I feel you. Another day, another Lucy. :lol: :cry:

Another cluster of showers dying on the Brazos Co. line (aka AggieDome).

How Significant Was the 1877/78 El Niño?

Technically, we've just past the "hottest calendar day" of the year. The heat continues, but we're progged for more mid to upper 90s. Berta over NOLA has been our only 100+°F day in CLL. Hopefully, I haven't jinxed things with a silver lining of optimism.

Hell, I didn’t even know there was any rain in the area today. Sure wasn’t anything down my way. Must’ve been N of 10.

I see changes in the 7-10 say window, models are coming into better agreement that the heat ridge is going to split apart, leaving texas in an area of general weakness between the highs , im pretty confident daily rain chances will be returning soon

Jolly Good....just in time for peak hurricane season. Lol.
Thank God it looks to be quiet on our front door if that occurs.

Yeah, no worries about the tropics, but GFS/ CMC see some cooler air and gulf moisture returning with healthy rain chances
