Attention: North Texas and Ark-La-Tex

This evening's data indicates, per my 4-category risk scale, a "high" risk of tornadoes from north central Texas northeast to southwest Arkansas Thursday. This includes the DFW Metroplex. Some of the tornadoes could be strong. I expect the supercell thunderstorms to begin tomorrow afternoon

There is also the potential for very large hail and thunderstorm-driving damaging winds. 

I recommend preparing tonight and tomorrow morning. Make sure you make provisions for infirm relatives/friends and for people who live in mobile home parks. They should move to appropriate shelters when the tornado watch is issued rather than waiting until a tornado warning is issued. 

Of course, I will post updated information in the mid-morning.
