[Kingwood36]

When is all this light misty crap supposed to move out of here?

Well I have no power..and I gotta feed a family so I gotta get the pit going but can't because of this light *** misty rain lol

Think about how bad it could’ve been if the soils were saturated.

[Stratton20]

Kingwood36 oh I definitely understand, it’s probably going to take a day or so for this to clear out, maybe sooner, hope your family recovers soon though!

Ok Im over the mist. Winds in Beaumont seem to be slowing a bit gusting to about 30-35ish now. So far max gust was 43 early this morning. Now if we can just push this mist outta here…. Im over Nicholas already. He gave me a headache last two days on who what where when etc. Good news? This is great napping weather.

I’m ready for cold weather.

Here at my job in Rosenberg they get hit much harder than the Wharton area. I didn’t even see any twigs down at my house when I left for work this morning. I get to about Beasley on 59 and started to see a lot more damage. I get to my job and there’s street signs blown down everywhere, a small tree got uprooted, and branches, twigs, and leaves scattered all over the place. And a lot more rain than we got too. We even have some shingles that got blown off the roof of the house over here at my job.

I’m ready for cold weather.

I’m ready for a severe thunderstorm to hit my house and bring me about 5” of rain. I got a quarter of an inch out of Nicholas.

Oh my. 1pm update. Nicholas is still JUST on the coast. I thought he was over Houston??

Well after Harvey hit that winter we had snow....soooooooo...maybe after nick we will have...do I dare say it?

[djmike]

Ok Nicholas is back on the coast per 1pm update. Im sure another center reformation? Also chances of it going back out into the water. Its already RIGHT THERE.

Ha. I was just about to post about this. Fingers crossed for a winter treat now that Nicholas said hello.

Looks like you got a good hit down near Freeport last night, Kingwood. Hope the cleanup and recovery down there is quick for you all. Not much rain here in Katy, but lost power for a few hours overnight with wind gusts 40-50mph. Nice fall'ish day outside today. Ready to put the tropics to bed for us and look forward to fronts, football and playoff baseball (Astros).

I am looking forward to winter this year. And snow!

No worries of restrengthening. Flooding threat continues for extreme southeast Texas (gradually shifting east) and Louisiana.

[djmike]

Overall Im pleased with the outcome here in the Golden Triangle. I got 6.18” so far and still misty. No flooding. Sporadic outages but no damage. Heard transformers popping this morning but all have stopped now. Hopefully those that got damage are ok and prayers for them. Now…on to fall… whens the next possible front??

[djmike]

Not that it means anything but the CoC looks to be moving do east on radar rather than NE like track shows. I know the structure is pretty much gone but if he moves back over open water, which is possible, this does mean that he once again might pull bands of rain onshore off the gulf twards extreme SETX and well into Louisiana . JMO.

[redneckweather]

Alright, enough of this tropical weather crap. It's mid September. I know that first good cool front is lurking around the corner. Where's it at srain? Not seeing a whole lot per GFS.
