Definite shortwave impulse approaching from W/SW area as storm increasing in coverage and strength. Radar indicated hail poss to .5" diam in cell to N/NE of Katy http://wx.apxsolutionsinc.com/wxradarbaseref.php. Gusty winds here in League City to 25 mph.

It also appears a previously mentioned coastal low may be trying to spin up to the NE of BRO and S of CRP area as indicated by radar returns...hard to say for sure.

Near 290 @ HWY 6 N. HGX is monitoring rainfall rates for Urban/Small Stream Flood Advisory. We'll see.
