Beautiful mini-supercell just to my north, totally sub-severe but great for seeing the anatomy of a supercell, rain-free base on the left, rain core on the right, I can even see the updraft, pretty sweet.

PS not even sure its a bonafide mini-sup but the presentation of the storm looks just like one so it's okay. SE moving storm.

Had numerous reports of a cold air funnel today and two flood advisories. Borger got 1.66" of rain mostly in a few hours... that's the same city that got 1.38" in a day earlier this month.

HRRR tries to develop a discrete (super?)cell just north of here.

Hour prior to the development. Pathetic low-level wind speeds but more than enough directional shear and perhaps enough deep-layer shear for a supercell.
