03/31 NOW: TX / OK / MO / IL

[Ben Holcomb]

We've got a couple cams up on SevereStudios.com right now. David Drummond and Steve Miller are both headed south on I-35 towards the cell in Garvin County, OK

 

[Evan Stubbart]

Arygle, TX around 35W. I live in this area and there is a cell that has lowering and is looking very good. Nice structure from what I can see from my back yard. Anyone see anything here on radar?

 

[J.B. Dixon]

It looks as if the discrete cells forming down the existing line just E and SE of Ardmore could be the big play over the next couple hours. These cells are ahead and into better LL winds, thus the much better shear. Also firing right on the nose of 2500-3000 MLCAPE.

This is absolute brutal chase terrain, but the area from McAlester and points just south could see an impressive SUP or two over the next couple hours.

Interesting to see how this is unfolding, especially with the watch box in TX.

 

[Kyle Frisbie]

Sitting at the Microtel near the Winstar Casino right now, (between Gainesville and Ardmore) lots of cu's and anvils to the north and south, thinking about heading up and intercepting the Ardmore storm...

 

[Marc Austin]

Cell SW of Fort Worth, TX heading for southern Dallas, TX showing a TVS. This cell looks pretty stout and it's in a favorable area away from other storms. This is something to keep an eye on for sure.

 

[Bret Hendrickson]

Sirens sounding in south fort worth. Looks like cell is turning right and intensifying.

 

[Evan Stubbart]

Another area of interest that I'm going to go after is s cell around the 35W area in the Trophy Club area (Flower Mound) that is showing a bit of a hook on it now starting to develop...

Channel 8 showed a live shot of a large wall cloud starting to wrap up just a few minutes ago ( 3:45 pm or so). This was south east of Denton, near 121 and the tollway.

 

[Bill Tabor]

Currently in northern Waco, Tx (ACT) trying to make a decision. North to Hillsboro storm(s) or west to current Tornado warned cell. Thoughts?

Headed west I believe. Seems that cell is a hair stronger, though somewhat multicellular. Cells north seem to be weakening some and I don't see as much rotation at them moment. Thoughts? Headed now..

Hmm...big lake to deal with.

 

[Bill Tabor]

Turning s fm116 soon. Trying to beat core and area of rotation to Copperas Cove. Damn traffic!

ok made turn. 26 miles. hmm tvs . driving in rain

 

[Bill Tabor]

crap will be there at same time as tvs

Ok made it. Whew. No tornado in sight. View to inflow and downdraft thought

 

[Bill Tabor]

Not much to look at yet. Rainfree base on back side with multiple very small lowerings getting less pronounced. No sign of rotation. Storm may be cycling or simply weakening.

Well crap. Radar animation shows weakening and smaller cell now.

Hillsboro might have been a better choice after all. That cell is still showing rotation. Mine had a fling for awhile right before I got here. Might be Dairy Queen time now.

Looks like my cell is just disintegrating. Right when I get here.

What's going on here nowcasters? Is cinh too great? Somebody check mesoanalysis. Not sure I have the bandwidth.

 

[Andrew Stoller]

Steve Miller and David Drummond are both on the beast in southeast Oklahoma. They're both in position showing really good structure and a mean looking lowered base.

ps, is anyone else having an issue with severestudios crashing their browser when reloading? It's driving me crazy!

:edit: Steve Miller is in perfect position showing a nice rotating wall cloud with a clear slot starting to warp into the back.
