Roy Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Steve McCauley seems to think that subsidence to the west will limit things for DFW somewhat. But, I don't really see this in anything else. And moderate risk just to the south/southwest with boundary moving north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhamps10 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 We're getting sunshine now in west ft worth after that cell passed to the nw (picture coming of lowering) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba hotep Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 We're getting sunshine now in west ft worth after that cell passed to the nw (picture coming of lowering) I can see some decent clearing/thinning of the clouds to the S/SW now as well. It looks like the outflow boundary has possibly lifted as far north as just south of the DFW area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has, the cell in NW Tarrant county is probably causing the boundary to surge north a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 CBS11 says boundary is believed to be in southern Denton/Collin or so now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba hotep Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 CBS11 says boundary is believed to be in southern Denton/Collin or so now. Denton County cell looks to have kicked off an outflow that is moving SE and seems to be interacting with the old boundary. It looks like the old boundary is sagging across the north side of Ft. Worth? ETA: New Day 1 expanded to include all of DFW in Mod/10% ETA 2: Based on the Red River and terrain up north of Denton, I bet we are about to see a lot of Dots racing back down I35 towards the cell SW of DFW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well, I was hoping for some of the flooding rains to hit my part of North Fort Worth, but that didn't happen. Wanted to test the drainage in the new place. But, we have had plenty of rain this week anyway despite it being west of us most days. Glad no huge tornado hit the metro despite some smaller ones apparently doing damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard there was one yesterday in Cisco unfortunately. With the damage pics I guess it isn't that surprising. But yes, in general with so many millions of people and that much moisture around in May, it could have been worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
