September 2020:

[DoctorMu]

Rain band stalled literally 5 miles from the house as predicted.

At least it's cloudy and coolish. I'm not running the ***** sprinklers!

[Kingwood36]

I've gotten 4.8 inches so far

[Texashawk]

5.5” in Sienna and counting! Could get 10” at this rate

[DoctorMu]

The CoC appears to have retrograded a few miles SE. Still just off the coast!

[davidiowx]

I’m at 4” now, just has almost an inch in the past 45 min with some heavy heavy rain.

It sure looks like Beta (I still don’t know whether to say he or she lol) has stalled. The radar app I use (MyRadar) has the circulation sitting in the same spot since around noon. Possibly a tad further offshore but it’s hard to tell since I’ve looked at it about 500 times today

[Rip76]

Friendswood has been getting hammered since about 1pm.

[Rip76]

This is nuts.
Flood advisory now.

[Scott747]

Beta is still creeping and almost onshore. Try not to use radar and use visible.

Could be another pulse about to go off just to the ne of the center, right over Sargent.

[DoctorMu]

Ouch - lol the rain backfilled just before a run. not long after calling it out. I'm going anyway.

Sprinklers hopefully off for the year.

The windmap is another good marker. Beta is still offshore.

I have it about 15 mi ese of Port O'connor drifting towards Matagorda Bay.

[davidiowx]

Friendswood area getting pummeled again. Sheesh. I grew up there and Friendswood link used to flood like crazy in heavy downpours.

[Rip76]

2.64 inches in the last hour in Friendswood

[DoctorMu]

Drifting NW again towards Matagorda - the town now. CoC maybe 10-15 miles offshore.

[Scott747]

First recon fix is generally just offshore of Matagorda Bay. Obs to the e support 40 kts but that's being generous.

Second fix in a few.

[sau27]

Beta’s beginning it’s nightly convective blow up. Coming down hard here in Bellaire.

Better at fighting off the dry air than last night. So far.

1 mb drop and nearing landfall on the barrier island to the se of Port O'connor.

Next fix may confirm.

South of Palacios? Just off the barrier island?

Not much huffing and puffing left. 40 mph might be more accurate!
