As the low pressure storm system that has been pounding west Texas slowly shifts east, our threat for both tornadoes and hail increase as more spin develops in the atmosphere.

In addition, no reason to think that we won’t see severe storms capable of dropping pea to ping pong size hail again just like Monday afternoon.
