The summer doldrums are here. Here is a song that makes you think fall. It is a unidentified song.

Some parts of Bryan received 3 inches of rain in less than 40 minutes.

I wish we had at least and inch of rain yesterday, but beggarrs...

Hanging on until...

Oh no, the dewpoints have absolutely been up there the past few weeks area-wide.

But what I was saying is that, even factoring all that in, I often notice on NWS that certain sites like Sugar Land (where I'm at), Navasota, etc are often running notably ticks higher on the dewpoints than the "main order" sites like IAH, Hobby, etc.

In fairness, last year already had a number of upper 90s and 100°F+ days logged by June. Rain frequencies were also notably lower.

The upcoming stretch of heat is bad, but relatively transient (as of now).

However, I really don't understand what it is that causes "gaps" in storm formation?

Like, in the screenshot below, solid storms from Lake Charles to Golden Triangle area, while another axis (albeit, more sparse) is around Victoria/Matagorda areas. Meanwhile, the Houston area looks pretty blank (for now).

Drove from League City to Lake Charles today and right back. Orange area/Lake Charles had some street flooding, it was raining so hard. Booooo!

I tried to catch a bunch in ziplocs and bring it back here, but alas, no dice.

Interesting. The latest GFS has a weakened Beryl delivering a truck full of lemonade to Texas and opening the Gulf as the Death Ridge withers on the vine...

Beryl up to 130 mph and not showing any signs of slowing down. We better hope the Caribbean can shred it up some.
