Slight Monday through Wednesday. Looks like some 2% and 5% chasing, a forecaster's market for sure. This time of year the right target selection can be very rewarding. Too bad I'm not in the field.

Today (Monday) a surface boundary may be lining up with Raton Mesa. I tend to like it when geography and meteorology line up. Otherwise farther north in upslope flow both the DCVZ (Palmer Divide) and Cheyenne Ridge are possibilities.

71mph (62kts) max gust at Love Field (KDAL) which also suffered a total power failure because of the storms. 

1 confirmed fatality so far from the tower crane that snapped and collapsed in Old East Dallas, just NE of downtown. 

KPMG Plaza suffered numerous broken windows from falling/flying debris from the adjacent Hall Arts Residences that's under construction in the Arts District.

Countless large trees, some over 100 years old, toppled in the Prestwood/Preston Hollow area of northern Dallas.

Pretty sure I saw the crane when I was in that area yesterday. Also a billboard toppled over on a gas station just by Love Field. It was nasty here. Going to check PWS when I get home and see what it recorded but it tends to undervalue due to nearby trees, houses, etc. Some people at work who drove through it thought it could've been a tornado but it's easy to confuse when you have wind blowing rain at your windshield at 70+mph.
