Wow, yet another Severe Thunderstorm Watch was issued, this one includes Denton county, does not include Collin county. This appears to be related to the dissipating outflow boundary that is still moving south across the region. Storms are kicking off along this boundary and there is still some severe potential left for the area. This watch expires at 3am CDT.
