Areas affected...North Dallas Metropolitan Area
Concerning...Tornado Watch 676...
Valid 210208Z - 210245Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 676 continues.
SUMMARY...Tornado is currently ongoing across northern Dallas
County. The environment is supportive of a strong tornado, with
additional tornadoes possible downstream in the next hour or so.
DISCUSSION...Recent radar signatures from KFWS reveal an intense
supercell characterized by a 0.5 degree rotational velocity between
60 and 65 kt. A tornadic debris signature has also been noted on
recent radar scans. This signature is occurring in an environment
characterized by STP between 3 and 4. Previous signatures within
similar environments produced damage-estimated wind speeds from 120
to 160 mph and a confidence is high for an intense tornado.
