I take credit- first day living in Arlington haha. Nice looking cell though!

If it's not careful it might miss us. The polygons must not be able to bend more SW to NE.

The main line formed along a narrow axis of instability and was aided by the terrain...now that it's east into more meager CAPE and an atmosphere that was overturned by previous convection it should collapse pretty quickly.

Pouring here with thunder/lightning... So, um oops?
