I want you to be ready for some thunderstorms Wednesday evening.
Tonight's data confirms what we have been talking about for a week now.
Heat, moisture, instability, and lift will all be present.
Tonight the Storm Prediction Center still has us under the "Slight" risk
category for tomorrow. All of the 0Z run is not in, but I am anxious to see
how strong the cap will be over us in the early evening hours.
Don't think you can't get tornadoes this time of year. They are not
exclusive to spring. Anytime the conditions are right you can get a spin up.
Models show a dryline will be near I-35 by 3pm with a strong cold front
a couple of hours behind.
I have spoken with a few of our spotters and most are ready to
dust off their gear and get rolling. Meteorologist George Flickinger will
roll in Storm Chaser 2, and Waldenberger and I will man weather center.
We often have a few fall severe events before winter sets in. This will be our
first, and perhaps our last before the patter changes and we start with
the winter weather. Whatever happens we will be ready.......
Dan
