We're at Vista and there's 20 something kids, apparently Leander has 50 or so sick. Now back to the rain discussion 

Not much need for rain discussion since we all know it's never going to rain again.

And the softening of America continues.

Back in the day, because there was no social media, you could get away with ignoring weather warnings and get the occasional school bus full of kids wiped out without every Karen in the tri-state area hearing about it and losing her shit all over a school district's Facebook page.

Will be interesting to see if the sun breaks through later to really charge things up. Don't see anything near sunshine right now, but plenty of day left.

If we get a bunch of afternoon sun it will intensify those cells and could get ugly.

It's like two rats fucking in a wet wool sock out there.

East Texas now in Level 4 ("Moderate") risk.   That's crazy for this time of year.  Fully appreciate (as posted above) we've had tornadoes in November/December but feel like they typically spring up a. For example, I'm pretty positive we were in a level 2 in Dallas when that October 2019 tornado hit and nobody was focused on tornadoes.  I distinctly remember getting the tornado warning alert and being confused and checking to see if accurate.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Sounds like the shit is going to rapidly develop so keep an eye out.

Yep.  Sun peaking out now in Waco.  Not a good thing for this level of atmospheric energy.  

[gsoda3 3251]

Yeah feels really "springy" today

[hookemATL 11707]

Been raining pretty consistently in CP since this mornin. Didn’t expect to get this much before the big shit came through but I’ll take it. Sun still covered up and has not peeked through just yet. 

[4th&Five 41519]

Bright sun in Lakeway.

Austin seems like temperatures are lagging predicted temperatures by several degees, which I guess is why the "enhanced" risk of tornadoes is now pushing eastward.

Yep.  Even Waco area has gone from 95% rain chances down to like 35%.  But if it does, it gon be gud.   I guess this front is a litttle stronger than expected, and the overcast lid was on long enough along the I35 corridor to keep the energy pretty bottled up.  NE TX now in the extreme risk of severe weather when yesterday is was all in the modified risk.  

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Yep, development is likely east of 35.

[NorthLoop 14183]

What a crock of shit. Again. 

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Meh, with this one you had to be careful what you asked for. 

Going to be interesting tonight to our east.

[Biff Tannen 45665]

Got the alert for Travis County on my phone for 6-8pm.  No good?

[Wally Pryor 5261]

30s in the Panhandle, 90s in the Rio Grande Valley.

Texas.

Nah, we won't see anything. Totally fine with that this time around.

Not sure why you're upset we aren't getting any tornadoes over our houses here in Austin. We're still on the hook for a possible line of storms tonight. 

Anyway, there's tornadoes firing off in NE Texas at the moment.

Yeah storm spotters have confirmed one heading for Sulpher Springs. Fortunately these haven't been long track warnings so far. I hope that stays the same way for this one.

Fucking a. And here I am in ATX peeling my nutsack off my inner thigh due to the humidity.

The front just blew through beautiful Hewitt Tx.  It's glorious.

Yeah looks like we missed the real nasty stuff and just got the good shit.

Looks like thatbwas wishful thinking. KWTX weather guy just said it looks like the Paris tornado might've been on the ground for 100 miles into Southern Oklahoma.

[Pato del Muerto 52487]

Well that’s a wee bit foreboding 

[Wally Pryor 5261]

That's cool.

Looks like we may get a tiny, tail end kick out of this thing.  

[Pato del Muerto 52487]

[jimmyjazz 45893]

Son just called that he's under a tornado warning in Tyler.  Sirens, the whole deal.

Solid rain in NW Travis.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Yeah, we're going to get a little rain at least.

Damn! That came out of nowhere

[jimmyjazz 45893]

Looks like a little late action, so to speak.

[South Austin 52457]

Shit’s coming down, yo.

[Wally Pryor 5261]

Back porch, heavy rain no tornadic shit, frontal passage, bourbon in hand. 

Paradise.

[atomheartbevo 89630]

Lots of shit going down in North Texas

 

[NorthLoop 14183]

That Paris tornado passed a couple miles from the house I grew up in... so close to home? Looks like it hit a subdivision pretty hard.

[TwiceHorn 31440]

Looks like Dallas County, proper, pretty much avoided anything but rain.  Not even big winds or hail.

Some of the adjoining counties, south and east got some shit, and a little to the north.

I'm glad when these things blow through before or shortly after dark.  Seems a little more anxiety-provoking when you can't see green-grey skies.  Maybe it's the opposite though.

It started forming just SW of us about an hour ago. Got a little bigger than we probably thought. 

Just rain, fantastic.
