June Ends - Hottest on Record

[srainhoutx]

101F reported the past hour at IAH. Same here as well.

[wxman57]

Wxman57,

Are you surprised at how hot it is this early in the season?

Well, as dry as the ground is we shouldn't be too surprised. I didn't expect 105 degrees here last week. So much for that upper low moving into Texas and cooling us down this week.

[srainhoutx]

Storm motion will be similar to yesterday, ENE to WSW it appears.

AREAS AFFECTED...SERN TX / SWRN LA

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 061905Z - 062000Z

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP/INTENSIFY OVER THE
NEXT FEW HOURS ACROSS SWRN LA AND SERN TX. THE STRONGER STORMS WILL
FEATURE SPORADIC MICROBURSTS CAPABLE OF POCKETS OF STRONG TO
LOWER-END SEVERE WIND GUSTS...AND LEAD TO ISOLD WIND DAMAGE.

VISIBLE SATELLITE/SURFACE COMPOSITE SHOWS A BUILDING CU FIELD
DEVELOPING FROM NEAR/E OF I-45 N OF HOU EWD INTO INTERIOR PORTIONS
OF SWRN LA...WHERE TEMPS HAVE WARMED TO NEAR 100 DEG F. 12Z LCH
RAOB EXHIBITED A VERY MOIST/POTENTIALLY UNSTABLE BOUNDARY LAYER WITH
LOWEST 100 MB MEAN MIXING RATIO 18 G/KG. THE AREA VAD/S
/KLCH-KHGX...MOST RECENTLY LDB PROFILER/ SHOW 20 KTS 3-4 KM AGL
FLOW--AND THIS IS SLIGHTLY STRONGER THAN SURROUNDING VWPS/VADS
ACROSS THE NRN GULF COAST REGION. THIS BELT OF RELATIVELY STRONGER
LOWER TO MID TROPOSPHERIC FLOW MAY ACT TO LOCALLY MAXIMIZE ISOLD
WIND DAMAGE CONCENTRATION. GIVEN THE STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATE
ENVIRONMENT...WATER LOADING PROCESSES LEADING TO WET MICROBURSTS
WILL PROBABLY LEAD TO ISOLD WIND DAMAGE AS STORMS MATURE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON AND PROPAGATE SLOWLY WWD.

Storms have developed a bit farther south than yesterday. They're heading straight for downtown now. Moving WSW toward my house!

[Rip76]

Nothing in freaking Pearland..

[wxman57]

Nothing in freaking Pearland..

They may reach as far south as Pearland in the next few hours. Be patient.

[jasons2k]

Yeah!! I haven't seen the radar this active in a long time - and it's not even 3:00 yet!! And the super bonus is that we are in a prime location today based on how it's moving

[jasons2k]

The I-10 corridor on the east side looks like it could get some flooding if those storms continue.

[rnmm]

Hopefully they will reach the coast soon too!! Congrats to those of you who are getting rain!! Are you playing in it yet? I would be!!

[Katdaddy]

Awesome to see the radar light across SE TX. This is so needed!

[srainhoutx]

IAH now 103F before the rain moves in. 102F in my backyard.

[Rip76]

Lightning never looked so beautiful.
