We'll be getting our first Fall front here in the Smokies tomorrow evening into Wednesday morning. You folks should feel a bit of cooler weather late this week. Leaves have began to fall and some color is showing up with the Maples and Dogwood trees. The days are getting shorter and we will see our ...

Seems to be working now.

Changes are brewing. It's that time of year when we await that first true Fall front reminding us that the grip of summer is easing and the promise of cool temperatures and pleasant "tail gating" returns.

Gig'm Aggies!

Tropics remain unsettled...

Best pitching challenge I've seen anywhere in a long time. What a great game!

How 'bout' those Needville Little Leaguers. They've got a bunch of non Texans excited up here in the Smokies!

Be careful of Central America gyeres. They'll give you heartburn if you're counting on them to deliver.

Yes. Wonder when that will happen.

My hunch is Friday or Saturday an INVEST will be designated...

Latest update from the NHC...

Unusual pattern on the models with an east coast trough in late August. Looks more like late September or October. We've had a persistent trough overhead all summer here in WNC. Other than a few brief episodes where the upper ridge attempted to anchor, the main theme has been troughiness along the ...

Welcome to the 'Real' season. For the next 45 to 60 days all eyes should closely monitor the Tropics!

Pro Tip. Anything from weather.com will be highly left wing political and frankly can no longer be trusted. It takes careful analysis of any source these days and many can be led astray if you are not careful.

I know you SE Texas folk are looking for some relief from the heat anywhere you can. The upper air pattern looks to shift enough W to bring rain chances to the Region beginning Saturday night into next Monday. We've had storms all day here in the Smoky Mountains with temperatures in the low to mid 6...

Johnson Key is actually in Florida Bay N and E of Key West. Florida Bay in that area is typically only 3 to 4 feet deep.

I'll be flying in to Hobby next Friday morning for the weekend. Can you guys order some "cooler" weather for myself and my Brother and his family flying in from Indianapolis for next weekend. We are flying in for a Celebration of Life for our Mom that passed away in early April.

Back in town until early Friday morning. Looking wet starting tomorrow into Saturday. Typical situation around these parts as a cold front stalls offshore and then a surface trough develops with embedded upper air disturbances ride across our Region. Almost time to monitor the short range meso guida...
