Some relief from the heat may be instore in a couple of days as a potent disturbance moves in from the NW flow aloft. (There could be a damaging wind threat also...something to watch.)

One week later and there are still some impassible spots in the neighborhood.

Some alarming data... Ccdapture.PNG ABC13-Travis Herzog By the way, it was former National Hurricane Center Director Bill Read who first tipped me off to this astonishing correlation. There is a way to extend this data earlier than 1950 (although the data is not as sound), but the general correlatio...

Still a ways out so things can change,but the stormy pattern looks to return locally in SE Texas sometime next week.

Yikes...

If anyone wants to see just how bad the winds were the other day watch this video of downtown near the Wells Fargo bank...

Models are hinting at another frontal boundary moving down here in about 8-10 days, looks like after a brief break, the active pattern is going to be coming back soon Yep, im a little concerned that we haven't seen the last wind damage event this season in SE Texas.And there could be more to come i...

Looks like there was another derecho event today, this time in Kansas.

Well that was a wild ride here in timbergrove, glad to finally getting power back but understandable that it’s been taking them so long. I love a good strong (but well behaved) thunderstorm, but man that got dicey in a hurry. Sounded like a freight train for a good 10 minutes. Here’s to hoping that...

I like Matt Lanza but i do think Space City Weather is sometimes too conservative for their on good.

As far as rainfall depiction, i wouldn't trust the models in this range,as they have had a habit this season of overdoing the intensity of the Mexican ridge.(Especially the GFS) i feel chances are that several of the disturbances(storm complexes to be specific) that the models show moving in from th...

I finally just got my power back. I love my tropical cyclones but please nothing more than a strong tropical storm or category one this year. I don’t want to go through this again anytime soon. Sorry if you mentioned this already, but did your property receive any damage? No thank goodness outside ...

For me it was the 1997 ice storm and Tropical storm Frances.We woke up to water entering our house the morning after Frances made landfall. We had to be rescued,being a kid at the time I thought it was fun lol.

I honestly think the damage locally was worse than from Ike.Trees and power lines/poles are down everywhere and massive trees have went through several roofs in the Heights area.Many of these trees survived Ike but did not survive this storm. I still have more pictures believe it or not. There is l...
