7:30 PM: Watching two areas of storm development.
One very nasty supercell. Large hail and a history of a tornado. Moving very slowly SE taking it's sweet time but lots of anvil lightning out ahead of it. So far that's it off the Dry Line.
Others have been expected to form but the CAP has been holding on the south side.
Second area is up in OK. It's farther north than was expected but lots of severe storms and a few tornado warnings. Those will eventually drop SE toward Red River N/NE of Dallas after 9pm.
