Alright, time to get more serious. The drama was fun while it lasted, at least for me - haha.

98L will come-in just south of Corpus. It remains to be seen how far north/inland the rain shield and attendant feeder bands will push on Sat and Sun.

Herzog has 40% chances of rain for Houston tomorrow and 60% on Sunday.
NWS has 70% chances of rain for Houston tomorrow and 40% on Sunday.

I understand that. It’s just extremely odd not for a system to have substantial convection on the north and east side. The only way for that not to happen would be from shear. Southern sides of storms are typically void of convection.

It’s possible but unlikely.

Cpv17 might be a little bit of shear, but we will see if this system can start to get some convection going on its Northeast side overnight, otherwise i dont expect much from 98L, 18z GEFS has a little bit of a signal for potentially another gulf system next week, but thats just speculation for now

The 18z GFS is the best overall run of any model I have seen in ages. It literally has substantial rains for the entire state.

College Station won’t see anything from it but I think my area has a chance to see something. Like I said this morning, south of I-10 has better chances.

Things I no longer trust.

1. Long range forecasts (for obvious reasons).
2. Daily forecasts.
3. The radar.

I'm getting a weather rock. I have seen too many times that my area does whatever the hell it wants to. We didn't even get a sprinkle today besides a tiny bit overnight last night.
