The storms in the dallas area are training from southwest to northeast. It appears that flooding is going to be a main concern as they continue to follow this track and more storms develop to the southwest. Storm totals are already approaching 3-4inches in many areas.
Flash flood warnings are posted all along the line.

Anyone check out the Fort Worth NWSFO current warning and synopsis graphic on their main page? Its different from any other I have seen and really well put together.
