Re: May 2024

We're having a classic Tornado Season this year. With the majority of severe weather happening in the southern and central plains instead of Dixie Alley.

The sun peaking out is just adding fuel to the fire for the storms to the west/southwest.

Re: May 2024

0z HRRR has a bullseye of 10+ inches in Harris county fwiw. I'm not concerned about it yet but I'll be watching to see if future runs continue to show it.

Re: May 2024

It’s, in large part, the latitude of the Houston metro area. While only a few degrees difference, the lower latitude often precludes some low pressure systems from the Midwest from reaching as far south as especially the coastal areas. There is a marked difference in relative humidity % between Hou...

Re: May 2024

I just assumed that the Beaumont area and the Houston area received about the same amounts, sometimes one more than the other. That is true also,sometimes Houston sees a big flood and nothing happens in the Golden Triangle an...

Re: May 2024

It does rain here a lot, but I thought the Houston area got just as much, or at least similar. Houston gets a lot of rain but Beaumont gets more.Though both the Houston metro area and the golden triangle are some of the wettest areas of the country overall.As most parts of the country get less than...

We'll continue to see a ramping up of extremes in Texas over the coming years. Longer periods of drought in the summer and more flooding rains. Stratton - you must be thi...

Re: May 2024

Yep models always struggle here when you're dealing with numerous disturbances moving in along the subtropical jet into the state.Kudos to the EURO for showing heavy rainfall amounts over SE Texas several days ago.While the GFS was much drier here.
