Nasty hook/notch on the leading edge of the tornado warned cell just north of San Antonio.

I was about to mention the storms moving towards the San Antonio and Austin metro areas.  I’m starting to get a little concerned about these storms, especially if they start showing hooks (and velocity couplets) on radar as you mentioned.

Maybe the severe weather will ramp up soon in far northeast Texas into southwest Arkansas, including the current tornado warning at Woodland TX/ Red River area. Otherwise... 30 severe reports so far would be a very low # of severe reports if things don't get active.

Not sure if it picked up on an extra boundary (or outflow) but yeah, seeing a lot of small hooks and kinks in the line now.

Looks like the southern portion is racing ahead so that part should. I'm in north central SA, watching closely. 

There seems to be a weak area of rotation East of Castroville and moving towards US 90 and West Loop 1604, nothing impressive though.  Will need to watch how it interacts with the outflow though.

It’s very unstable ahead of main line with excellent shear. As forcing increases farther East I would watch the next 1-2 hours for discrete development. It’s still relatively early in this event...biggest potential was never really until a bit later on. Outflow from this line could be a major focal point moving through these next several plus hours

No wonder....helicity is huge in Arkansas....up to 550 and 750.  Yikes!

Yes but storm mode is still "grungy" as it has been most of the day

once it starts that way it's hard to snap out of it..many outbreaks I have followed underachieved  because of it

 

 

80kt  kt LLJ later may have a surprise or two

That's about what I expected for today based on some of the issues I saw in forecast soundings. Storms have been intermittently severe with a few confirmed tornadoes, none particularly long-lasting or violent-potential-appearing (in contrast, to, say the 62-mile track beast of December 16th).

Not that warnings shouldn't be taken seriously, especially at night.
