Incoming.

Couple shots I got with my phone and the cheap NASA filter glasses. https://i.ibb.co/9tLFY8r/20240408-134208.jpg https://i.ibb.co/KGzSGV0/20240408-134647.jpg We did miraculously get a break in the clouds in CLL before the line of storms that allowed us to see 90% totality. Just a thin crescent. Wel...

Welp. The sun is out here in CLL. A reverse Lucy?

I see some breaks in the clouds. We could have gotten lucky N of SA?

NWS has an 80% chance of rain here tomorrow - they've been steadily going up. Just watched KPRC-2 and they only have a 30%. The TV models don't show much until Tuesday - all north of here tomorrow. Interesting... The low clouds rolled in about 7 pm tonight heading NW to shroud the eclipse path. Thi...

I am not liking Monday's weather. Tomorrow doesn’t really look like much of anything. Tuesday should be the day, particularly Tuesday evening into early Wednesday. Clouds have Eclipsed the viewing party. Today or yesterday or the day before or the day before would have been good. https://m1o.pivota...

The only real chance for eclipse viewing from Waco south is a line of storms that temporarily cleans up the mess.

The bust/reverse bust for Eclipse watching. From the SA/Austin NWS LONG TERM... (Sunday night through Friday) Issued at 233 AM CDT Sat Apr 6 2024 Winds will have shifted back to SE across all areas by 00Z Sunday and the moisture pooling from the washed out front over the Coastal Prairies will push a...

88°F high here, 86°F at the airport. But at least it was dry.

115 days - named stored days. That's 3.5+ months of nearly continuous action. Crazy. The GoM could be wide open for business.

23 named storms, 11 hurricanes and 5 major hurricanes.

Unfortunately, I booked a room north of San Antonio. I experienced an eclipse in Greenville, NC back in the day. I had a 3 inch refractor telescope and my Dad and I set up a straight optical line (we removed the eyepiece) leading into a box to view the image. We set up on a staging area on campus u...

I swear if rain ruins the eclipse im done, mother nature can be a true jerk sometimes, but im going to remain optimistic that we stay dry, fingers crossed models speed up the timing of the system to before the eclipse Not looking good. Tuesday through Saturday look ideal, then FAIL. https://www.tro...

Potentially clouds and rain could interfere with viewing the April 8 eclipse...but the rain will likely be light.

So, my long term progs are

1. Another dry Spring

2. Mega tropical season and potential landfall in the western Gulf (TX, LA) of multiple major hurricanes.

I love the changes! 😄 FYI It's far out but I'm watching the 2nd week of April for the possibility of a significant cutoff low in the southwest/southern plains.Combined with an active subtropical jet, such a setup could lead to a multi day severe weather & heavy rain threat in the plains.Still f...

Fresh. Clean. It must be opening day for MLB! Even the Cubs can't blow it today...at least until 6:35 pm tonight when they play the World Champion Texas Rangers.

66°F, Northerly breeze, DP = 41°F, brilliant sunshine. The leaves on trees and grass are emerald green.

A Chamber of Commerce Day if there ever was one.

Nice mild weather through Friday, but a pretty warm weekend could be on tap.

0.63 inches this morning, and 2.77in for the month. Not bad since we started out the month fairly dry. Once the sad line departed this morning, we've had a nice day. Nearly Chamber of Commerce type weather.
