Almost forgot…..
I took this video of these severe storms from 38,000 feet on my flight out of Hobby late May 9 evening. The video is not sped up. That lightning was real-time. Beautiful/eery sight.

Re: 2024 Hurricane Season Discussion
From Travis Herzog of ABC 13 in Houston... By now you've probably seen the hurricane outlook NOAA released today calling for a very active season, but you may have never seen the eye-opening maps I'm posting for you here. One of the main drivers of the anticipated active hurricane season ahead is th...

Rather than using a 30-year normal to compute anomalies, this method more clearly reveals areas that are unusually warm or coo...

Re: May 2024
I really dont see any sort of big heat ridge setup in the guidance anytime soon or even perhaps for the next few weeks, GFS continues to see a couple of cold fronts sliding through over the next few weeks! We shall see I'll believe it when I see it. I feel like we are charging forward to another sc...

Re: May 2024
Reed Timmer just filmed the wildest tornado I have ever seen in my life. https://youtu.be/R_ZDVYzIhgc?si=vSH5CzhhwanB6nEF I watched it live. It destroyed several wind turbines and started a huge fire from one. It had at least 3 distinct vortices with it I got several screenshots of it. Insane.

My money is on the first tropical landfall for SE TX in mid-June. Yes, I said "first."

What started your interest in weather?
Was it a singular event? A collection of weather events? Always love to hear other stories. Mine was a singular event - Hurricane Danny (especially the eye) in 1985 as a 5yr old in South Louisiana. I vividly remember playing with a Smurfs Colorform sticker set my mother had gotten for me to pass the...

Re: May 2024
Insane how strong these storms were.
This was our appetizer for hurricane season’s main course. Stay vigilant.

Re: May 2024
This is the way I see this Summer playing out...... Most (rightfully so North of Houston) are complaining about the rain. Don't blame them for a second. Many (south of Houston) are meh....could've used more rain, but at least it wasn't zilch. We are all complaining about the mosquitoes right now, a...

Re: May 2024
Yes, I anticipate to GoM being open for business this summer. A double-edged sword for sure. Unfortunately, I will put great money on the notion that the Upper TX coast will get walloped this season. I live here (Galveston County), so I’m not thrilled about thinking it or saying it, but I have a re...

Re: May 2024
The 12z GFS even through the end of its run continues to advertise another long duration of wet weather, im also hearing that the death ridge may set up shop more over the SW US and not directly over us for the summer, that may provide us with opportunities for most rain and a steady moisture feed ...

Re: 2024 Hurricane Season Discussion
The latest Euro forecast is predicting 250 ACE points. Sheesh.. Yeah at this point it’s becoming increasingly difficult to find some blaring failure modes for this upcoming hurricane season. But of course, like I mentioned on Storm2K at the beginning of the year, there will be patterns and unforese...

Those storms brewing between Pearsall and Laredo look some kind of nasty.

Re: May 2024
We were going to do an autocross event today up near IAH. When I got up to check the Radarange, it was a big ol' 'Nope!' for us. They postponed the start of the event an hour, then cancelled for safety. We put the race car up, and it was starting to sprinkle on us. Came back in and checked the rada...
