Re: May 2024

It’s, in large part, the latitude of the Houston metro area. While only a few degrees difference, the lower latitude often precludes some low pressure systems from the Midwest from reaching as far south as especially the coastal areas. There is a marked difference in relative humidity % between Hou...

Re: May 2024

It does rain here a lot, but I thought the Houston area got just as much, or at least similar. Beaumont gets 65 in of rain/year like Louisiana. IAH sees 51 inches/year. Hobby sees 55 inches/annum on average, Galveston sees 47 inches/year. Moving SW or NW of Houston, things dry out fast as we enter ...

It's feast or famine. 3.83 inches from the latest MCV this morning. That is 10.24 inches of rain for the week! Welcome to Texas! We'll continue to see a ramping up of extremes in Texas over the coming years. Longer periods of drought in the summer and more flooding rains. Stratton - you must be thi...

I’m afraid that’s what it’s gonna take.
There is potential for sea breeze showers in May to mid June. We'll see.

Wednesday - Friday has a 30-50% shot of rain each day, including the coastal areas like Angleton.

You need a boat to go down Hwy 21.

6.4 inches IMFY as things kept backfilling. Over half a foot - feat or famine. It's going to feel like NOLA tomorrow.

It probably won't rain all summer again...but will enjoy the green while it lasts.
