lost cable/internet for a bit --- torrential rains & incredible lightning in Cypress - I hope the neighbors diseased Bradford Pear tree stays in their yard...

So far, so good. It got eerily quiet. Now the wind is gusting a bit. Lightning, with thunder in the distance. I am thinking I will see some hail, winds ( downburst) and heavy rain. Be safe out there. Anything and everything can pop up. Be weather wary. Larry Cosgrave nailed this early this afternoon. He was really worried about our area tonight.

SHORT TERM OUTLOOK VALID 0300-0600Z...HIGH CONFIDENCE FACTOR
IN SHORT TERM OUTLOOK...LARGE MCC CONTINUES TO PRODUCE VERY HVY
RAINS ALONG THE SRN EXTENT AS IT FEEDS OFF STRONG LLVL MOISTURE

SHOWN IT SLOWING AND HANGING UP ACROSS SRN TX. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR
PERSISTENT STRONG UL DIFFLUENT FLOW COUPLED WITH STRONG LLVL CONVERGENCE
ALONG WSW TO ENE THERMAL BOUNDARY TO FAVOR CONTINUED BACK BUILDING FOR
