Los Angeles gang – we have a line of thunderstorms approaching from the west with a few embedded kinks of spin. (We call this a QLCS, or quasi-linear convective system).
45-55 mph straight-line winds and an isolated tornado.
There's a waterspout risk too for offshore mariners.

SATURDAY, February 14 will feature the risk of cold-air funnel clouds or brief, weak tornadoes in southern Kansas, much of central/western Oklahoma and the Red River Valley of Texas.
With core of low pressure overhead, a little juice + ample vorticity (spin) could twist up a few weak funnels.

West Texas and western/central Oklahoma gangs – TONIGHT, Friday night, looks to feature some "elevated" hailstorms.
Storms will form on the cool side of a boundary atop a shallow layer of cool air.
No tornado threat, BUT we'll see a few cells with quarter- to half dollar-sized hail possible.

Tornado season ramps up markedly a month from now. But for the time being, enjoy the quiescence...

West Texas update for FRIDAY, February 13 – we still anticipate a few isolated hailstorms Friday night in West Texas and the Permian Basin. Only isolated severe thunderstorms are expected, but hail up to quarter or half dollar size is likely.

Ugh. After striking Madagascar as a Category 3 equivalent, Cyclone Gezani is AGAIN rapidly intensifying – this time over the Mozambique Channel.
It will come precariously close to Guinjata, on Mozambique's Manta Coast. We don't think a second landfall is likely though.

A great reminder that we display TFRs in the MyRadar app. Just select our aviation layer mapping!
(Incidentally, all related TFRs in Texas have been lifted. What was initially believed to be a malicious adversarial drone was later found to be a party balloon per local media.)

Early signs for some severe weather on SATURDAY, February 14 over central/east Texas, particularly along and east of I-35. LA and perhaps SW AR risk too.
An approaching upper-air disturbance will kink the jet stream, causing a dip known as a "trough". Ahead of it, warm, humid air will waft north.

Look at the eye of Gezani begin to shrink as it moves ashore in Madagascar.
This is because the storm is weakening a bit, so the eye will soon "fill in."
Plus friction on land slows down the rate at which warm, humid air can spiral into the eyewall.

WOW! Cyclone Gezani has swallowed the entire city of Toamasina, Madagascar – home to 326,000 people.
The whole city is in Gezani's eye right now!
The worst flooding will be to the left, or south, of the center. That's because the storm is in the southern hemisphere and is swirling clockwise.

Truly a surreal model output here from the high resolution NAM.
The dark blue is SNOW (a SNOW SQUALL at that) near Tampa early Sunday morning (around 2 AM).
What we normally see in Buffalo, NY seems highly likely in FLORIDA but instead of the Great Lakes, it’s the Gulf!
