I agree. Look at this 3:51 PM Houston WX disco:
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE AREA SLIDING EAST WHICH HAS GIVEN THE AREA
A NICE COOL AND DRY AFTERNOON. (bueno!) THE HIGH CONTINUES EAST ON FRIDAY
AND AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE OVER THE FOUR CORNERS AREA THIS
AFTERNOON SWINGS EAST ALONG THE RED RIVER. THIS SHOULD PUSH A
PACIFIC FRONT INTO THE HILL COUNTRY WITH MOST IF NOT ALL OF SE TX
CAPPED. PERHAPS THE FAR NORTHEAST AREAS MAY GET SOMETHING OTHER
THAN SPITS OR SPRINKLES ON FRIDAY BUT LIGHT NONETHELESS WITH THE
WARMING TREND CONTINUING. SEA FOG THREAT RETURNING LATE FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY. SATURDAY SHOULD BE VERY WARM WITH STRONG INVERSION
ALOFT AND SHALLOW LAYER BELOW THAT SHOULD WARM INTO THE MID TO
UPPER 70S FOR MOST AREAS. NEXT TROUGH IN THE SEQUENCE DEEPENING AS
IT MOVES INTO CA AND THEN TOWARD THE 4 CORNERS AREA SUNDAY
MORNING...IT BEGINS TO SHEAR SLOWLY BUT IMPRESSIVE MOISTURE IS
FORECAST TO SURGE BACK INTO THE AREA SUNDAY AND FUEL THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
GFS/ECMWF AND EVEN THE
NAM ALL ARE HIGHLIGHTING AN AREA OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
LATE SUNDAY OVER THE NORTHEASTERN AREAS (MADISONVILLE TO CONROE TO
LIBERTY) FOR TORNADOES OR STRAIGHT LINE DAMAGING WINDS WHERE
STORMS GET AWAY FROM THE NOSE OF THE CAP THAT WILL INTRUDE INTO
THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHWEST (STRONG CAP IN THE SW AREAS). (next model runs may tell a different story so STAY TUNED!) WILL CONTINUE TO SHOW 30-50 POPS FOR NOW BUT MAY NEED A NUDGE UP AS IT
GETS CLOSER. QPF OF 0.25 TO 0.50 IS LIKELY OVER MUCH OF THE CWA
(EXCEPT PERHAPS SW COUNTIES) AND WOULDN`T BE SHOCKED IF FAST
MOVING STORM DUMP 1-3 INCHES IN THE NE COUNTIES. BLAST OF CANADIAN
AIR SWEEPS THROUGH WITH THE STORMS AND THE AREA SHOULD DRY OUT
MONDAY AND POSSIBLY TUESDAY UNLESS NEXT S/W IS STRONG ENOUGH TO
BRING BACK SOME LIGHT RAIN TO THE SOUTHERN AREA WITH GOOD UPGLIDE.
Rain is your friend. Lightning is your enemy. Fear the lightning!
