning. Not much thunder either.
On edit - it is as dark as night here right now and pretty scary.

[tireman4]

It is really moving fast. Outer edges approaching 45 and 610 (South) now.

Those areas of rotation being shown on KHOU right now - we are basically between them. Lots of roaring winds. One sent me running to the living room to check on the 'rents. It seems to have moved over us now. We are near gessner and bellaire.

Wind and heavy rain some lightning and thunder Clear lake City Blvd @ Hwy 3

[srainhoutx]

Update from Jeff:

Damaging supercell producing tornadoes extends from US 90 south to near Pasadena. Tornado Warning in effect for E/SE Harris County until 1000am. Strongest core of this cell will pass between I-10 and HWY 90 and may produce a tornado at any time.

Numerous reports of damage across Fort Bend County. City of Stafford is currently reporting several homes and office buildings damaged along Murphy Rd and Greenbriar Rd. FBCSO has numerous reports of damage from US 59 along Crabb River Rd to George Ranch HS (mainly fences and tree limbs down).

This continues to be a dangerous tornado situation along and E of I-45.

[CrashTestDummy]

The rain was pretty heavy about a half hour ago, but very little wind. I guess the big storms parted their ways before getting to us this morning.

Now, the wind is out of the north and it's 59 deg F in northern Brazoria County.

[davidiowx]

Appears there was a possible Tornado is Stafford. I work right next to Pentair and there is a lot of debris everywhere. The fence at my building was blown down too.
