Dallas is only in the "yellow" area for slight risk of severe weather. They are only predicting heavy rain, strong straight line winds, and small hail today and into tomorrow AM. Not a big threat of tornadoes or large hail.

If she is driving tell her to stay out of the right lane. The civil engineers use that lane for a drainage ditch between storm drain inlets...
Looks like your wife should only expect to get 4-6 inches.

Is it normal to have no audio on any of the feeds?

Yup. All up to the streamer. Some will have it on some will not. Some will have it on for a bit to talk and update you and then turn it off while they are driving and nothing is happening.

Last question(my apologies) is there a way to set up a notification such as "holy bat **** there is an actual event happening now" and get notified? I find this very interesting.

I'm getting a little nervous about all of the rain heading this way. It has been camped pouring in Kansas all day it seems.

Kind of a dud day for tornadoes. The twin tornado live from the helicopter was cool but now it’s a flooding event.

If anyone is interested there is a great weather podcast that happened to have their weekly recording during this event on Monday evening and had not guests so the spent the show doing kind of a "live" breakdown of it and what was happening, what may happen and what the issues at hand were.

Did Spann complain about people not being able to find themselves on a map?
