That's more to my liking, wxman57! Keep those warm temperatures in your forecast and I won't need to pack a jacket...
One week from today 8 of us that are Members/Pro Mets/Staff of our KHOU Weather Forum will travel to S Padre Island. Next Tuesday evening the 2018 National Tropical Weather Conference kicks off with a Welcome Reception and a chance to catch up with old friends and meet new ones. Wednesday morning starts 3 long days of intense Conference Presentations/Discussions. This year we are very fortunate to have the most KHOU Weather Forum Members attending/presenting/participating we've ever had. We intend to share a lot of information and knowledge gained as well as pictures on our KHOU Weather Forum and our Social Media Feeds. All of us our honored to represent our Weather Community and our SE Texas Neighbors and beyond at this fantastic Conference.

Good morning from a warmer and partly cloudy S Padre Island. The Conference kicks off the morning with Facebook Live coverage of Dr. Phil Kltzbach and Colorado State University giving their 2018 Early Hurricane Seasonal Forecast at 9:00 AM CDT. I want to remind everyone that the Seasonal Outlooks tend to be first thoughts regarding Hemispheric and Atmospheric conditions EXPECTED when Hurricane Season begins and what those conditions may be during the peak season months of August, September and October. Remember as these Hurricane Seasonal Outlooks begin to be released and with seasonal updates as we get closer to the start of Hurricane Season 2018, it only takes one to make for a very bad Season!

SE Texas/Victoria/Corpus Christi Harvey Media Panel. Blake Mathews shared his experience and video as Harvey Flood waters begin to rise at the KHOU Allen Pkwy Studios and the point when David Paul made the call for a helicopter recue from the roof to evacuate as flood waters were approaching the second story. Water eventually reached 7 ft inside the TV Station.
