Who is chasing in northern Mexico today? Looks active in parts of Chihuahua and Coahuila. This heightened tornado threat area creeps into Texas.

This event is likely only getting started and there's already no shortage of spectacular chaser photos/footage.

I particularly would like to see what it is doing underneath this storm.

Very strong couplets on the cells in Mexico and Nebraska. Likely tornadoes ongoing in both areas.

Looks like Bartlett storm is still producing.




I wonder how many tornadoes will have touched down once this event is over. Seems like a fairly significant outbreak in eastern Nebraska.

That cell is bad news. It's completely isolated from the main line of storms and will likely continue to produce tornadoes of quite some time.

And continuing to turn right.

That cell is bad news. It's completely isolated from the main line of storms and will likely continue to produce tornadoes of quite some time.

It's also following right where the HRRR placed a nasty UH streak in its previous model run...

Pawnee City storm might be cycling.

Dodge County storm is also rotating faster.
