Taking a look at the FWD 00Z sounding:
A supercell did fire just west of Abilene though. It was a beast and probably had a rain-wrapped tornado at one point. Here is a screen grab from GRLevel3:

4/21/2011 Chase
Well, had to pick up some nasonex for Ayden over in Benbrook and then I headed west on I-20. Took 180 towards Mineral Wells and got there around 5:30. Decent cu field began to disintigrate over the next hour. The cap was just strong enough today. The warm front became diffuse and the sfc convergence was not strong enough to get things going in N TX. I thought that being a bit west might help if we received some subtle upper level support. Didn't happen. Decided to head home around 6:30.
Taking a look at the FWD 00Z sounding:
Just enough cap today to keep storms from firing. CIN of -51 J/kg. Frustrating because it looked like a decent tornado chance today if storms were to fire along the warm front. First cap bust of 2011!
