From Jeff regarding the rainfall totals across the Region since January 1st:

Texas has had just about everything thrown at it over the last few months…rainfall wise… and much like the staggering lack of rain in 2011, 2015 is already going down as one of the wettest years ever on record…no surprise we have been dealing with flooding and a lot of it.

The most impressive statistic is for the City of Baytown. Baytown has recorded 54.15 inches of rain to date this year which is an impressive +31.77 inches above normal. The entire annual rainfall for Baytown is 59.92 inches. Only 5.77 inches to reach their yearly average rainfall and it is only June 18th.

The City of Brenham have surpassed their annual average rainfall of 45.14 inches. As of June 18th, Brenham has recorded 45.77 inches of rainfall.

The City of Crockett has recorded 40.30 inches of rainfall through today. The previous January 1-June 18th rainfall recorded was 35.36 inches in 1935

The City of Sugar Land has recorded 41.96 inches of rainfall in 2015 which is +21.21 inches above normal. 20.40 inches fell in the month of May alone (+15.77 above normal for May) or 49% of the 41.96 inches fell in May. The 8.04 inches on May 25th was 39% of the May monthly total and 19% of the 2015 total. The 4 day combined rainfall from May 24-27 was 11.45 inches or 27% of the 2015 total in only 4 days. The 20-day period from the 11-30 of May recorded a staggering 20.32 inches of rain or 48% of the 2015 total. Of the 20 days rain fell on each day except 4.

January 1-June 18th Rainfall (Normal yearly rainfall):

BUSH IAH: 34.62 (49.77)
Hobby: 38.48 (54.65)
College Station: 31.09 (40.06)
Baytown: 54.15 (59.92)
Bellville: 37.83 (41.75)
Brenham: 45.77 (45.14)
Crockett: 40.30 (45.18)
Westbury: 39.49 (51.82)
Huntsville: 41.48 (49.08)
NWS League City: 42.57 (56.81)
Richmond: 38.47 (49.08)
Washington State Park: 41.05 (41.68)

BUSH IAH is currently running 12.71 inches above normal for 2015
Houston Hobby is currently running 15.93 inches above normal for 2015

The City of Conroe has recorded 29.76 inches of rainfall in 2015 which is 8.42 inches above normal.

Those rainfall totals are stunning, and there are many more eye-popping numbers across the state and up into OK. I've been following the weather in Texas since the 70s and this is easily one of the wettest 2-month periods I've ever seen.

Speaking of more rain, what are the dynamics unfolding around San Antonio & Austin? We're getting more rain again here in Austin, and the radar seems to indicate a growing area of rain with some slight rotation (a MCS?) just north of Uvalde?

There is a shortwave trough across Texas and believe it or not, Carlos remnants from the Eastern Pacific has been entrained into this mess across S Central Texas.

Dang, more rain? Lake Buchanan still needs it, so I guess if it heads due north from SA we could most definitely put a nail in the coffin of the drought for C. Texas.

Latest HRRR seems to shift the focus back toward Mexico and the Rio Grande during the day. That said the HRRR (12Z) breaks out scattered storms across SE/S Central Texas (closer to Victoria and Wharton Jackson Counties and Austin, Waller, Montgomery, NW Harris Counties) across areas hard hit by Bill's rainfall this afternoon into the evening hours. This includes the Coastal tier of Counties as well.

Remember the drought of 2011.

Having rain is better, I think.

Maybe I've just never noticed it before with other storm, but TS Bill still has some pretty good rotation way up there in the middle of the country. Almost looks better organized than it did in the Gulf.

The weekend forecast continues to advertise a weakness across Texas as we remain on the Western periphery of a SE Ridge and an inverted trough extending from NE Mexico into the Edwards Plateau. PW''s remain rather high as additional moisture from remnants of Carlos over Mexico stream into S Central Texas. Expected scattered heat of the day thunderstorm activity across the Lower Rio Grande Valley, the Hill Country and SE Texas to continue throughout the weekend as the inverted trough gradually slips further W.

Isolated to scattered daytime showers and storms look to continue early next week with a bit less areal coverage. By mid week expect rain chances to slowly increase daily as a Western upper ridge develops over Nevada and Utah and the SW monsoon season begins to organize. To the East as pesky Bill exits the Mid Atlantic, a deepening trough develops putting our Region in a NW flow aloft. Monsoonal moisture to our West and increasing low level moisture with an onshore flow off the Western Gulf sets the stage for increasing showers and storms by next weekend. The extended range guidance suggests deep tropical moisture increasing from the Western Caribbean into the Western Gulf as a Eastward progressing Consecutively Coupled Kelvin Wave nears the Eastern Pacific with a favorable MJO pulse of rising air allowing tropical thunderstorms to develop off the Pacific Coast of Mexico and the continuation of the monsoon season across Arizona and New Mexico by the end of June into early July. Have a great weekend and drink plenty of water if outdoors. The heat index may near 100F with all the moisture from saturated soils and partly cloudy skies between the daily scattered thunderstorm activity.
