Minor deal compared to elsewhere but a few decently strong storms fired on the east side of DFW with hail and strong winds, if sub-severe.  Areas of NE Texas might catch a few severe cells later on with the better atmosphere.

edit-  Tornado watch just issued for the far eastern metroplex and areas further east

Those storms near Mesquite exploded - and that's not anywhere close to the atmosphere that's primed for supercells. Yikes. 

NBC 5 has a fairly nice S Band radar SE of Dallas that can be viewed here:

SVR watch issued for a nearby storm, entering the Tornado Watch area

Mesoscale Discussion 0401
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0236 PM CDT Fri Mar 31 2023

   Areas affected...Central Arkansas

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 94...

   Valid 311936Z - 312000Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 94 continues.

   SUMMARY...A confirmed tornado is ongoing within the southwestern
   Little Rock metro area. Downstream environment will remain favorable
   for this tornado to continue.

   DISCUSSION...A tornadic supercell now entering the Little Rock metro
   area has shown increasing organization over the last 30 minutes.  As
   of 223 PM CDT a confirmed tornado was moving northeastward. The KLZK
   VAD shows strong veering in the lowest 1 km (over 400+ SRH). VROT
   was observed to be 74 kts. Given the environment and radar
   signature, this would suggest a likely intense (EF3) tornado.
   Furthermore the low/mid 60s F dewpoints downstream and unimpeded
   inflow, the expectation is for this storm to continue to pose a
   threat for potentially strong tornado over the next hour at least.
