Unfortunately, us in Beaumont are matching whatever Houston gets. Extreme heat with no rain. Actually Houston has the better chance of catching an extreme outermost band than Beaumont does from this system. Id give anything for a 2 min rainfall right about now. Until then, Ill just keep doing the rain dance while this HP just laughs at me.

Yep, when it was wet in the Houston metro area around May and on and off in June,the Golden Triangle was getting dry slotted.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday through Sunday)
Issued at 233 AM CDT Mon Aug 21 2023

The stretch of dangerous heat and humidity will continue through
the long term as the ridge of high pressure builds over Texas.
Expect afternoon high temperatures along and north of I-10 to be
in the 103 to 109 degree range into the weekend with areas along
the coast in the 95 to 100 degree range. Excessive Heat Warnings
and Heat Advisories will likely be needed through Sunday.
Overnight lows continue to be in the upper 70s to low or mid 80s.

There is maybe a sliver of hope for a slight reprieve over the
weekend as the ridge of high pressure slowly slides towards the
Desert Southwest. This may allow for some weak shortwaves to
slide into Texas bringing a very slight chance of showers or
thunderstorms. But, we have been burned by this false hope of
better weather on Days 6 and 7 of the forecast period multiple
times this summer. And even if we do manage to squeeze out a
shower or two from these shortwaves, they won`t do much to help,
if any, our rapidly deteriorating drought conditions.

Am I crazy, or didn't Beaumont and Orange get quite a few rounds in late June and July that snuck over the border?

That's why you must joing me in supporting djmike with the "Beaumont magic."

As long as the moisture can maintain enough spread as opposed to "contracting", then definitely agree with you.
