Majority of wildfire activity has been in the vastness of the Big Country and up towards the Red River Valley. While it is beneficial, let's hope we have good sustained rainfall to keep the fire activity low or at least easily manageable.

Well back from 70 degree weather and into the heat ....
Dorian - what a beast - my prayers go out to all in Florida - the anxiety must be threw the roof
One of the most frightening aspects is the slow strom speed from Sunday night through Tuesday night.
The Euro run might spare Florida, but could damage areas of North Carolina from Wilmington through Cape Lookout that were absolutely wrecked by Florence.
Edit: Big red blowup *just* to my north...but arcing around me....I'm right on the edge...lots of thunder and an occasional drop of rain pings but it just won't break through!!!
Also a new cell literally just exploded out of nowhere the other side of 45 and is merging with this one. That's the wrong side though....I just stepped outside and looked east - the low cloud base stops directly overhead, nothing to the east -- I'm afraid this is yet another tease. And probably the worst one too.

So this has been going on for almost an hour now. Lots of thunder and the occasional ping of rain, but but it just won't rain.
STMS = Sick to my stomach
We were in the grocery store and there was a 15 min downpour. 2 miles back at the house - Nothing. By then I had already talked by self out of mowing and headed to the hardware store for some plumbing fittings.
Here comes the outflow / sea breeze from the SE. Had healthy convection with it earlier but as it crossed US 59, it just all falls apart. This rain free stretch is starting to remind me of 2011.

Thank you Mother Nature for the intense T’storm have been dumping on my house for the past 20 min and it’s still continuing!!!
Not a drop here even though I could hear the thunder and the skies looking like it should rain. Glad you got some.

2 days in a row. Rain shower within 1 mile of the house. Struck out again.
