Keep an eye on the outflow boundary off to the northwest. This was kicked out from the thunderstorms over Oklahoma last night. May increase coverage later this afternoon. Especially to the north and west of the region.

Visible is also pretty interesting this morning. Not only do you have the outflow boundary shooting south across Central Texas, you have gravity wave behind it near San Angelo that has pretty much undercut any thunderstorms trying to form. Closer to home and across South Central Texas you have a CU-field going up. That will be key to watch if paired with the outflow boundary and daytime heating it can break the weak mid-level cap we have going on. Finally, near Waco you can see thunderstorm the outflow boundary sparked which is now weakening.

I'm hearing some rumbling thunder to the Northwest of us. Maybe we will get one of those showers.

Storms all around with a good bit of thunder, just teasing me so far.

I keep threading the needle of nothingness. Two rounds to the left, the next to the right...

Did really well today with just over an inch of rain. All the ditches are completely full.

Interesting obs: here in SW Washington County, we're on the moisture gradient mentioned in this morning's disco and as seen on the GOES 16 WV loop. Given that, the clouds sure are building nicely (better than yesterday)for it being only 10 am. Hope it brings rain.

Fairly cool this afternoon. Only 91 at both Bush & Hobby. That's a degree or two below normal for this date. Might need a jacket this evening. ;-)

Not much to say about the weather today. Mostly sunny with an isolated shower or thunderstorms today along the Upper TX Coast.

Just something to watch for now, but the 0z Euro tries to develop a depression that makes landfall on the 4th of July fwiw.

If there is any good news regarding the weekend, GOES E shows the upper trough digging into the Eastern Gulf is shoving that Saharan Dust plume a bit to our SW perhaps sparing us from the worst of that dust plume. Allergies have been tough for many this year.
