15:43 RADAR update

Severe threat is increasing across portions of North Texas. Expect additional severe and tornado warnings to be issued soon.

We want to EMPHASIZE that VERY LARGE HAIL (up to 4.5") is the main threat with storms this afternoon. The tornado threat is lower overall, but not zero. Storms will be occurring during rush hour; please stay home this evening if you can! #dfwwx #texomawx

TUESDAY - TORNADO WATCH Issued - EXPIRES 9pm 4.00”+ hail 70 mph Wind

Please use common objects and calipers or ruler/scales when measuring #hail. It is best to also take a photo of significant stones and upload them to the NWS FWD (or TXWX tag) social media.

You still have time to make a #hail pad if you have access to the supplies. Pink foam and aluminum foil. Mark north and location (in case it blows away and for photo evidence). This is screwed down with a square 2”x12”. Not just free floating foam, and into the wood frame.

Corrected. 12:02 Tuesday. The SPC has gone with a Moderate risk for very large #hail today. The covers all of the metroplex.

12:00 Tuesday - Not necessarily more storms. Confidence growing on the threat for very large hail.
