The storms are already firing up this morning with movement still very slow to the East.

They are training to the Northeast at 30 miles per hour and there is a lot of flooding, frequent dangerous lightning and high winds associated with the storms this morning.  

Severe T-storms and large hail is being predicted.  

As the daytime heating occurs, it is anticipated that the storms will turn ugly with long duration, multi vortex tornadoes.  These are not expected in our area today. With the highly charged air this could change on very short notice.  Stay tuned to your favorite weather sources throughout the day. Particularly on Monday and Tuesday due to the Eastward movement.

Looking at the map, I do see a line of widely scattered, light rain showers forming to our Southwest in the Huntsville, Livingston, and Jasper areas. Movement of those is to the Northeast also and could pass thru our area.

The National Weather Service has not posted a briefing for today, but with all the flooding and possibilities with the Dallas arrea storms movement toward the ArkLaTex region I do think they will schedule a briefing.
