I just think Tuesday through Thursday will be pretty hot. Rain chances should return after that.

It just blows me away that we're on the dirty side of a tropical disturbance just off our coast in mid August and we're barely even getting some cloud cover from it.

Too far away from it, and it's moving southwest.

Luckily got caught in one of the small rain bands. Maybe can rack up some today since I got nothing the last few days.

We’re not really too far away from it. Typically when a system goes towards CC, we get plenty of rain from it. It’s just this system (for whatever reason) has most of its convection on the south side.

Yep, exactly. After Thursday we could be done with the upper 90’s to low 100’s till next summer. Huge pattern change coming. So many Nancy’s on here lol but I don’t blame them. This summer has turned most of us all into Nancy’s and Karen’s :lol:

Cpv17 I could agree more! This pattern change is coming, below normal temps favored and above normal precip, man even the 12z runs of all the global models look great for precipitation over the next 10* days, cant wait for fall to be here

Summer in Houston sucks during the best years. 2022 was up there in the dreadful category.

Yep last straw for me. I'm a native Texan and love it, but this will be my last full summer here. I'll be bailing out next July to take my sweet cheesehead wife home and get away from the melting asphalt for a month or two. :x

PS my cheesehead in-laws are coming down here for a month or two in January. Goes both ways. ;)

Breaking News: A "band" is coming onshore. Let's see how far it can make it before dry air and subsidence can crush it.

I’d never want to live anywhere else besides Texas. I guess you could say I’m pretty closed minded. Summers here when we have at least average weather is tolerable for me.

Oh yeah, SCW is overrated. Not sure what everyone sees in them.

Cowboys are on now.

But, yes about 2 weeks and 5 days before the very first CFB

Beginning Thursday we have a paradigm change in the weather per models. We'll see. That FROPA has been sniffed out for nearly a week.

We're finally on the east side of the trough axis. We'll see what happens tomorrow but I was watching what was happening east of us on satellite loops all weekend and things didn't make it very far inland.

NWS cut my rain chances in half again today - down to 20%

It’s raining now with hopefully more showers streaming onshore.
