I'm curious what other areas if any did you survey for damage other than the Parker County one.
That scene looks identical to a rain-wrapped meso Matt Sellers and I witnessed NW of Walters, OK on 5-4-01. We watched a feature just like this one, then moved north to pace it. Moments later, a large tornado became visible (already mature) through the wrapping rain curtains. From this picture, the tornado (as was with our 5-4-01 event) would've been in the far left side of the picture, or just off to the left. Since damage was reported, I'm curious if there was a tornado that never revealed itself to you guys.
David,
Great work! I did find it slightly confusing how you labeled the first SPC Day1 and Torn Prob graphics on there, though. You caption them by writing that they are the 1pm outlook. True, they are the 13z Day, which is 1pm UTC/Z time, but I think almost everyone uses 24-hour time when dealing with UTC. The first time I saw it, I thought you meant the 1pm Local time update (which doesn't exist, hehe). OBviously I know what you mean, and technically it is correct, but I just feel it were help clarify things if you either wrote 13Z or 7am CST ...
