And as we, we walk through what's happening.
This literally just came on as e
camera lit up there just a moment ago.
So Jesse, let's put this on.
But here we are, all of Tarrant County.
We're starting to see some rotan
with this right now, but some sg
rotation is is present mostly.
And you could see the notch that we have here
on this and we've been watching this thing,
I pointed that out near
the top of the newscast.
We're starting to see just a
little inflow on this right now.
And this storm, Jesse,
let's put a track on that,
show where the rotation is if you can,
so we can point that out.
Folks, they're just kind of
northeast of downtown, if you w.
And right now, we do have sirens that
are being activated in Tarrant County,
those in Fort Worth right now,
there's our rotation right
where that notch is.
Arlington is also activating
the outdoor warning sirens.
So when you hear sirens right nw
being activated in Tarrant Coun,
I know they were activated on
the West side of Tarrant County.
Those were activated due to the
the baseball size, the golf bal,
tennis ball, baseball size, hai.
That did damage in Parker Count.
Weatherford had very,
very large hail tennis ball sized hail.
We did have a Mineral Wells hada
number of cars with Windows knod
out and also with mirrors that
were knocked off of cars due to
the tennis ball size hail there.
There's our rotation.
So this is just north of downtown Fort Worth.
It's getting ready to cross 199 shortly,
so let's zoom into that here,
let me, let me do this.
First of all, Haltom City arrival time,
let's put that track back on th,
Haltom City.
I think that was at 419,
so that's any moment now.
That track again,
it's moving off to the east at
about 35 to 40 miles an hour.
There's Haltom City, 421,
Richland Hills 424, Handley, 42,
pantego 436 and Six Flags 438.
Grand Prairie is 444.
So we'll take that track off rit
now and we'll put a I want to zm
in a little bit closer here if
we can just to show you exactly.
And Jesse, if you can,
if you can get that downtown Fort Worth
camera up for us and I know tha.
The camera it's located right here at,
it's pointed off to the east,
so unfortunately we can't rotate
it around and look to the north
or to the northeast.
But there's our Fort Worth camea
pointed to the east right now.
So the circulation is getting ready to cross.
Let's go back to the map.
The circulation is getting ready to cross.
We'll zoom in there getting reao
cross 35 W in just a couple of minutes
just north of the I30 interchan.
So here is.
30, there's 30, right 3030,
here's 35, here's 30.
So it's getting ready.
There's our circulation.
So it's this area right here tht
we're most concerned about, so.
Yeah, we have a shot from West Fort Worth.
Let's go to that right now and
let me show you what we have.
So that's the area. There's River oaks,
that's where we have rotation rt
now on the radar. And I don't k,
this is just West of Fort Worth.
It's kind of hard to tell what part of
the thunderstorm this is right .
Is this the backside or is it?
OK. Looking northeast, so.
That would be on the backside
of the thunderstorm itself,
the Super cell itself.
So that's just kind of a ragged edge of that.
I don't see any rotation there on that.
We do have a spotter that's in t
area as well that's just going
through the mix master in Fort h
reporting a lowering and rotati,
but no other reports from any
other folks at this point.
I don't see any any rotation I don't see.
I don't see any rotation. I don't see any.
Rotation or lowering there on that part,
that's not just scud clouds.
Let's come back to me.
Leave that camera up.
But let me, let me point a coupe
things out here in the studio if we can.
So let's.
Make the Chroma Key hot if we c.
There we are.
We do have a rotating wall cloud
right now that's being reported right
now by a chaser out in the fiel.
A rotating wall cloud.
Jesse, as I look at this,
maybe I see a little rotation.
I just don't know that we're looking at
the right part of the thunderstorm here.
Since we're W to downtown Fort Worth.
My fear is we're looking at the backside,
not the front side of the storm.
But I am getting a report from e
of our spotters out on the field
that there is a rotation there.
A rotating wall cloud just South
of River Oaks heading east of
just east of River Oaks Blvd.
Right now, this is not where that is.
And Josh,
Josh is our producer up in the control room.
Josh,
if you can talk to me and let me
know if if you can give me a pre
location on this meteorologist
Jesse Hawla here as well.
And Jesse, from this vantage po,
I I don't see anything that looks ominous.
But again,
I believe we're on the backside of the storm,
which is not the side of the stm
necessarily that would show the rotation
is are you seeing the same thin,
Jesse?
Yeah. So what we're seeing here is just Scud
and you've seen some of that upward motion.
You know, the upward motion with that too,
the rotation really kind of tightly wound
closer, a little bit closer to downtown.
So if we're looking, if we're oe
West side looking into the back,
we're just kind of seeing the
rear end of the Super cell.
You're seeing some of the upward
motion but not the rotating wall cloud.
Yes, Yep, that's that.
That was my fear
and that's fine. But the concers
on the other side of the thunderstorm.
So let's go back to the radar
and point that out and let folks
see just exactly where this is.
The Grand Grand Prairie right
now are activating.
Their sirens there.
So this is our area of concern.
I think that cameras probably back over
here looking at this side of the storm,
but this is the side of the
storm that we have our concern.
There's our rotation right here.
You see that, you see this hook,
that's where our rotation is.
So that's north of downtown.
So if our camera was over here,
let's say at 30 and 35,
right there at that interchange in downtown,
looking back, we could look in there,
we might be able to see some rotation.
Again, we did have somebody cross the mix.
Next mix master and they did
report a lowering in a rotation,
but I don't have any other repo.
By the way,
UT Arlington right now sounding
the outdoor warning sirens thats
activated for the tornado warnig
that's in effect in Tarrant Cou.
That tornado warning does go
until 5:00 o'clock tonight.
Grand Prairie has activated ther
sirens for the same exact reaso.
Fort Worth has the sirens activated right
now as well east of River Oaks right now, so.
There's our River Oaks,
and again,
just on the east side,
that's where we have our rotati.
