Looks like a line of storms has developed in the last 45 minutes just west of the DFW metroplex. Currently the storms are about 45 miles west of Frisco, with general storm motion bringing them east at 30kts. This puts the line’s ETA to Frisco around 10:15pm or so. These storms just kicked off and a few are producing small dime sized hail. This line is young and headed into a high wind shear environment with good dew points, so there is still definately a severe potential in these storms as the develop. There is still a tornado risk tonight as well with the best chances of a tornado developing within the line of storms. There are some moderate winds showing up on radar in these storms too but nothing meeting severe criteria yet.

I will continue to provide updates as needed tonight.
