Nada here. I'm afraid that could be a more and more common outcome for CLL.

Starting next week we will start transitioning to a wetter pattern as we enter April.With a stalled frontal boundary acting as a focal point for on and off showers and storms multiple days next week.

The front should be located closer to the coast. Only a 20-30% chance for us.

Maybe next weekend with another front.

Almost all tornadoes travel SW to NE. Just stay south or west of it. Can’t be that difficult. I’d love to do it.

I chased when I was at A&M in the early 2000s. It’s such a rush.

Cpv17 mistakes happen sometimes, even though we know how tornadoes move they can still be unpredictable, luckily that mistake didnt result in a death, plus it was at night time when its harder to see one coming, definitely a big adrenaline rush chasing those things for sure

80°F today, but a DP of 35°F. 10 mph breeze.

I'll take that that all year long! Give me half an inch to an inch of rain a week and it would be perfect.

Actually, that cell around Coldspring needs to be watched. Has some weak rotation in it right now.

Not much around here, but the cell pounding Livingston is pretty intense.

So much for sunny and dry! :lol:

Supercell has a well-defined WER and is veering right. Rotation is getting better defined too. This thing is about to drop something.
