strange winds, goes from nothing to wondering if my neighbor's trees will go over - several neighbors have had to chase stuff around their yard already - yet still no rain :cry:

Yep - in the east part of College Station.

We experienced that sustained gust. It was pretty impressive from the ENE - had to be 55 mph+ Had a touch of tornado like whistle sound, but they were straight line winds. Our trees aren't very mature, and thus pliable, so at most they lost a few leaves.

Heard the wind chimes clanging and went outside to gather up all the pool floaties and chairs before they blew off to Navasota. The wind was fierce. Could not move headed NE to barn for about 30-45 seconds. One of the floaties is GONE. Then had an alarm notification for a roof hatch at our buildings in CS so had to drive up here and, sure enough, the wind had popped it a tad loose but no major leakage. Lots of leaf debris on county roads, not much on 6.

Weather is just amazing and marvelous except when it brings destruction.

from WPC's latest Day 1 discussion:


...Southern Plains...

A compact area of strengthened WAA and deepening elevated instability early in the period across the southern Plains, bolstered by the MCV ejecting east of the High Plains, has fostered an initial round of convection early, as the decaying MCS will bring moderate areal-average rainfall totals to central and north-central TX later this morning. Following round 1, lingering MCV energy and outflow boundaries along with the stationary synoptic front will favor additional convective development this afternoon-evening -- especially toward the mid-upper TX coast where robust deep-layer instability (model mixed layer CAPES 2500-3500+ j/kg) will be present. The model spread however is quite high with respect to the convection evolution (and QPF) later this afternoon and evening, though the solutions do begin to align somewhat more favorably late Mon evening and overnight (especially after 06Z) as increasing low level southwesterly flow (30-40 kts at 850 mb) supports another compact MCS from south-central OK, across the Red River and into North TX and western portions of the ARKLATEX. PW values are progged to spike aoa 1.75" Monday night along the path of this MCS, with the models (especially high-res CAMs) likely simulating the mesoscale environment to some degree. In terms of the QPF, given the disparity among the operational model runs (global and high-res), WPC once again leaned toward the means, particularly the HREF and NBM high-res means. Individual CAMs such as the WRF-ARW, ARW2. NMMB, NSSL-WRF, and NAM CONUS-Nest all show spotty areas of 24 hour rainfall totals of 3-5+ inches, the bulk of which would arrive late Monday night via the next MCS. Despite the relatively high FFG initially, the prospects of at least some reduction from rains early Mon, along with the potential for fairly prodigious short-term rainfall rates Mon night-early Tue with the MCS, would continue to warrant a Marginal risk area in the new day 1 ERO (similar to the day 2 outlook from Sun).

Nary a drop over here by the bay, but the lightning rocked.
