We have some thunder showers rumbling across Western Harris/Montgomery Counties. Maybe a little rain for my parched lawn.

Needless to say those thunderstorms have since very much decreased in intensity and some have even disintegrated altogether.
lol @ IAH
It is apparently 98 degrees at the most accurate climate site in the country while all other climate sites around the area are a good 4 to 5 degrees cooler... Yay for accurate statistics!

we got caught in that nasty little cell near conroe yesterday evening. almost had to pull over during the torrential downpour.
the weather in galveston was nice today, as could be expected. apart from the seaweed, the scene was near perfect: temps around 90F with the water temp nearing bathwater territory.

Morning email from Jeff
Upper air high sitting over TX this morning with activity ringing the ridge over W TX, the northern plains, and across the eastern Gulf states.
This ridge that provided the 99 yesterday afternoon at IAH will shift northward over the next 48 hours and flatten allowing a deeper easterly flow to develop through the air column. Activity over Louisiana will begin to spread closer to SE TX each afternoon while aloft subsidence weakens and moisture increases providing a better chance of LA convection making it into our area and storms possibly going up along the seabreeze. Models show a couple of vorts in the E/NE flow aloft that could/may enhance thunderstorms on Wednesday…so with hit this day with the highest rain chances of 30-40%.
Upper high remains just to the north and builds ESE this weekend allowing a continued moist flow into the region from the Gulf of Mexico. Daily seabreeze chances will be had each afternoon….which is good since IAH is now running over 7.0 inches below normal in the rainfall department for 2010.

In case any of you care, there is a rather impressive and healthy Bow Echo thunderstorm west-northwest of the city of Beaumont moving southwest.

No advisories from LCH concerning that storm at this time sleet. We do have some development along the seabreeze in NW Harris County. We need rain, but not all at once.
