They decluttered all of them to hide the false returns and ground clutter. It does hide faint boundaries though unfortunately.

Bush airport didn't reach 100 degrees today!

Not associated with our weather, southern California may get a tropical system before we do this season. They are under a tropical storm watch there!

The heat is made worse probably as a result of all of those tropical systems the model has going north along the east coast.

That dryline front feels just the tiniest bit better. 30's% humidity.

I sure hope so soon!!!

Seems like the models keep pushing back any changes further away in the long term. This ridge may be the longest duration of this season and will see what happens later in the month. Both major models precip maps show the usual Texas 'donut hole' continuing for awhile.

I read the -pdo is starting to warm up off the west coast which is a result of el nino onset and that fact plus the negative soi should hopefully cause a better pattern for Texas. The gfs long term has been better lately.

Mine does that of and on, especially if I am in the process of making a post.

I counted 3 little tiny seabreeze showers to the southwest of us with a couple more showers to the northeast. A slight positive before this high peaks in a few days around the state.

The soi has been negative for the longest time and it hasn't provided much of any relief. I believe the negative pdo has been the wrinch in our heat done weather of late.

They still shift and break down the ridge, but that probably phantom system on the gfs distorts the surface depiction of the model runs.

So far the gfs has been consistent in showing the ridge breaking after the 1st of July and today's run is even better and hope the trends continue

Worst windstorm I have seen since hurricane Ike for sure. No power 1960 45 area

Let's lock in that 18z run it is much more preferable!!!

A little more coverage out around the area than I expected today. The issue with any system if it forms and goes to the east is it makes the heat and dry air worse. Always happens. Keep it to the south and west and it would enhance seabreeze action.

I see signs of that new band already forming out into the gulf.

Yeah I see them currently going away, unless they backbuild further to the west southwest. There are little cells forming currently.

Yes it was definitely exciting tonight and there is hope for optimism for the future for sure!

Glad that phpBB server issue is resolved on here and S2k! There was no plan C for seeing posts since both sites were out.
