Tornado just east of Grandview
Posted on 5/3/21 at 8:08 pm to Bobby OG Johnson
This storm in Texas looks to have a great hook, but then you realize that the rotation is not where the hook is.

that's a very colorful map

Well, now they’ve warned for the part of the storm with the hook.

Local news saying good possibility of two tornadoes there.
Also the sirens just started up

The sirens aren't for tornados anymore apparently. Just "general extreme weather."

They are almost always for tornados. They are used occasionally for straight line winds and heavy/large hail but not for just any severe storm.

True, but there's rotation tracking towards us. Hopefully it falls apart before getting here

I still haven’t gotten a drop of rain or any wind to speak of.

Ellis county / maypearl storm rotation starting to broaden.

If you’re lucky, that cell will stay south of you and you won’t see a drop. The little we saw formed really quickly and got real fast.

Strong rotation and a well-defined hook on this DFW area storm:


Posted on 5/3/21 at 8:50 pm to Roll Tide Ravens
Yeah that southern hook still looks nasty.
Posted on 5/3/21 at 8:50 pm to Roll Tide Ravens
I think there is a debris signature forming on this storm.
Posted on 5/3/21 at 8:51 pm to Roll Tide Ravens
Ah hell hook wrapping up a bit...

Your cell is tracking straight toward our home on Cedar Creek Lake after it passes you. Hope you stay safe and it starts to weaken.
