NW Louisiana, including Shreveport, need to keep a close eye on things today. That watch may be PDS.

There's an old civil defense shelter nearby that is under ground level and has about three feet of concrete above it. D.A. owns it, I've already told him that is where I'm going if some F4 or F5 is rolling towards me - even if I have to break in LOL. Of course, I would only do it if it on the ground and approaching.

Tomorrow should be more of strong line of storms with straight line winds and flash flooding being the primary threats. The tornado threat looks highest later in the day in Alabama.

Yea, an F4 or F5 in the air is just one big pussyfart.

This NWS link used to be great - click on any state and get all the weather information. Then, they screwed it up. You have to click on the map, select the product you want (e.g. forecast discussion), then click the weather service city.

I wasn't trying to distinguish between in the air or on the ground. I was thinking I'm not going to break into the DA's private office for a storm "on radar" (I have several good places for that) or that wasn't on path for the office. There's a below ground room that is open but one side has chain link fence rather than a wall. It would be a good spot but for a big one there's a double door to get into the civil defense shelter.

The NWS Now app is great. Official NWS observations, forecast, warnings and discussion in an easy to read format. No ads, no clickbait, just the information. The radar feature is not as good as I would like, but it has everything else.

DISCUSSION...Radar/satellite imagery shows a band of elevated
convection extending from Pushmataha/Choctaw counties OK southward
into Kaufman/Navarro counties TX. Some increase in intensity has
been noted in the past hour, although activity remains sub-severe.
A substantial capping inversion was in place over this region at
12z, but the 18z FWD/LZK soundings indicate rapid cooling at the
base of the EML and a diminishing cap. Given current trends, the
thunderstorm activity may become surface-based in the next couple of
hours.
Strong low-level wind fields will remain in place ahead of the
convection, and may increase through early evening. Local VAD
profiles already show 0-3 km SRH values of 300-400 m2/s2 with
forecast soundings suggesting values over 500 m2/s2 this evening.
Assuming activity can remain semi-discrete, a few intense supercells
are likely to evolve. Parameters appear favorable for the risk of
strong tornadoes, along with large hail and damaging winds. PDS
wording is being considered in the tornado watch for this region.

If you need an estimate on your roof call Reno at Rain pro roofing and tell him Norm sent you. Great company and they will take care of you.
