This is looking more like a flooding event than a bad tornado outbreak in the northern half of OK including OKC metro, but Wichita Falls, Abilene etc are not out of the woods for tornadoes. Less clear about DFW metro, but if there are tornadoes it’ll be at a bad time (very late night). Areas 50+ miles south of I-20 in TX are probably fine except out by Midland/Odessa.
Would have gone storm chasing if I was in the southern Plains tonight. Probably wouldn’t have been too fruitful.
Currently grounded on the runway in Dallas
The radars at Dyess AFB (near Abilene TX) and Frederick OK (NW of Wichita Falls TX) show storm tops up to 55,000 feet, and most aircraft can’t go above 41-43,000 feet. And they sure won’t be flying through these storms, nor do you want them to try.
If you’re stuck at DFW or if trying to get there you’re likely awaiting a reroute around these. It may be a while depending on destination.
