And to think that storm started basically in your backyard.

Scary - about 6-8 miles north of me. We caught a little rain as the cell headed east on Hwy 21 toward Madisonville and then onto Lake Livingston.

GFS did correctly call energy coming together East of I-45 and North of I-10.

Debris was lifted over 20,000 feet.

Now near Marksville, approaching MS. Almost a tri-state tornado. 4 hours?

Yeah it’s going to produce wedges all the way into Mississippi. Louisiana got hit really hard with it.

Dynamics tend to favor May for severe weather vs April. This storm season has already been crazy. Dixie Alley seems to be way worse than Tornado Alley lately. Its certainly been bad this year.

Our house flooded (busted hot water heater) since we’ve been holed up at the ranch in Colorado County. I went home to check on things in Magnolia. It was nasty cleaning out the chicken coop.

Glad to see the house getting pounded right now by that cell.

Y’all.....I’m willing - at this point - to trade toilet paper for rain.

Please mail any rain to: “Pas Bon, League City, TX”

Thanks.

Weird

“Numerous thunderstorms….some severe have rapidly developed over C TX late this morning.

While a strong short wave was expected to cross the region this afternoon in the NW flow aloft, it was expected to be too dry behind last night’s cold front to produce thunderstorms…clearly it is not dry enough and elevated storms have formed. The main threat with these storms will be large hail.

Some of the most reach short range models are starting to pick up on the development and move storms quickly across the area this afternoon…mainly along and just N of I-10.”

Don't you worry. Since it's been so dry, we've scheduled our tractor guy to come out and mow our back lot on Tuesday. Looks like we'll be getting water from that system headed our way today.
