September 2019 - Warm End of September

[srainhoutx]

Update from Jeff:

NWS has issued a flash flood warning for SE Harris County until 715pm.

Training band of very heavy rainfall with rates of 1-3 inches per hour is falling over areas that have already experienced 5-6 inches over the last 24 hours. Rapid onset street flooding and rises on local creeks and bayous is possible.

This band of heavy rainfall extends back to the west to near Bellaire and will track over the same areas for the next 1-2 hours.

Ive noticed that also on the HRRR... im getting concerned that there could be another training feeder band tonight/tomorrow but this time it could be located further inland than the one that setup along the coast last night.

[srainhoutx]

Watching closely new development in Waller County. I also see some potential development over Western Montgomery County as another band of showers pinwheel to the S.

[ccbluewater]

Storms have really taken off just to the South of me towards Katy. Looks like It may merge in with that nasty band Jeff is talking about.

[srainhoutx]

Jeff reports extensive street flooding in Westbury and Meyerland.

Nice tornado hit between Crosby and Mont Belvieu

Picked up 1”. I’m satisfied now.

There has been a long string of HRRR runs showing a line forming and back building in the central/nw part of the area overnight and in the morning. The mesoscale precip discussion mentions the black circled area above in unome post. That could be the deluge for the Harris county area for the night along with the current area now in the south part.

the tails of the center's circulation, like a whip from a Balrog (plz excuse my Tolkien geek reference)

Looks like Beaumont is about to get hammered AGAIN with a nasty training band. Part of that one extending to you guys in Houston. Have a feeling this may be “the one” that sets up over hou and Bmt overnight.

Beaumont Flooding Imelda

All i can say is ptsd harvey is real! The bottom just fell out here and its a nice big training band. Im talking heavy rain!!

[jasons2k]

Picked up 1”. I’m satisfied now.

Yes! Yes! I am so glad you got some much-needed rain!

I'm just catching-up again and noticed that WPC discussion. I'm inside that dreaded "black circle." Looking at the radar, seems like that band is slowly starting to set up. Concerning.

[Ptarmigan]

Things could get hairy tonight.

Things could get hairy tonight.

For those East of Houston, it certainly looks like it will be. So far for the ones in Ft Bend and westward it looks like it’s all but done. Barely got 1.5” which I’m grateful for, but would have like 4-5”!

Those on the east side and towards the golden triangle, stay safe tonight and tomorrow!

A HIGH risk is in effect in our Day 1 Excessive Rainfall Outlook. More details: http://go.usa.gov/cu3Dw

[djmike]

The two bands combined into one big training band over Beaumont and not moving. Just went outside to inspect and we are all flooded in our neighborhood. If large trucks drive, it will push water to peoples garages and porches. This is gonna be a long long long night...

[don]

Raining very heavy right now in the Heights.

[djmike]

Solid red extremely heavy rainband sitting over Beaumont. Not good. Since yesterday, 12” and counting fast... im actually nervous to go to bed. Work sent out another message tonight for all of is to stay home tomorrow as the road we use is now again flooded.
