Rub it in why don't cha...2" wouldn't even puddle here in Matagorda County. There is no doubt I have lost some St Augustine in my yard. It's large and no way to irrigate. Right where I live we haven't had rain since those rains in June, we have missed every even small opportunity. This rivals 2011 here.
Matagorda County will have a decent shot at some rain this afternoon into the evening hours.
.08" at my house around noon from a brief shower. Maybe next time.

Some areas got a hell of a lot more than that around there.

I understand. Been raining all around us since June. Central/SE Matagorda County is getting 2011 dry.

97L in the gulf, should move slowly west over the next 3-4 days with a small chance to become a named system, should enhance rainfall in texas though as it moves west

CMC/ Ai GFS both have major rainfall events in houston on tuesday- wednesday this upcoming week. CMC and UKMET blow up the remnants of Dolly into a hurricane in the central gulf before moving west to WNW. Needless to say its going to be an interesting time ahead
