PDS tor on the moss hill storm
 
Wow, things really got cranking while I was away. Fading TDS on the northern cell, likely we'll see a drop on the southern one soon.

What do you happen to notice? My radarscope is quite messy.

Lots of broad rotation over Houston, I don't think anything is down at the moment, but to the SW there is some small clearing out that these cells need to pop.

EDIT: As I was writing this there is a SVR warning for Houston

SVR warning. Surprised it hasn’t gone TOR yet.

Velocity isn't all that impressive. It has the look on reflectivity and there is definite rotation, but I don't see enough to justify a TOR at the moment. No tight couplet and relatively unimpressive winds.

With that being said, given the large population, I would have no problem with a precautionary TOR warning.
