Meteor over Austin, now one over Clear Lake?

Given the normal ambient light in th...

Re: October 2015 - Dry Early Week/Wet/Stormy Halloween
OK, it's 10:30pm and the rain is finally down to a very light mist here, so I'm gonna call my total for today at 3 and 3/8 inches. Along with yesterday's 3 inches even, that puts the entire event here as 6 and 3/8 inches.

Re: October 2015 - Heavy Rainfall/Coastal Low/Flash Flood Li
So, the total rainfall in my backyard for Oct 24 was only 3 inches at midnight. Since then, as of 8 AM Oct 25, I've recorded another 2 and 3/8 inches. It's definitely slowed down, but today, all of it is running off where only an inch of yesterdays rain here ran off.

Re: October 2015 - Heavy Rainfall/Coastal Low/Flash Flood Li
My backyard rain gauge was emptied this morning before the rain started. It's now showing exactly 2 inches as of 8 PM CDT. It's just been a steady rain most of the day, very light at first and gradually getting heavier here near Clear Brook High School.

Wind vector graphics on KHOU
When watching KHOU weather forecast graphics showing the passage of a front, I can't help noticing something odd in the wind speed/direction vectors plotted on the graphics. It was present in the first graphic on tonight's 10:18 weather segment as well (Dec 30, 2010). There's this one odd wind vecto...

Re: So what's the weather like where you are??
What's the weather like here in Friendswood? Well, that's hard to say. It's been raining like mad all day, and given that there are four major creeks --- Chigger Creek, Coward's Creek, Mary's Creek and Clear Creek --- that run through Friendswood, we usually have a couple of them flood. But when I w...
