Just enough with the Sept sun to keep the sprinklers off for a couple of days.

After reading stories from the 1900 Galveston Hurricane this past weekend; the last thing I want to mention is the tropics this evening however its time again. The tropical disturbance over the SE Bahamas is now Invest 95L and projected to enter the SE GOM during the next 5 days. At this point only a 40% chance of development but its time for us be tropical weather aware through the weekend. Hopefully a non-event for anyone along the Gulf Coast and some well needed rain.

Not even a drop near Lake Conroe Dam the past few days. Watching the radar split around me is absolutely mind boggling.

The modeling for 95l has remained well e of us towards the ngom. However the nhc shows a bit more westward component with the overall movement more towards the central gulf as the ensembles seem slightly to the w of the operational runs.

The 00Z Euro and GFS ensembles do suggest a bit more Westerly track, but until if or when 95L organizes, all interests along the Gulf Coast likely should monitor the developments.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Wed Sep 11 2019

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. Widespread cloudiness and showers extending from the southeastern
Bahamas northward over the southwestern Atlantic for a few
hundred miles are associated with a surface trough of low pressure.
Limited development of this system is anticipated today or
tomorrow, however conditions are forecast to become a little more
favorable for development over the weekend, and a tropical tropical
depression could form as the disturbance moves slowly toward the
west-northwest across the Florida Straits or South Florida and over
the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Regardless of development, this
disturbance could produce periods of locally heavy rainfall and
gusty winds across the Bahamas through Thursday, and across Florida
during the weekend.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...60 percent.

A broad low pressure system, associated with a tropical wave, is
located about 650 miles east of the Lesser Antilles. This
disturbance is accompanied by a large but disorganized area of
cloudiness and thunderstorms. This system is forecast to move
westward toward unfavorable upper-level winds for tropical cyclone
formation.

2. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.

3. A tropical wave located between the west coast of Africa and the
Cabo Verde Islands is forecast to move quickly westward during the
next several days. Some slow development is possible over the
weekend or early next week when the system is moving over the
tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

After all the rumbling of thunder, gust winds and spits of rain off an on yesterday, one heavy shower managed to drop .43 inches in my backyard. Better luck today for those that have missed out!

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
550 AM CDT Wed Sep 11 2019

.SHORT TERM [Today through Thursday]...
Widespread activity over the Gulf will continue to move inland in
to the early morning hours. While we`re not too sure if we`ll see
that mid/late morning break (as it has been the last few days)...
we should see decent coverage across the area this afternoon. The
best POPs will likely be north of I-10 with brief heavy rains and
strong gusty winds as the primary threats. Like the previous days,
activity should wind down by the evening with the loss of heating.

As the upper ridge builds in from the east, slightly drier air and
increased subsidence aloft will help to lower rain chance on Thurs.
However, lingering moisture/wet grounds, light winds and the still
abundant daytime heating could make for elevated heat index values
across the western/southwestern portions of the FA Thurs afternoon
and early evening. At this time, progged values are just under our
heat advisory criteria...but anyone with outdoor activities should
keep up with the forecast. 41

&&

.LONG TERM [Thursday Night through Wednesday]...
While northern portions of the CWFA will likely remain hot and dry
to end the week and the start of the weekend, the southern half of
the region could still see some isolated activity during this same
time frame. A persistent onshore flow, daytime heating and the sea
breeze will help to keep low POPs in along the coast.

The main issue for the extended forecast looks to be Sun/Mon as we
monitor the arrival of deeper moisture and a possible tropical dis-
turbance. Model solutions have been fairly consistent with the dev-
elopment of this system into the NE Gulf over the weekend. However,
we are seeing a bit more discrepancies with its westward track over
the Northern Gulf. At any rate...did keep with the higher/CHC POPs
across our CWA for this time frame. 41

&&

.AVIATION...
Showers and thunderstorms bringing strong gusty winds to the coastal
waters will be spreading inland early this morning but then should
weaken over the water by mid morning. This will lead to gusty winds
possible even in the vicinity of storms near the coast.

Overall expecting something similar to yesterday with short lines of
bands of thunderstorms forming and spreading northward through the
area causing short periods of MVFR with the restricted visibility.
Will likely carry VCSH/VCTS between 14-20z for the HOU/IAH hubs with
tempo conditions intermixed then VCTS after 20z and have some
concerns that redevelopment is a little more likely again around 22-
00z.

Overnight should be mostly VFR with some patchy fog again and
lighter winds. 45

&&

.MARINE...

Strong gusty thunderstorms this morning forming a NW-SE band from
near Freeport to more than 70nm south of Galveston. Very cold cloud
tops on some of these. Winds of greater than 40 knots possible.

By mid morning expecting the coverage of storms to diminish but the
area will still be reloading for yet another round tonight/early
Thursday morning.

Winds should be generally southeasterly today in the 10-15 knot
range outside of the thunderstorm influences through Thursday. Winds
gradually backing Thursday night to the east with weak high pressure
over SETX Friday morning. Some models indicating winds may become
even northeasterly and strengthen with yet another round of early
morning storms.

Upper level pressures falling across the Gulf with the upper
troughing which in turn leading to the potential for more storms
Sunday or Monday depending on how the tropical disturbance (95L)
moving over FL plays out and the upper low. Stay tuned.
