Today we really need storm 2k site up…. I noticed it was down last night. It's my go-to for storm tracking.

Storm2k has been down since last Sunday. Not sure what is up with them. I sent them a note but haven't heard back.

Morning clouds burning off. Atmosphere is priming big time

Lots of big events today too. Rangers, Taylor Swift, Women's Final Four, Indy Car.
That's what I was thinking about too; lots of people not from the area are going to be out and about today, could be a disaster.

And 2k is back up. Give it a few hours for the regulars to roll back in.

Find pow ponder on face book. He's live covering it.

Weather app saying storms won't happen until 6pm. I'm in north Dallas. What's everyone else seeing? I just got back into town and need to get back out to get some food and run an errand but sure as hell don't want to get caught in this.

[Edit: Disregard! Looks like it's coming in earlier than expected?]

WFAA is estimating 4-8pm for Tarrant, Dallas & Kaufman Counties west to east, so I would guess 5:30 or 6:00 would be a good guess.

Look at radar. Cap is gone. Anywhere from 4-8.

In case people (not you) wonder where the tornadoes are, the sirens are for hail not for tornados.

I talked my 3 & 5 year old girls into moving to the back porch to finish their movie and watch the rain. Hadn't been out there 2 minutes when that enormous lightning strike hit down in Addison. My oldest was looking right at it when it popped.

Thing 1 erupted into tears while Thing 2 thought it was the coolest thing ever.

Well, that was anti climatic in my area. Got some very light rain for about 4 mins and all done it looks like.

There is a second round expected between 6-7 I think. At 8 we are all clear

Ah. I see it now. Thanks for pointing that out.

First round was expected to be elevated and relatively low risk. Some folks still got pea to golf ball hail.

Round two later. Specifically any discrete cell later will have big hail and tornado risk.

We had marble sized hail in West Plano for about 1 minute…
Let's see if Round 2 materializes

In Arlington right now - blue skies and cool air temps but still humid. We're not out of the woods yet? Walking into AT&T in about 30 mins

Even the second round looks like it will go north & south of the main metroplex.

What happened with the tornado over lake limestone? We were on 45 looking at it at the time.

I think it lifted back up as it passed over Buffalo, then touched back down again just south of Palestine.

Lifted over Buffalo.

There's a storm that just went severe on south side of Irving. Can't figure out if it wants to go into Dallas or down to south Dallas county. Golf ball hail with that

Dfw all done for the night.

Let's hope the tornadic storm rolling down south misses College Station.
