2-3 inch an hour rain is coming down, frequent lighting. We were a miss yesterday and Friday. This should get us to next weekend.

Survive and advance in mid-July.

ICON double downs on a weak TX into Texas next weekend.

Feeling like there's some agreement on lemonade or some weak tropical influence in a week.

I noticed even long term, EURO keeps any ridging in the 10+day forecast largely on our southern flank.

Is this run through Louisiana or down into the Gulf and North into Texas?

Wife, kids and I at our lake house in Toledo Bend (Louisiana side near Many) and it’s been lightning, thunder and torrential rains for a good hour and a half with some minor let up in between. One cell followed by another and one more.

From Florida across the Gulf coast and into Texas..

The latest ICON has it moving into LA. We'll see.

Lampasas and Llano rivers flooded yesterday and the Frio flooded this morning. More flooding rain predicted this afternoon. What a bizarre July out here.

Looks very Louisiana for “Dexter.”

I have a hard time believing anything 57 says on storms now, since he botched Beryl

I don't understand why he's seen as infallible over there. He has whiffed on some pretty big stuff.

Whenever I see him post something I just automatically scroll past it. I never read his posts anymore.

Yep. Summer and winter.

Spotty seabreeze showers around SETX. We just had a small vigorous cell just move through the A&M campus.

The Hill Country is still getting pounded. Drought or flood - seems like no in between.

I'm hoping that Dexter is disorganized so we might see some rain out of it. A sip of lemonade.

Organized LA TC = HEAT for SETX

The Euro forecast would be more conducive to some showers during the weekend. The ridging stays mostly south and becomes a GoM, Caribbean hurricane blocking ridge instead of a DR... and weakens further as July ends. Temps would be about average to a degree or two below average. Less than six weeks to the start of CFB! Give me more of what Euro is offering.

[DoctorMu]

We'll see, but it looks like potential for a "Citrus Express" moisture flow setup. Give Jason and I more of this more Florida-like summer weather.

[Rip76]

Some boomers out there today.
I’ll take this everyday.
