SmokeEater Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I hope DFW is correct in issuing the svr warnings east of those tornadic cells and that they don't cycle once again. They're issuing TW's, they just issued the severe ahead of it first.

Srain Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I hope DFW is correct in issuing the svr warnings east of those tornadic cells and that they don't cycle once again. The major Dallas/Ft Worth network media outlets are cutting in with live updates. And NWS FWD does a fine job warning the public. This area is no stranger to tornadoes and severe weather.
