Seeming more likely that for Austin, this will be another big nothing. You should throw out that app. Meanwhile, Jim Spencer is out by the West Travis storm, says tornadic activity is developing. Should miss me (whew!) but wlll tag Briarcliff and West Lakeway. Even if not tornado very very strong winds and hail.

Downtown and just settling in till this passes, hoping we don't lose power at the office.
March 21, 20223 yr Twc just zoomed in on a cell over lakeway and tried to see a hook on it. Headed NE so path would be lago vista cedar park gtownish.
March 21, 20223 yr Besides this thread where is the best place to tune in for live updates for Austin?

IIRC, Lakeway and Helotes were the 2 southernmost F4 tornadoes in the US since reliable records started in 1950. Same for Jarrell and F5's. All the rest were north of a line from near Brownwood-Waco-Shreveport-Vicksburg-east. Meanwhile, gotdam: * At 458 PM CDT, a severe thunderstorm was located near Lipan, or 11 miles west of Granbury, moving northeast at 80 mph. HAZARD...60 mph wind gusts and quarter size hail.

March 21, 20223 yr Tornado warning east of Wimberly, moving towards Southpark Meadows, extreme S Austin, headed for S/E extreme metro parts, Del Valle. Confirmed tornado, no info on strength, but take cover SE parts of town/county. Edited March 21, 20223 yr by phdhorn
March 21, 20223 yr I'm in the gap here between dripping bee caves and Austin. Only some wind and rain so far but sun just poked through

March 21, 20223 yr Wimberley tornado headed for Austin but might veer and strength uncertain. Another rotation possible future warning around Hudson Bend, headed for Cedar Park. Take care/ready to cover.
March 21, 20223 yr Jacksboro got hit at the high school. No reports yet. Supercells headed for ft worth at 6pm
March 21, 20223 yr Wimberley tornado has weakened, but keep watching for hail and strong winds into south Austin and environs.

However Drip/Bee Cave put into the possible (but less likely) path of the tornadic/hail storm from Wimberley.
March 21, 20223 yr I'm at Slughter and Manchaca and am battening down the hatches.... hoping it skirts southeast of me
March 21, 20223 yr Jim Spencer relegated to the Storm Tracker mobile is so him. Dude "retired" two years ago and I think he's been on the air ever since. Lulz.

March 21, 20223 yr Big ass storm making a bee line for metro area. Let's see how well-built those new multimillion high rises are.
March 21, 20223 yr Austin about to get dry slotted lol Dry ass SW winds here in SA. We got fucked. At least we got like 0.1” No rain in sight on the forecast. Thanks La Niña. Edited March 21, 20223 yr by Loop 1604
March 21, 20223 yr I see this nasty line with not much behind it. Is this shit going to bubble up all night or are we just dealing with this front as far as hail and heavy shit?
March 21, 20223 yr After this line, severe threat will be mostly over, although rain could continue into the night here/there.

At one point we were under 2 tornado warnings and the sun was shining.
