Saw sargent got close to 9 inches just alone today, safe to say its easy to see why im concerned about the flooding threat growing considering this is just day 1 of a very long stretch of wet weather, 12z GFS stays active all of next week- weekend and even going into the following week

A late forming bow echo and MCS gave us 0.91 inches of rain last night.

The atmosphere looks pretty worked over today. A break before more possible action on Thursday.


Texas summer: Yes, it will be hot. Will it rain, especially up in the NW territories? That is the question.

The moisture is there in the eastern Pacific. Will we retain the conveyor belt? Or will it shut off hard like in 2023?

Well for places S of I-10 anyway. I’m sure other counties will be included soon.

GFS continues to show a concerning upper air pattern next week with the upper low this weekend merging with a trough that slowly moves in from the west on monday, ridging builds over this system and traps/ stalls the low in west texas all of next week and into the weekend, if the euro even hints at that, we could be looking at even more days with perhaps more widespread and organized heavy rains, thus magnifying the flooding threat, either way we are locked into this pattern for the rest of the month at least. CMC starting to hint a what GFS is showing
