    There's a line of storms from San Angelo all the way past I-10 to the southwest.

    At least Sterling City is a tiny, tiny town.

    Edit: Check that, the line of storms extends from San Angelo all the way into Mexico.

    Looks like my area is just missing all of this. Phew!

    The main threat seems to be skirting to the south of DFW.

    We dodged the tornado bullet for now (in fact, it hardly sprinkled overnight), but some big rain is moving in and there's a red box in the Hill Country.

    We could get up to 5" of rain and more floods, and we'll have to watch for more severe weather.

    We didn't get a drop of rain at my house last night. Windy as hell though.

    DFW airport has been closed since noon and will remain closed the rest of the day. American has cancelled somewhere in the neighborhood of 500 flights.

    We got WRECKED by rain today. Flash floods all over the place and high school games canceled galore.

    Winds and flooding, is my guess.

    Looks like another long night is brewing.

    It was 92 here today and has quickly cooled way down. A tornado watch just got put up for my area, in effect until 2 a.m.

    There have been tornado watches and warnings in effect all day throughout Texas.

    Tornado hit Breckenridge earlier tonight. More storms firing up out west.

    That storm is pushing one of two scenarios up our way. Heavy snow showers tomorrow, or heavy rain. One of our meteorologists said it will be rain, the other snow. I'll be interested in seeing which was right.
