Pretty good thunderstorm rolled through Denison during the overnight hours, dumped a bunch of rain quickly and flooded a portion of my back yard.

My yard is happy and singing today!!!!!! :D

Forget summer. Weak or moderate Modoki El Nino is coming :D. Snow snow snow...

...well snow cones anyway at least for now. But you all should feel excited for the months ahead. Fall will be wet and winter will be snowy, book it! That's about a sure fire an indicator that we can get this far ahead.

Once again, the storms get right here and completely fall apart. This has pretty much turned into a cruel joke at this point.

getting some rain so that's a win in my book. Getting some gusty winds as well, will probably knock over any loose branches that didn't fall in the last storm.

yep, I can already tell there will probably need to be more cleaning done based off the winds I'm getting right now.

Looking like the extreme southern part of Texas could be in line for more wet weather, No development likely but some organization possible before land fall from disturbed area in SW GOM.
Low shear above normal convergence and divergence high cape. should be on shore tonite or early tomorrow.

I finally got a little rain over night, not much but every drop helps. The storms that were coming in around 1:30 am Sunday morning split apart before crossing 35W and went to the north and south me, all i got was thunder and lightening and gusty winds.

Finally got a little rain. The gauge read 1/2'' but I don't know how accurate that is since it was raining sideways for most of the storm. The little bit we received sort of helps but as dry as its been and as brown as my grazing pastures are, we need a lot more. Sometimes I wonder why I choose to make a living dependent on the weather..

The EPAC will be active. Maybe one of those storms will get lifted back towards the NE and send some moisture across Texas? The biggest problem is climo, July and August are typically dry and hot across much of Texas. May have to just hunker down and wait for September lol
