There have been inches of rain 5 mi north and 5 miles south of my backyard in the last week. I'm in a dry slot out of Jason's nightmares.
We did have frequent enough rain until about 10 days ago.

Wow. All that and we didn't get a drop at my house. It completely vanished and went south towards lake jackson. I expect the atmosphere will now be "worked over" and we won't get anything tonight either.
FINALLY!!!! Decent rain thunder and lightning here in Beaumont! (Over my house!) 1.5” so far and counting. Darker than night here. I had to turn on lights to see! Anyway, this is a welcome surprise today. For 2 months I had only gotten 0.57”. I hear my lawn rejoicing. Round two late tonight into morning looks like its gonna be a doozy for many. Not liking the bowing on models for morning. Stay safe everyone...

Here's hoping that means a lot of rain and not a lot of wind. My yard is basically ceramic pottery at this point.unome wrote: ↑Tue Apr 28, 2020 3:00 pmhttps://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/exper/enhtstm/

Important to note for folks in the Houston area: Just because we saw storms today, it does not mean that tonight's storms won't happen. They are still coming.

.SHORT TERM [Through Wednesday Night]...
Well, there was a bit more shower and thunderstorm activity this
afternoon than expected. A weak shortwave and a little to no capping
has allowed storms to pop up and down across the area, and this is
expected to continue through around sunset. There will be a bit of a
lull in activity from sunset through around midnight, but then the
next round of thunderstorms is expected to begin to approach the
area. A line of strong to severe thunderstorms will quickly move
southward across the area tonight first moving through the northern
zones around 1 to 3am, then racing southward to the Houston Metro
area between 3 and 6am, and finally off the coast by 5 to 7am. This
is slightly later than previously thought as the TT-WRF and HRRR has
slowed the arrival a bit, but once the line gets going it should
speed through the area. The main threat continues to be damaging
wind gusts with the passage, but hail and an isolated tornado or two
is still possible. While severe storms will be possible across the
area, the higher chances will be north of I-10 with increasing
threat the further north you go.
After the passage of the line of storms in the early morning, the
rest of the day will feature clearing skies with a northerly wind.
High temperatures tomorrow will be in the mid 80s across the area,
then dipping down mid to upper 50s tomorrow night.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
A deep upper trough over the southern Great Lakes will allow upper
level ridging to expand over Texas. 500 mb heights will increase
and temperatures will slowly warm on Thursday into Friday. 850
temps warm up on Saturday into Sunday so surface temperatures
should also climb a bit and high temperatures will warm from the
lower 80's on the Thursday to the mid/upper 80's on Friday to the
lower/mid 90's Saturday through Tuesday. Heat index values will
warm to near 100 degrees Sunday/Monday. The upper ridge will
flatten as an upper trough tracks across the northern plains. The
upper trough will phase with a weak short wave over the Rockies to
carve out a deeper long wave trough over the eastern US. This will
allow a sfc cold front to cross the area on Tuesday night bringing
a chance of showers and also some cooler temperatures for the
middle of next week. 43
&&
.MARINE...
Moderate onshore flow with 4 to 6 foot seas are expected through
tonight ahead of an approaching cold front resulting in caution
flags continuing through the night. This line of storms will move
through the area during the early to mid morning hours on Wednesday
bringing strong gusty winds. This line of storms will usher in
northerly winds Wednesday afternoon, becoming moderate overnight
Wednesday possibly resulting in additional caution flags. Light
onshore flow will emerge through Friday, but this flow will increase
to near caution criteria again over the weekend.

Two severe thunderstorm warnings and all sorts of weather activity going on in my county today and not a drop at my house 
All of the storms are going poof now real quick. Looks like the air has been stabilized.
The atmosphere is suppose to destabilize again by tonight. The HRRR shows CAPE values over 3500+ J/kg as the squall line moves through.
We are getting more than enough at my house. You can shut it off now......
2.05” at my house! Hallelujah! More late tonight. Several folks in the Golden triangle received 4-5” past few hours. Hopefully tonights squall line isn’t tooooo bad. I do have a bad gut feeling though. Stay safe!

The humidity level is disgusting right now. That's for sure.
71° dew point here in Wharton. Plenty of moisture in the air.
What time is go time tonight/tomorrow?

Humidity is 74% and dew point is 74 here in Rosharon. Temp is 83. Feels like I need gills.
My TWC app is reporting a dew point of 77 in Rosharon. So no doubt it’s extremely muggy and uncomfortable around your area. It’s looking like around 4am should be go time for you according to the HRRR.
