So....am I correct in saying that the bulk of the storms are heading North towards Waller and Grimes (Brenham, etc.)? Or, has it slowed down and is still heading East? I'm over here in Humble with 700 kiddos....of course I'll be prepared but just wondering.....

Maaaaan so close to Spring I can taste it. I see Charlie Brown and that football, though, dang it!!!

(Thanks for all the great analysis, everyone!!)

Great break down wxman. I appreciate you taking the time to put that together. Hear! Hear! Just a word of thanks to you, 'Srain, Jeff, and *all* the great pros (and other wise guys\girls) who take the time to keep it honest; break it down; put up with our whining; post all the graphics (obviously f...

Thanks, Candy Cane. Duh....should've consulted NWS in Shreveport and Dallas. *blush*

so what you're saying is there's a chance.... :lol: I'm traveling Christmas Eve Night from Montgomery to Weimar, then from Weimar to Longview on Christmas Day so that snow on twisterdata maps would make for a picturesque drive. I'm planning to head to Kilgore\Longview on that Monday so I'm rather i...

srain WHAT DO THOSE MAPS MEAN WE CANT READ THAT STUFF ,WE ARE AMATEURS, I REQUEST THAT WHEN U POST MAPS,,PLEASE EXPLAIN THEM If you read under the picture in the bottom right corner, you'll see that it says "precip." That means the darker the colors the more rain is forecast to fall. The ...

Not cool, Belo.

Yup, I've been hating that....a lot!!! So, I found the main provider (Undertone) and found their Opt Out page.

I *really* hope Belo doesn't keep this up.

Will any of the storms around us have any effect on our winds? I'm southwest of the Magnolia\Hockley fires and the way they keep flaring up and growing I'd kinda like to know.....

I just read on another forum where burning ash and leaves are falling near Pinehurst and 149 on the East side of 249. As I live on the other side of Kuykendahl I'd like to know if it's progressing that way. I heard it was near Hooks airport last night. If the northern and southern fires merge around...

Anyone know about fire: Fire Name: Tamina County: Montgomery Start Date: 09/05/2011 Acres: 100 http://ticc.tamu.edu/Response/FireActivity/default.aspxPercent Contained: Unknown% http://www.yourhoustonnews.com/courier/news/williams-evacuate-sooner-rather-than-later/article_17d8b557-4bc8-5a9e-9229-62...

Veteran at 1960 area, smoke North through East. Is there a new fire I-45 and 1960? Satellite suggests it might be Houston County fire, unless something new has started recently. dtswildfire says it's around Hafer Road near 45 and 1960: http://tx.dtswildfire.com/ (it takes a long time to load.

Friends who live near the Ren Fair in Magnolia are telling of a huge fire, but I can't find any information about it anywhere. Have you guys heard of anything?

Please don't flame me for this as what's happening in Bastrop is just plain horrible...but.....in thinking of a typical California firestorm, and looking at how the Bastrop fire is bowing....and looking to it's somewhat proximity to Katy.....okay I know....a long ways away.....and thinking about fir...

I'll tell you one thing ... the Austin news media (outside of KLBJ radio) has really blown coverage on this. I'm getting much better, more current information on the fires via Twitter and via the Texas Storm Chasers Facebook page than from Austin TV stations (who are showing hours old video). Agree...

OMG thank you Katdaddy. We lost many people we loved and just about everything in an explosion in 2003 in East Texas. That house is the last of what we have.

If anyone has any information about the fires in East Texas....specifically in Gregg County. My 75 year old Mom is in the house I grew up in off of I-20. She just got the call that she is a mile away from the 1 mile mandatory evacuation zone. There looks to be *a lot* of fires in the area. Does any ...

I'm watching the rain fall apart here in Spring.....it rained some...then started to spit. Now the radar shows it drying up. Tell me that this isn't all there is? For what....sixteen days???

Rain has just begun at our house which is very close to 45 in Spring. Nothing spectacular but anything falling from the sky in a liquid form is a miracle at this point. I'm really worried about trees around our house and our foundation so here's hoping more is on the way.
