April showers bring May Flowers?

[DoctorMu]

As progged last week on upper level and temp. anomalies - Alaska is heating up by April 4, so there's a better chance at a strong FROPA and line of storms reaching SETX. The only fly in the ointment is a late Saturday arrival that could diminish rainfall.

Showers south of the metro were a nice surprise this morning. I didn't get any in League City, but still nice to see. I laid sod down on Sunday, so I'm really hoping for a nice dose of magic sky water through the weekend to help my water bill somewhat.

Nice sea breeze, but won't get here even with juicy air.

Rain chances are down to 50% tomorrow. Saturday's front is probably in the evening now. As expected. I've lived here too damn long. So predictable.

Don's forecast - not so boring:

.KEY MESSAGES...
Updated at 638 AM CDT Wed Apr 1 2026

- Severe storms expected by early this evening and into the
overnight hours. Potential hazards:
-- Large hail (> 2")
-- Damaging winds (70-75 mph)
-- Tornadoes

The good news is that the FROPA on Saturday has a little juice. Cooler weather should last more than a day! Possibly 3-4. We might snowplow our way into rain with its passage, even if in the evening.

Its looking very wet beyond easter

[GBinGrimes]

Awoke to the glorious sound of rain. Not a passing morning drizzle, either., and a radar that shows more to come. So very thankful.

[DoctorMu]

There's wet stuff falling from the sky. The Elders called it "rain."

[DoctorMu]

Wow. The line of storms made it to the dreaded Hwy 1*5 and are retreating east.

I was surprised the MCS held together until now. The Mesos were iffy on it. 1.5 inches and counting in CLL. We'll take it!

OTOH...There's local flooding out in the streets. TAMU is a mess right now.

Feast or Famine. Saturday's line looked more potent. We'll see.

[Pas_Bon]

It looks like rain chances and rain totals are petering out for this weekend in League City. Ughhhh
Fingers crossed we get some measurable precipitation.

[Cpv17]

It doesn’t look like our part of the state is gonna get much over the next couple weeks. Not surprised.

Today and tomorrow

Looks like that line is already falling apart

Well look at the time of the day. That’s to be expected in the morning hours.

I do not.. repeat.. not, want any rain next Saturday.

There’s a pretty good chance for rain next Saturday, just FYI.

We had a nice squall line last night with a lot of wind. I have received over 4 inches of rain this week. Looks like the next severe weather sequence will be here around mid to late next week.

Line of showers and a few thunderstorms along an advancing cold front will move southeast into the afternoon and evening hours. Highest rain chances for the metro area between 300-800pm. Rainfall amounts of .25-1.5 inches through Sunday morning.

Showers linger south of I-10 into midday Sunday with much cooler temperatures.
