Nothing at my house yesterday. Here is hoping to some rain today.

I will when I can. Gotta work where the jobs are at though, and being a chemist in Houston dictates a lot.

Looks like it may be time to consider moving. I've gotten to where I completely hate everything about the weather in Houston these days. 6 months of summer, 1-2 weeks of fall, 2-3 weeks of winter, and then a short spring isn't very exciting.

Did the cfront stall out? Originally it was supposed to blow through this morning, bilut it still sucks outside.

Im betting on no freeze this year again. I sure hope we dont have another Christmas in the 80s with near 100% humidity though.

Well, at least some cooler stuff filtered in last night so that takes care of that piece. Hopefully some rain comes through this week. The yard sure could use it.

Honestly, I don't mind prolonged dryness from the October-April period; in fact, I wouldn't complain if Dec-Feb all were desert dry, with nothing but sunshine. As long as the summer/warm season is wet, the rest of the year doesn't matter. Badly need some rain though, especially as folks try to get ...

This hot / drought condition needs to go away.

Lots of (ignorant) people saying mets cried wolf on this. The worst stuff is on the NE side like always and is offshore. The carolinas arent gonna be so lucky tonight.

This loop that the models are predicting 4-5 days out has my eyebrow raised. Is there any chance this hits Florida a 2nd time and plows on through into the gulf?

I mean, what the heck is up with this model track? Miami is in for double trouble

Not I. I was born in the Houston area and my choice of profession (chemistry) makes it very difficult to move elsewhere. As I've gotten older I've found that I have way less tolerance for the heat we get here for 6 months of the year and the hellish temps of summer. Im lucky to get pleasant weather ...

I hope forecasters are wrong about this winter. They are saying it is supposed to be very cold (up north) but that it is looking like most of it wont make it down this way. Not looking forward to another 85 degree soup bowl christmas again.

All the same, it at least puts it on my radar (pardon the pun) to keep an eye on the gulf next week just in case some mischief gets going.

To me it does not look like the trough will dig south and west enough in a short enough time to steer as strongly as the models are suggesting. Any chance that all of the models bust on this one and the storm goes much further west? Too tough to say yet?

Just wait until one of the "Doom & Gloom" models bullseyes Houston at the 5 day window. Its going to be a worrisome few days as we head into the weekend if this spins up into anything.

Just got an inch yesterday and another quarter inch today. Hope it picks up becuase this aint gonna cut it.

Are you getting some love, now?

Finally got about an inch. Ill take it but hoping to get 4-5 inches this week.

Well, radar is showing that all of this is going to slide East right past us again. Southern counties just arent getting any relief.

I would rather be in the risk area. Badly need the rain. Looks like we arent getting any over here in Rosharon again.

I just hope northern Brazoria county gets some much needed rain. We have had less than a quarter inch at my house since June.
