Caps vs Pens tonight and Saturday... big 2 game set for both teams. GO PENGUINS!

Same. I'm looking towards next week (Tuesday in particular)... morning AFD discussed GEFS members showing 1000-2500 CAPE with some decent heat and humidity. Monday looks like a high shear/low instability event... though both EURO and GFS show 40-50 kts 0-6km shear, which isn't high shear, its more like optimal around here

Yay wind!

Valid 290001Z - 290130Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 120 continues. SUMMARY...A threat for very large hail, wind damage and possibly a tornado will move eastward into the San Antonio Metro around 8 pm central. DISCUSSION...The latest radar shows a cluster of severe storms located about 60 statute miles to the west of San Antonio. Ahead of these storms, the RAP is analying a pocket of strong instability with MLCAPE near 4500 J/kg and 0-6 km shear near 50 kt. This environment will be very favorable for supercells with large hail. Hailstones of greater than 3 inches in diameter will be possible with the stronger updrafts. Wind gusts exceeding 65 knots may also occur, with the possibility of wind driven hail. ..Broyles/Guyer.. 04/29/2021 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
