The storms in northeastern Oklahoma continue to look less and less organized, with the strongest storm northeast of McAlester accelerating and racing off into the mountains. In southern Oklahoma, a storm near Ardmore is looking a little better, taking on a slight supercellular look. South of the Red River, elevated storms continue to fire and die along the dryline, which is now within 30 miles of the western edge of the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

With max heating still an hour or two away, anything can happen, but what appears on radar to be a wind shift line currently moving through DFW - ahead of the dryline - is veering surface winds to the southwest some, perhaps killing surface convergence. Thus, I think the chance of surface-based storms firing along the dryline before it reaches DFW is decreasing.

Once the dryline enters DFW, I'll pretty much be standing down. After a long week of chasing, both in the field and in front of the computer (armchair chasing, if you will), I'm looking forward to the quiet days to come. Need to do some housecleaning, laundry, and so on, as well.

Next possible chase day right now looks to be Wednesday, although the next truly big system won't approach the Plains until closer to the weekend. Nothing is set in stone, of course, but the coming week should be nothing like the past week.
