Sitting in Bastrop, TX.  All the moisture streaming north is really evident on the drive in and on the radar.  We'll see if anything discrete can happen along the southern portion of this mess or out in front.  I'm not too hopeful, but even with a line maybe I can snag some cool lightning pictures.  

 

Also, every stream,creek, or river I passed in on the way from College Station was EXTREMELY swollen and well outside its normal banks.  Really troubled at the possibility of training cells at the southern edge.

I presently have concern for the comma head area storms east of Guthrie and moving north. Always a good location for tornadic activity in a situation like this. Will see what develops.

That little appendage by Newcastle & graham needs to be watched, if not warned.

Just saw this, but apparently a deadly tornado struck Ciudad Acuna in Mexico earlier (across the border from Del Rio), killing at least 10 people.

 

I remember seeing a supercell intensifying and approaching that area before I went to bed last night.

The lampasas cell looks pretty stout now, luckily its got a lot of wide open country in front of it....classic radar return

Yeah-lucky these cells pulsed up in the relatively desolate Hill Country instead of far more populated areas on I-35. Heavy rain is definitely preferable to one of those large tornadoes slamming into Austin or another large town.
