Re: May 2024
The radar seems to be off by quite a bit. I know there's a delay but its pouring now in Katy at I10 and Mason and the line is still barely at FM 529 on the radar. Same thing when this rolled into Cypress and my rain gauge was showing 2" rainfall rates and it was still showing it was a ways off.

Re: April 2024
We ended up at .19 for the entire Sunday/Monday event in Fairfield. Looking at the radar loop we got really close to a good soaking at 2:30 but it just missed us. In all the bad news with tornadoes and flooding, there was some good news. We were in New Braunfels for the weekend and Sunday morning th...

Re: March 2024
Ooof a total of 0.58 here in my rain gauge in Cypress. Other than Friday we just kept ending up on the edge or storms developed after they passed us. Better than nothing.

Re: March 2024
The front just blew through and redefined broken line of showers. For a moment it looked dark and like it was going to pour buckets. Now, Lucy has pulled out the football again. https://radar.weather.gov/ridge/standard/KGRK_loop.gif You sure that was the front? I don't think its pushing through til...

Re: March 2024
I managed to get a surprise .24” yesterday evening all in about 5 minutes. NWS raised Friday’s rain chances to 70%. Hopefully not another Lucy. At least after the next front it will be back to normal for awhile. Looks like a pleasant way to start spring break. I'm already seeing the cap mentioned i...

Re: March 2024
March has always been one of our drier months. An average or equal +/- precipitation outlook for the month doesn't mean much for summer.Stratton20 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 12:56 pm Not really, you dont want to see that brown showing up going into the summer ahead

Re: January 2024
Lotsa sleet with some flakes mixed in in Fairfield as well as Katy. We had a very heavy 5 minute band of sleet come through Katy about 20 minutes ago. My Ambient weather station got up to 25 earlier around 8am and has dropped back to 24 or so. I don't think its gonna get to the predicted 34 unless t...

Re: January 2024
Got a whopping 0.30” yesterday…. Those storms were just moving too quick over my area to drop much. We got .36 from the streamers and front and then another .14 in the evening when the post front rain moved in. Heard some thunder and got a bit of what i think was graupel but didn't do much other th...

Re: January 2024
we arent getting a glancing blow, its coming straight down into the plains and into texas, Cosgrove has mentioned that the ICON and CMC have the best handle on how this is likely going to play out , ABC13 has highs in the upper 40’s which is far too conservative , the blocking pattern is pretty muc...

Re: January 2024
To be fair to Travis and ABC13, this isn't the "Polar Vortex" and that's what he was mostly responding to last week. As far as glancing blow, we are still a week out and if i had to wager money... We live in Houston and its always a safer bet on it being warmer than models show a week out...

Re: January 2024
Quite the opposite lol, with arctic airmasses, the models are almost always too warm, globals were 5-10 degrees too warm with the February 2021 outbreak, id bank on a couple days below freezing in in se texas This far out, we don't know the true depth of the snowpack to the north prior to the front...

Re: January 2024
Only had .50” here. Once again, underperforming and less rain than expected, at least here. I know some places got decent rains but that dry slot killed it for a lot of us. Back to work today, so I’m officially done with cold weather for the season. Bring on spring. You need to have cold air build ...

Re: December 2023
So much for all that "coldest winter ever" nonsense that everyone was talking about late summer and fall. More like warmest, most boring winter ever. Beautiful fall weather all week and then a rainy, sloppy mess all holiday weekend naturally. Was that ever predicted? I only ever saw wette...

Re: December 2023
What happened to the crazy winds? They were a little brisk earlier at 5-10 but I thought there were going to be 30-50 mph winds after the front blew through?
