Severe Storm Alert for Tonight | WC Blogs

A very strong upper level jet storm system will move into DFW around 7-10 PM. This severe storm system will move in very quickly along with a cold front. This system could pack a punch with large hail, some high winds, and maybe a few tornadoes. Remember this storm will begin around Sherman Texas and will extend all the way as north as northern Arkansas and extend down towards Waco. This storm could be moving at a speed close to 25-35 mph which means it can catch many of us by surprise. Take a look at this Simulated Model Radar.

Simulated weather model radar for this evening and overnight. Strong storms are expected to form along a cool front from Oklahoma City to near Wichita Falls around dinner-time. Those storms will move southeast, probably forming a broken squall line this evening. That squall line will move southeast overnight - with a few stronger storms possible through midnight in Texoma, North Texas, and Northeast Texas. Storms should be below severe limits as they move into the Brazos Valley and Southeast Texas Thursday morning. — Texas Storm Chasers Radar
