WxSynopsisDavid Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 23 minutes ago, Chinook said: Dallas has a 64 dew point, up from a dew point of 17 yesterday (2:53AM on April 1st). It's just amazing how that works. That is a rather impressive increase in dew points in short order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mob1 Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Looks like something is developing east of Gainesville, could probably use a TW soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 I think the storm near Stephenville has transitioned from being mainly a hail storm to maybe getting a bunch of rotation right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 There are storms on every side of Dallas/Fort Worth. Several new small storms are popping as potentially a new group of supercells. Maybe one of those could become dominant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydney Claridge Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Possible rotation trying to form in the Newark and Rhome areas? Seems like the Tarrant/Denton county line needs to be watched very closely just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Here is definitely a bounded weak echo region with the supercell shape and tornado warning. It seems like the velocity data has just been showing convergence rather than an easy-to-view mesocylone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I think this is a sneaky non-TDS as the velocities aren't very high. Any thoughts?

cstrunk Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I chased the Stephenville, TX supercell - what a beautiful storm. No tornado. I'll get some pictures posted when I get a chance. *Edit - here's a sneak peak: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherextreme Posted April 3, 2023 Author Share Posted April 3, 2023 Added 4/3 for potential sleeper North/Central Texas... Moderate to strong buoyancy and 50+ kt of deep-layer shear will support a conditionally favorable supercell environment along/just ahead of a dryline late this afternoon and early evening over parts of north/central TX. Near-neutral mid-level heights with minor downstream ridging is expected across the dryline. This area will also be well removed from a deepening upper trough across the western CONUS. Low-level convergence along the dryline should remain weak, but could be relatively maximized in the early evening across central TX as the dryline starts to retreat. Some 12Z convection-allowing models suggest a thunderstorm or two may briefly develop. However, uncertainty remains high regarding a particular location. Any sustained supercell would pose a conditional risk of all severe hazards, but large hail is likely if a thunderstorm can form and be sustained. Given the uncertainty in whether any convection will initiate given the negligible large-scale ascent, will maintain low severe probabilities with this update. But, observational and short-term model trends will be closely monitored for a possible upgrade to Slight Risk at 20Z, if warranted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
