MAY 2020

Looks like everyone will get in on the rain but south of I-10 will see the strongest storms. Luckily, the flooding risk (and severe risk north of I-10) should be pretty minimal.

Lightning has really decreased except along the coastline. Shows the line is weakening overall but still seeing some pretty strong rain rates across all of the line. Good thing this is moving fast enough otherwise a big flooding risk would be present. Still, an impressive line crossing most of SE Texas.

Crazy bow on this thing.

The low looks to be centered just over Bryan right now. I wonder if it can fire off anymore storms in the Houston area.

The 12z HRRR actually brings the low back towards SETX over the run lol.. but then I realized the 13z was out and that looks more reasonable. Basically taking it’s sweet time to get to NETX. In any event, there really doesn’t appear to be any steering currents.

Only .45” overnight so I could use the rain. Storm total would be .86” if I don’t get anything else. Watching that low.

We got 1” back on Tuesday night, .50” yesterday evening, and 1.6” this morning. 3.10” total this week. I was expecting more, but thankful for what I got. Definitely much needed.

Just crossed over the 5 inch mark in northern Grimes county.

0.75 in IMBY overnight. Good enough to have sprinklers OFF in the week ahead.

Light rain and cool as the low spins overhead. AC isn't running - I'll take it.

[Rip76]

Atmosphere too worked over, or do you thing some heating could fire up a few storms.

Would you take your top off of your Jeep is what I’m asking.

We had 0.83" in the swamps of Pearland overnight. Luckily, no standing water in the yard when we got up.

So that low-level circulation that looks eerily like something Allison-ish that's slowly meandering northeastward just north of the Greater Houston area is definitely going to keep going, right?!?

Asking for a friend.

So this was the biggest system for the whole month of May and I couldn’t even get an inch of rain from it. I know some folks saw a lot of rain but for my neighborhood it was pretty much a bust.

I’m sorry to hear that Jason. I was really pulling for ya and hoping you’d get at least 2 or 3” out of this. It was a very hyped system and it definitely didn’t live up to the expectations for the majority of us.

[DoctorMu]

Euro, Ensemble, Canadian, GFS have 0.5 - 1.5 in of rain until near the end of the month and an alleged cold front. We probably have a week without watering ahead with 1.6 in of rain in the past 4 days.


Jason - The models have had so much trouble lately, that you're due some mojo!

[Pas_Bon]

We got 5.6” in 24hrs here in Kemah. Hallelujah.

[djmike]

Finished with 11.14” since Thursday IMBY in Beaumont. Did I win?? Lol. On to some nice sunny few days. I need to dry out for a bit.

[Cromagnum]

Looks like a small chance Sunday and then clearing out for most of the week.

[DoctorMu]

A surprise shower and 0.1 in this morning.

Euro, GFS, Canadian, Ensemble all have 1 inch of rain or less for the remainder of the month...

Last year we had 9.76 in of rain in May and 10 inches of precip. in June!
