Supposedly from the Del Rio storm

Christ...that is ridiculous!
We had hail up this way a few years ago that punched holes in house roofs! I didn't even think that was possible.

Saw that in OKC around 2011-2012
Hail went through the shingles, through the plywood, and landed in people’s living rooms

When hail is exceptionally large, what percentage of the hail that is falling at that moment and place is those giant pieces?

High Risk or does SPC wait for the morning update?

I watched softball sized hail literally bounce 6' off my concrete driveway a few years ago.

My money is on them waiting until the morning. It'll give them a little more time to see what's happening in Texas/Oklahoma.

The 04z HRRR run is looking pretty grim. The soundings behind that string of supercells is still showing PDS readings too, so that would suggest multiple rounds. Really hoping this is an outlier.

Off the chart or close to it...
The largest officially recognized hailstone on record to have been ‘captured’ in the U.S. near Vivian, South Dakota on July 23rd, 2010. It measured 8.0” in diameter, 18 ½” in circumference, and weighed in at 1.9375 pounds.
Mr. Lee Scott, who collected, the monster stone originally planned to make daiquiris out of the hailstone but fortunately thought better and placed it in a freezer before turning it over to the National Weather Service for certification.

Oh, I love the spring! It's better here in East Texas than it was in Oklahoma where I came from. I learned to recognize tornado paths through the countryside in Oklahoma. Since I've been back in Texas I've seen five tornado paths here in east Texas. Two for the unlucky souls who live in Alto, Texas.

can someone explain the sig severe area and how it differs from the percent areas? why does the sig severe extend between 2 different percent areas?

The probabilities remain the same, but there’s a chance in the hatched area for EF2+ tornados, 75mph+ winds or 2in+ diameter hail. Not to say those wouldn’t happen in the unhatched areas, but the ingredients line up better if those storms were to form there.

It’s crazy we’re on a tornado probability chart for a singular event that includes West Virginia, Virginia and Ohio.

Whelp looks like those models weren’t wrong

The convection over MS seems sort of messy? But there are definitely breaks for the sun to shine through so I’m guessing that could be enough to cause problems
