Yes. Similar events with dozens of deaths have occurred in the region - some recently. Flash flood awareness should be higher here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_Flood_Alley

Pretty bow echo in ETX has more bark than bite. Warned for 80 mph and the tornado sirens sounded in Longview. Don't think wind even hit 40 mph.

West Texas has certainly been active this week. It's been nice to see areas that need rain get it. Would like to see our friends in south/southwest Texas get in on more of it. Monday looks like an interesting day in the central plains, with severe threat progressing south/east through the week.

Luckily it did miss town to the north. Undoubtedly a few farmsteads were probably hit. Haven't really seen or heard of much damage though - yet.

Pretty strong wind with very heavy rain with the line that moved through Longview this morning. My boss's shed landed in my backyard. Fences are fine so it went airborne.

That Day 1 upgrade for tornado probabilities is concerning for NTX and S/C OK since it will be a late night/early morning threat. Hopefully storm mode stays messy and it doesn't get out of hand.

Tuesday is definitely on my radar for threat to my local (ETX) area, but the highest threat seems to be into AR and LA at this time. BTW - The dates should be 3/4 and 3/5.

Interesting satellite imagery... can someone explain what this feature is that is rapidly expanding north? Seems like some kind of mid-layer moisture (causing clouds) advecting northward?

06z GFS has the storm on Tuesday the 21st now. 18" of snow in deep ETX.

Around 5:30 pm we dropped to 31.8F and stayed there until a little while ago, rose to 32.2F. About the worst possible winter weather situation.

Agree. WAA/warm nose wins.

Might be something around/after New Year's Day... according to GFS.

Changes coming later next week, it seems. Just in time for my wedding weekend.

Pretty common in Longview. Too many trees next to above ground electric lines.

Luckily, none for me!
