Hey Rip - I'm staying up.....been a long time since we have had severe storms like this marching across Texas to SE Texas.

[Andrew]

Radar is picking up possible rotation in Lee county west of Giddings.

[wxdata]

Both GRK and HGX's radar indicate a few meso storms west/northwest of La Grange

[wxdata]

Ham radio report- 2 inch hail and winds gusting to 60 mph west of San Antonio

[biggerbyte]

This stuff out west is ours tonight, folks. Looks to be a nasty night.

[Katdaddy]

No doubt I will wake up just before the bow echo. I have weather time clock built-in and it always works.

[rnmm]

These storms gonna make it to Galveston County tonight? I have a friend in Cedar Creek....she said it got pretty rough in her neck of the woods for a bit

[biggerbyte]

There needs to be a storm watch here in s.e Texas. I'm concerned about hail and wind, but not so much tornadoes.

My mom asked me how fast that large bow echo is moving southeast? Is there any hail and strong gusty wind being generated by that thing? My mom also asked when is that bow echo anticipated to arrive here in southeast Texas, around two hours?

It will be close but she should make it just in time. I think you should have enough time to get her but it will be very close. Any delays or any unanticipated problems could result in you getting stuck in the middle of it.

latest RUC mesoanalysis indicates over 2000 J/KG mixed layer CAPE with virtually no capping in place. MCS strengthened after crossing the I-35 corrider as it interacted with the seabreeze. See no reason to believe this things weakens as mature cold pool interacts with moist (PW >1.8 inches) relatively unstable air mass

Need to watch it, but the line may not get to Houston until sometime after 11pm

[Mr. T]

The last time the area recieved widespread rainfall was the May 14th squall line. It has been a while...

Yes!!! What makes things worse, is many areas did not get hit today from the storms out of the south. These areas remain very unstable. May see less of an issue in areas that did get the storms.

[weatherag]

as impressive an MCS as I can remember down here in quite a while

[weatherag]

slight weakening as the leading edge slowly propogates SE'ward....we'll have to see if it can hold together. Maybe I was being too optimistic

[biggerbyte]

Folks in Harris County, and south, should be on the lookout for some very strong winds as this passes over. Everyone should get their business away from home done by 11 PM. There will be some brief heavy rain for most in the area, but the hail and wind potential for some will be grand.

What do you think the cause of that is? The lack of heating?
