Like most of you, I've been watching the Thursday-Friday setup develop the past couple of days. Strong Gulf moisture returns, eastern trough digging in, shear profile looking increasingly classic.
The more people who are weather-aware, the safer we all are as a community.
That's the idea behind what I've been building for the past 12 months. It's called Vortex, vortexwxpredictions.com — a platform where you can trade markets on exactly this. Live tornado warnings, flash flood markets, hail reports, etc., NWS-driven, auto-resolved.
It's a prediction market wrapped in a situational-awareness platform.
Paper-trading only for now. Starts with $1k practice balance.
Timed this launch for a quiet week on purpose. Didn't quite work out.

Tonight was the real test.
Tornado outbreak across OK/KS/MO/IA. 376 active NWS alerts at peak, warnings upgrading minute-by-minute, confirmed dangerous tornadoes on the ground. Still ongoing.
Vortex was live the whole time — 335 prediction markets, pricing in real-time.
This is what I've been building for.

Thursday we may work the dry line from central KS/NE into Iowa, then settle down into the southern Plains for three days of severe weather and #tornado threat including here in Oklahoma. The #tornado threat expands into Dixie Alley by Monday.
Stay tuned as we nail down precise target areas for this uptick of severe weather
