ⓘ About this map

Outlines: NOAA/NWS · Radar cells: IEM/NEXRAD. Outlines are warned areas, not storm paths.

Interactive imagery loads separately. Missing radar does not remove warnings or imply clear weather.

Change time or forecast product

Recorded weather · gaps are marked. Coverage begins with recording activation.

Live sources keep independent clocks.

Replay coverage and interpretation

Rolling target: 24 hours; cells: six hours. Radar: NOAA MRMS national overview, 8-minute tolerance. Satellite: original GOES GeoColor day/night picture, hourly sampling, 75-minute tolerance. No interpolation or latest-image fallback. Warning and source checks retain their own clocks. “Recorded by” is collector acquisition evidence, not exact browser publication history.

Current GLM density, velocity and specialist layers are hidden during replay. Snow uses retained footprint metadata with unverified pixel time. Forecast uses one pinned issuance/run and exact valid time.

No observed replay frame displayed.

Area, source times and interpretation

Current cached context, independently dated. Regional reference: TX; a reference within a wider monitoring area does not replace the complete warning geography. This section remains separate from the historical replay cursor and official cyclone forecast. Use Forecast to pin a retained model package.

Soundings: what weather balloons measured

SPC’s skew-T diagram and hodograph of the sounding at Buffalo, NY (BUF), 12Z. Its levels are in the table below. — Observed Sounding at Buffalo, NY (BUF), for 12:00Z (1 h 20 min ago). SPC’s graphic; the values in its panels (CAPE, shear, the indices) are SPC’s computations from these levels. Data: NOAA/SPC.

A balloon launched about an hour before the time named, measuring as it rose and drifted with the wind: the atmosphere above one place, at one time. Model soundings, which are forecasts, are not shown here.

The levels this sounding was drawn from (60)

Buffalo, NY (BUF): the surface first, then up through the atmosphere. Temperature and dew point in °C, as measured.

Monitoring area details

Area: Texas (NWS states: TX)
Hazards: Tornado, severe thunderstorm, flash flood, river flood, areal flood, coastal flood and other warnings, watches and advisories, and the forecasts for them
Window: In force now, with the next days of SPC’s and WPC’s products
Made by: This site’s operators, in its admin console. Nothing about a reader is stored. Watch another area

An area the operators chose, not a storm’s footprint: everything here is in force in this area, never “from this event”.

In force in this area

No warning, watch or advisory for these hazards is in force in this area.

NWS’s alerts checked 13:20Z: a successful check, so this is none in force, not “can’t tell”.

NOAA/NWS/NOHRSC’s original picture and legend. No station or address value is inferred.

Coverage and interpretation

Source-rendered snow depth and snow water equivalent for the lower 48. History changes this snow picture only; warnings and radar keep their own clocks.

NOHRSC footprint times are metadata; pixel analysis time is not independently verified. Snow-depth pixels have previously differed from the footprint time. This is modeled/assimilated snow analysis, not a measurement at a place. Unshaded and no-data areas do not establish zero snow.
