Well I'm living thru all y'alls rain cuz we're still waiting here by the bay
... Funnel clouds possible this afternoon...
A very buoyant air mass coupled with intersecting boundaries will
create a favorable environment for funnel clouds this afternoon.
Conditions won't change much through Friday so funnel clouds will
also be possible on Wednesday... Thursday and Friday. Funnel clouds
do occasionally stretch to the ground and become short lived
tornadoes. Persons who observe a funnel cloud should seek shelter
as a precaution.

Afternoon Update from Jeff:
Prolonged period of wet weather for the next several days.
Region has come under the influence of a break between the sub-tropical ridge to the west and to the east known as a “upper level weakness or shear axis” In addition to the upper level weakness, deep tropical moisture over the western Caribbean Sea and southern Gulf of Mexico is moving into the TX coast with the air mass significantly moist and “tropical” over the region. Satellite derived moisture values over the Bay of Campeche suggest even greater moisture will be headed for the area late tonight-Thursday night. With a saturated air mass and no capping in the mid levels only modest heating (low to mid 80’s) is needed to result in thunderstorm development and this was clearly noted with the widespread development today.
Other factors which will become increasingly important over the next 48 hours include any slow moving low level outflow boundaries and convectively induced meso vort centers or small areas of low pressure that are formed from large thunderstorm complexes. Given such a moist air mass these “meso vorts” can begin to acquire tropical characteristics and behave very much like a decaying tropical storm with excessive rainfall focused near their centers of circulation during the overnight hours (nocturnal core rainfall). One such vort center is clearly noted by both radar and visible satellite images over SW TX (near Sonora, TX) currently as a result of this morning’s large thunderstorm complex. This feature is drifting eastward and may move into SE TX on Wednesday if it is able to maintain its identity. Latest run of the TX TECH WRF model does suggest some sort of low to mid level circulation over/near SE TX Wed into Thurs helping to enhance and organize thunderstorms, but it is hard to tell if the modeled feature is the current system over SW TX or another feature that develops from an outbreak of thunderstorms Wednesday afafternoon
Thus far storms have been short lived and moving enough to keep excessive rainfall rates confined to a short period of time. 15-min rates this afternoon over SE/E Harris County were pushing 1.0-1.5 inches. This air mass is very capable of 1-3 inch per hour rainfall rates if not greater. Main concern over the next 48-72 hours will be if storms become organized or train along nearly stationary lines which in this type of environment can result in significant rainfall accumulations in a short period of time. Feel HPC rainfall (QPF) is just too low given what has happened over the past 24 hours and the air mass in place and forecast to be in place which does not give much support for rainfall amounts of the next 48-72 hours. Think a solid 1-3 inches is fairly likely with isolated amounts of 4-6 inches possible. These types of patterns can produce some really big rainfall totals in isolated areas…but it is impossible to predict where that may occur until it is underway. Meso scale influences such as low level boundaries and meso “lows” will play a big role in the heavy rainfall production over the next several days.
Main threat will be street flooding with high hourly rainfall rates and overtime as grounds saturated more run-off will be generated into area bayous and creeks with rises.

Very deep tropical moisture this morning and radar is already lighting up at this early hour. It's gonna be a wet day. Gonna have to keep a close eye on flooding potential today across all of SE Texas.

Heavy rain, lightning, and thunder in League City currently. A wet day expected across SE TX as very deep tropical moisture continues to moves inland. The deep tropical moisture in combination with low level convergence along the coastal areas will lead to some very heavy tropical rains that will spread inland this afternoon. Heavy rains already occurring in Brazoria and Galveston Counties this morning.

Morning Update from Jeff. It is some what worrisome to see the very heavy storms across the Western Gulf that maintained overnight. That trend will need to be watched today for some sort of weak disturbance as the NCEP TC genesis probabilities were sniffing last weekend.
Jeff's Update:
Excessive rainfall possible over the next 48 hours.
A lot of activity already ongoing this morning suggesting this tropical air mass needs little recovery time between rounds of heavy rainfall. Band of strong thunderstorms producing rainfall rates of .50 to .75 of an inch in 15-min is moving northward over central and eastern Harris County extending eastward along I-10 to Beaumont. Short fused street flooding is likely under this band of excessive rainfall.
Upstream air mass over the Gulf of Mexico is extremely moist with PWS ranging from 2.0-2.2 inches or very close to +2 SD above normal for late June on the Corpus Christi sounding. Such a tropical air mass will require little to no heating to produce rounds of heavy to excessive rainfall as clearly seen this morning. Suspect a short break over the next few hours after the passage of this line of weather followed by rapid redevelopment along the coast by late morning spreading inland once again this afternoon.
Short term models in a little better agreement that another break will occur this evening prior to the development of widespread and potentially significant rainfall on Thursday morning. Models are attempting to peg the area from Matagorda Bay to Houston to Liberty for deep convective development overnight and into Thursday morning as the central TX trough axis drifts eastward helping to focus lift over SE TX late tonight. Additionally, speed convergence near the coast/just inland will also result in lift as strong offshore winds weaken near the coast. Will have to keep a very close eye on short term guidance today to see if they continue this trend of a slow moving swath of heavy to excessive rainfall tonight which would likely lead to flooding.
Tropical air mass is firmly in place over the area with upstream satellite derived PWS over the southern Gulf pushing 2.4 inches, so the supply of moisture moving northward into the area will continue and with the weakness in the upper ridge over the area see no reason why it is not going to rain. Using PWS forecasting technique for slow moving or stalled convection suggest rainfall amounts could be on the order of several inches in a few hours. Thus far storms have shown good gust potential keeping them moving along their forward outflow boundaries, but any slowing of storm motions or cell training is going to get local areas into problems quickly. This air mass is very much capable of 2-4 inches of rainfall in an hour under heavy convection. HPC guidance is finally starting to look more realistic to the situation and shows widespread areal rainfall amounts of 1.0-3.0 inches through Friday and this still may be on the lower side especially if any sustained banding or training establishes itself. Could see isolated totals upwards of 8 inches or greater on top of what has already fallen. Yesterday alone nearly 4.0 inches fell on the NW side of Matagorda Bay and 2.0-3.0 inches over SE Harris County.
1-hr flash flood guidance is on the order of 2.0-3.0 inches over much of the region with 6-hr guidance in the 4.0-5.0 inch range. This air mass will be capable of exceeding these values over the next 48 hours generating significant run-off and rises on area stream, creeks, bayous, and rivers. Urban flooding is also likely given the high rainfall rates which will easily overwhelm local drainage systems.

The Austin metro area finally got in on the "fun" this morning with a tropical shower/storm that absolutely dumped on much of south and central Austin. I know because I drove through it! Hoping for more ...

NWS WEATHER PREDICTION CENTER COLLEGE PARK MD
1204 PM EDT WED JUN 25 2014
AREAS AFFECTED...MIDDLE TX COAST
CONCERNING...HEAVY RAINFALL...FLASH FLOODING POSSIBLE
VALID 251603Z - 252203Z
SUMMARY...A GROWING MASS OF CONVECTION IS BUILDING WHILE SLOWLY
MOVING ASHORE THE MIDDLE TX COAST. DESPITE THE HIGH FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE VALUES, A FEW SPOTS OF FLASH FLOODING ARE POSSIBLE IN
THIS AREA.
DISCUSSION...AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM MORNING CONVECTION IS MOVING
DOWN THE TX COAST AT THE PRESENT TIME. NEAR AND AHEAD OF IT, A
COUPLE THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES WITH COOLING TOPS ARE DEVELOPING
OVER THE NORTHWEST GULF OF MEXICO, WITH THUNDERSTORMS STARTING TO
ROLL INLAND. THE 0-6 KM SHEAR IS NEAR 25 KTS PER THE 14Z RAP,
INDICATING THAT ORGANIZED CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE IN THIS REGION.
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF 2-2.25" ARE MOVING INTO THE REGION,
WHICH ARE ABOVE THE 90TH PERCENTILE FOR LATE JUNE. CAPES OF
2000-3000 J/KG ARE DRIVING THE ACTIVITY. THE WET BULB ZERO HEIGHT
IN THE 12Z CORPUS CHRISTI AND LAKE CHARLES SOUNDINGS WAS ~14,500
FEET -- HIGH ENOUGH THAT WARM RAIN PROCESSES COULD BE AT PLAY
WHICH COULD LEAD TO RAINFALL AMOUNTS EXCEEDING RADAR ESTIMATES.
THE EXPECTATION IS THAT THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM SOUTHEAST TX
WILL DRIFT SOMEWHAT FURTHER DOWN THE COAST, AND THAT THE ACTIVITY
FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO MOVING INLAND WILL SET UP A COASTAL
CONVERGENCE ZONE DUE TO THE RAIN-COOLED AIR SETTING UP INLAND AND
THE CAPES BECOMING EXHAUSTED ASHORE. CORFIDI VECTORS ALMOST
DIRECTLY OPPOSE CELL MOTION AND THE WEAK LOW-LEVEL INFLOW, WHICH
COULD LEAD TO SLOW THUNDERSTORM MOVEMENT. RAINFALL RATES UP TO 3"
AN HOUR ARE POSSIBLE HERE IN STRONGER/MORE EFFICIENT STORMS.
SEVERAL PIECES OF MESOSCALE GUIDANCE -- THE LAST COUPLE HRRR RUNS,
THE 06Z CANADIAN REGIONAL, THE 12Z PARALLEL NAM CONEST, AND A
SIGNAL WITHIN THE 00Z SPC WRF INDICATE THAT LOCAL AMOUNTS OF 6-8"
ARE POSSIBLE HERE. DESPITE THE HIGH FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE VALUES,
A FEW SPOTS COULD RECEIVE FLASH FLOODING WITHIN THE DEFINED AREA.

now correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like most of the rain is heading for western Louisiana. It looks like we may just get the edge of it in southeast Texas
