This could get interesting about a hour or two from now. The one thing that will more than likely limit tornado development today/tonight will be very high Liquid Condesation Levels.

High LCLs are the new norm. ;)

Storms seem to be going into a cluster with disorganized HP characteristics and hail. Hail near Springfield CO and Raton NM, and maybe Taos NM. I'm not sure how this cluster will evolve, since light precipitation is on the front side (east.) Perhaps heavier cells will develop east and south of the cluster, replacing the light rain.

the storm in ne looks nice but it's pretty low topped. the stuff in se co area looks pretty blah. i guess all the dots that didnt bit on that are hoping something fires lbb area or west.. may be some sign that it's happening tho looks sorta meh so far.

storms sw of lubbock in e nm went up fast. the environment looks pretty solid if something can become dominant

another incredible supercell near Clovis, NM right now with a tornado reported by emergency managers. this thing is a beast! according to mesoanalysis, the storm appears to be in an enhanced area of wind shear. small pocket of 0-1 helicity of 150. very unstable in that area to. possibly might be following a cape/cin gradient.

We were on that LP supercell near House, NM through Clovis last night. Had a brief mothership appearance, very cool indeed, but no tornado as long as we were on it. Although there was some very suspicious scud at one point, it disintegrated almost immediately. There might have been a tornado after we bagged due to darkness though, as its appearance on radar tightened up very nicely when the LLJ kicked in.

Talking to EMS crew at a gas station, they said there was a house of questionable construction blown down in Melrose.

I make no claims of being a serious photographer, as my skills lack in that department. I simply take the pictures to document what we see.
