Getting very heavy rain and lots of lightning and thunder with this .... but the winds were nothing like they were yesterday. We've had some power flickers too.

Numerous trees down in our neighborhood Settlers Way and Hwy 6. During the height of the storm I estimate winds gusts to 65 mph and we had quarter sized hail. Power just came back online 20 minutes ago .... That was one wicked storm. Visibility was cut to zero at the height of this storm as well.

Wow ... I am shocked and saddened to hear this Dan. My family will pray for you and yours. We are all rooting for you. Get well soon.

Gene certainly seemed concerned about it on the 6PM newscast tonight. We'll have to see how this evolves. Like Dr. Frank always says never write it off til it's well inland and dissipated.

That is awesome. Congrats WxMan ....this weather forum board continues to get better and better. I am proud to be apart of it and always look forward to Wxman's insights. Congrats again .... it is well deserved.

I think TD 5's track by the NHC is right on. I do not see this track moving westward over time. As always with tropical systems it's always a good idea to keep an eye on it until it is well inland and dissipated.

I was on Lake Conroe last evening/night ....that was one awesome light show those storms put on. Only got sprinkles where I was at but the outflow created some nice cool winds. It was refreshing and awesome.

wow that was a quick turn of events.

Looks like we may be getting into a training situation for this afternoon again in Brazoria, Matagorda, Ft. Bend, Wharton, and eventually into S/SW/NW Harris County including parts of the Houston Metro west of Downtown ... just based on radar trends .... doesn't look too good. Would not be surprised...

Somebody is going to get dumped on overnight ..... Feel that the ongoing flood threat is going to get worse.

I have to chuckle at the term "Within the Hurricane Warning area" in this update and disco.

Alex has certainly slowed down,,,,,, looks like more of a slow WNW component as well but crawling.

could be a wobble though

I think it's gonna move in before 7PM Tomorrow .... Alex would appear to be really movin right now.

I do believe it'll hit to the left of the current track. Would not be surprised at all to see the track shifted south in the next advisory at 4. For us here in SE Texas rainfall is going to be a big issue due to the influence Alex has over a large area.

I do believe we will see a blow up overnight tonight

Talk about slow moving storms ....these are crawling. Got the front lawn mowed but gonna have to wait on the back yard.
