The storm moving out of northeastern Ft. Bend into Western Harris county is a very proficient rain and lightning maker. Have over 1 inch in the rain bucket and its only been raining for about 20min. Also, there are a ton of cloud to ground lightning strikes with the storm as well so be careful if yo...

I am not being wishful or wishcasting, I just think that we could go from a beautiful, mostly sunny day to all of a sudden, where did this Bow Echo thunderstorm or Supercell Thunderstorm come from. We have indeed had surprise local severe events in the past however, tomorrow does not look like that...

Dan and I were just discussing how there is better moisture the futher W one goes which matches the thouhts of the NWS of and E of I-35 corridor senario. Beginning to see some cumulus clouds structures to my N and W. Yeah, I was just looking over some surface charts and noticed the same thing and i...

What precisely/specifically is dBz? dbz is the amount of transmitted energy returned back to the radar with the values increasing along with the amount of reflectivity energy. For example, a thunderstorm containing hail will give much larger dbz (aka reflectivity) values than just a light shower be...

Latest visible sat really shows the explosive thunderstorm development over the past hour to the west of Mineral Wells along with additional cu development back building to the south. Morning low clouds have already burned off across our northern counties which will quickly allow temps to rise towar...

18z models are in and it is interesting to note that they show less moisture across the region Tuesday and more on Wednesday with a slightly better wind field and instability coming into play. SPC has out-looked the possibility of a severe threat Wednesday as seen in the extended discussion below. ....

Even though we will see the most widespread precip Monday, Tuesday afternoon and evening bears watching for the potential for some isolated strong storms. The atmosphere will remain rather moist and should be much more unstable as we fall into the right exit region of a very strong jet stream. Model...

Yeah, the system forecast by the models to be moving into the region by the middle of next week could possibly pack quite a punch for someone in the state. The upper level dynamics look impressive with a strong s/w cutting down into central Texas along with at least part (northern) of our region fal...

Now getting some light snow...really big flakes!

Getting sleet here on the far west side around the west oaks area.

Heavier showers and even some rumbles of thunder developing as the front starts to move into our southern zones where better moisture levels reside this evening. Like people have been mentioning, there is a decent temp drop behind the front along with some very gusty northwest winds. Hope you enjoye...

Getting sleet here on the far west side!

Just saw the winds shift here on the far west side, with a northwest wind blowing around 15mph with gusts around 22mph so far.

The TVS/Meso signatures on radar look to just be indicating some low level convergence along the leading wind shift line associated with the storms and would only be an indication of some gusty surface winds as the leading edge of the storm passes by...however a brief funnel is still possible, espec...

Area of some pea to possibly nickel sized hail getting ready to move across I-45 just south of Loop 336 and north of SH 242.

Was looking at some model soundings for Thursday's mess and it still looks like a cold rain for Houston with maybe a sleet pellet mixed in across our far northern counties. Like wxman was saying a few pages back, the heaviest rain and therefore best chances for any type of evap cooling to occur will...

Temps are warming up into the mid-upper 60s which should help add a little bit more instability especially as the storms move into our central and southern zones; however, we will have to watch for the front to possibly undercut the storms if it gets moving south quicker than the storms. Looks like ...

Hey everyone!
