^ I think the biggest threat now is going to be flash flooding. The rain came down hard. Major ponding and some street flooding here in CLL. Muchos lightning.

Like the last MCS storm on Wednesday night, it's hit the wall over TAMU for severe weather. The MCS may get a second wind closing in on the HOU area.

We've split another MCS apart! We may see a second wave soon.

I may take pictures of the lawn tomorrow. This time of year and early October before brown patch season have been about the only times it is really green. 2% Iron in Sta-Green fertilizer helps survive summer watering (alkaline water and soil).

I'm hoping it will move fast enough to get some lightning in the windows drama during the Astros game tonight.

Probably won't, given the faster games this year.

I'm thinking folks leaving the game might get caught in this unless it comes in fast.

The line here is weak sauce. All good. We don’t need any rain here.

Looks like the MCS will hold together to the coast.

Cows peeing on pavement here, but no hail and not much wind.

The back side ain't mailing it in, either. Light rain but a good bit of thunder and lightning.

Nice. Glad to see almost everyone getting some action.

Here's a photo from a CLL resident trying to making back from Bryan. Nice wall droppage. It looks like a few vortices are trying to form. This was about the time I was crossing Texas Ave and notice the massive inflow about 40 mph steady like moving through a river of moving air.

Picked up half an inch. No severe stuff here, just a nice steady rain.

Several days of decent weather before return to a pretty storm pattern late next week, GFS and CMC hint at a heavy rain event

This is wind is no joke: N 25 G35

The sun is out now - a VERY nice day! (I don't mind wind - I've grown to hate calm conditions)
