That’s a funny saying.

“Did y’all get any rain from that storm complex?”

“Nah man, we got Lucy Gapped.”

18z GEFS coming in more aggressive with BOC development, looks like a fire hose of moisture is coming our way!

Are we going to get this all in one shot like over 8 hours or are we looking at an extended period of days of rain? Less flooding of homes if the rain plays out over an extended period than a few hours.
Been here for years since Katrina.

This is going to be a very complex forecast to figure out for next week. Lots of uncertainties. Just have to wait a few days till we get a clearer picture.

Weaksauce shower heading Houston's way. We had maybe a tenth of an inch. Better than nothing. It's cloudy and not hot - the way I like summers in SETX.

Heavy rain off toward Fort Bend and Wharton counties...hopefully it makes it toward Sugar Land...

GFS dropped heavy rainfall totals for Monday and Tuesday...keeps about 2 inches along the coast...

I figured that would happen. Is there high pressure blocking?

Rip76 yes the high builds in while the system tries to lift north which is why it gets sent into mexico, however its still 7-8 days out so their is plenty of time for the strength, position of that heat ridge to change which can affect this systems track

A potential setup for easterlies.

We're seeing a nice little popcorn shower. Almost 2 inch/hr stuff. I'll take 10-15 minutes of this!

Noticeable weaker heat ridge on the 18z GFS, a bit more of a weakness over texas, potentially allowing for an avenue for the system to move northward, doesnt on this run yet, but a bit more of a weakness is showing up on the GFS, something to watch in future runs

Local mets in Beaumont already calling it a done deal it being too far south for any significant moisture for SETX. I think we still have days for this to change.

Herzog said their is a pathway for this system to take towards texas, said faster development and further north would allow the system to track more towards the texas coast,
