Lucky!! Only a quarter inch here one hour southwest of you.

We should see some serious improvements on this next drought monitor update for the state. Thankfully, it appears that this may not be a single event. Honestly, I cannot remember a year when receiving widespread rain in Texas this time of year did not result in additional rain shortly afterwards. Hopefully, this is the beginning of a very wet May. Most areas near me are around 10 inches for annual rainfall. On average, we should be around 20.

What a great day. Over 2 inches here at my house on the northwest side of town. Much needed, I'm thankful!

Was able to check the rain gauge this morning and found 2.8". Heaviest rain in one day since Sept. 26, 2020.

Edwards Plateau/Hill Country/SCTX got some much needed rain the last few days...

[WeatherNewbie]

At least DFW will get more rain May 12-15. It always rains during the Byron Nelson golf tourney.

I thought we were going to float away last year. I've never seen a river form so quickly like what happened on 16/17.

This is quite the story right now. +27 daily soi and monthly SOI has skyrocketed to +17 one of the highest for April, it will rise some more. +20 monthly SOI is usually reserved for the strongest of Ninas this time of year. April has seen 1 small negative SOI day, just wow. Nina is going to strengthen.

Probably. It’s really hard for a storm to get this far west without some high or trough pulling it north.

SPC now has severe storms through May 2nd

May 1st is in Western Texas

May 2nd is northern Texas, Texarkana area, & most of Oklahoma.

[Ntxw]

Some decent qpf, round of rain, looking likely in Oklahoma and North Texas this coming Sunday into Monday. Where and how much yet to be determined but someone along the Red River valley may get a good amount. 1"-1.75" average not bad.

[Ntxw]

Also daily SOI today is +31 .

Maybe for long trackers but not for homebrew storms, Texas is ranked 2nd only to Florida when it comes to Hurricane landfalls.We just had a homebrew hurricane last year in SE Texas with Nicholas.And south Texas with hurricane Hanna of 2020.

TBH the MDR is overrated imo. It’s talked about time after time again. It’s almost as if that’s the only region people pay attention to or care about when the fact of the matter is most storms struggle in the MDR and don’t really get going till they get near the Bahamas or western Caribbean but I’ve found that even most of those don’t come towards us. It seems like the ones that usually come towards us are CAG’s or from stalled out fronts in the Gulf.

0z GFS says Mon 5/2 might be a problem




Might have capping issues of course but dang what a run. Will be interesting to see how this turns out.

Some very beneficial rain up in the Panhandles overnight and into this morning.
