.AVIATION [18Z TAF Issuance]...

TSRA will continue to move westward across most of the terminals
this afternoon. Expect wind gusts up to 25 knots with any
thunderstorms. Storms will gradually taper off/weaken from east to
west by late this afternoon/early evening. Another round of
showers and thunderstorms is expected overnight into Saturday
morning, with the best chances along the coastal terminals and
KSGR, KHOU. Potential for scattered storms are again expected
Saturday afternoon; therefore, have included VCTS at KIAH. Some
MVFR conditions are expected with any storms this afternoon and
overnight into mid-morning Saturday. Otherwise, VFR conditions
are expected through the period.

12z Euro is showing a cutoff low developing over the South towards the end of the run. If this develops, we may have to watch for potential southern shifts in the track. It could be potential tropical trouble if it gets over the Gulf. The low is trapped underneath the ridge so it is moving west towards Texas by day 10.

Flash Flood Warning just issued Jefferson/Orange County. Storms headed west.

Been raining since noon in Beaumont. Another round headed our way from orange. Another 3-4” possible over the few hours.

Stay weather aware if driving 1-10 east towards Beaumont/Lake Charles.

Yeah but you have to remember that setups like this are notorious for flood events. While we do need rain, we don't need a flood. That's trading one problem for another.

captainbarbossa19 oh no you’re absolutely apot on, im just sayinf a cut off low would be the perfect setup for some widespread rain, even inland unlike today haha, but like you said with that ridge building in things could get interesting if it gets out over water, lots of available heat energy to tap into

Yep the same places get inches and inches of rain and some of us can’t even be spared something to wet the grass.

If the cutoff low forms, that will not be a problem anymore. This current pattern for August is starting off far different compared to 2011. Early August then was very dry for all of SE Texas. Bush recorded only 0.09 inches for the whole month. We were dreaming of even a chance of rain. This weekend and next week look fairly decent for rain chances and I also think we have likely already had our hottest weather this summer assuming a major hurricane doesn't move inland to our east.
