Raining really nicely outside, don't know how much though. But I'm loving it! 53°F

I ended up with 0.65" at my house Saturday night. Not as much as I was hoping for, but that is still helpful. The cooler weather yesterday and today has sure been refreshing.

I have a hard time seeing widespread 4-5" for NE TX like was depicted as of yesterday for the next couple of days. Models already trending downward. I think widespread 1"-3" is much more plausible with isolated higher amounts depending on convective processes and any potential training effects.

Wow, NAM says now barely anything for east TX. Shows how much things can change in a few days. Who knows what's going to happen. I think rain is likely. The question is...how much?

I am thinking 1-3 instead of the 4-6 predicted.

Shreveport just issued a FFW for the Arklatex into ETX region, mentioning 3-5" possible with isolated higher amounts. I think they should have waited until tonight or tomorrow morning to evaluate further, but what do I know... :spam:

I hope they are right, we can use all the rain we can get before the death ridge sets in for summer.

I would love it if summer overall ended up being cooler than normal after this ridiculous heat wave this month. In my memory, the hottest summers tended to feature very hot Memorial Days. This year, the weather pretty much looks average.

I don't even have a 90 on the entire 15 day forecast on the TWC app it gets close but I mean we were hotter than that already. Definitely makes you wonder

Well the good news is ensembles aren't showing any major heat waves. Low 90s is hot in May but for June in Texas is seasonably warm.

Yea, the avg daily high goes up pretty quickly during May. The worst part about this last heatwave wasn't so much the heat (it really wasn't that bad) as it was that it stole the last few weeks of nice weather from us!

Shield of storms/rain in the southwestern zones trying to move into NTX. Fingers crossed they hold together.

Even the CPC has the risks of Excessive heat ending in June in Texas, but I don’t know how long though.

Also got 1 inch of rain so far. Temperature is only 56°F, don’t recall the last time there was a high in the 50s in Late May.

MCVs that survive the day can really crank out some heavy rainfall events during the overnight hours. The best sat and radar presentation in the state right now is associated with the southern cluster of storms that this is spinning towards DFW.

Mesoscale Precipitation Discussion 0236
NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
649 PM EDT Mon May 23 2022

Areas affected...Central TX

Concerning...Heavy rainfall...Flash flooding possible

Valid 232248Z - 240348Z

SUMMARY...Locally expanding and backbuilding areas of heavy
showers and thunderstorms will pose at least a localized threat of
flash flooding heading through the evening hours.

DISCUSSION...The latest radar imagery suggests a weak MCV crossing
areas of the TX Hill Country late this afternoon, and this energy
more recently has been yielding some expansion of shower and
thunderstorm activity. Over the last 30 to 45 minutes, some of the
strongest activity has been over San Saba County where rainfall
rates of up to 2.5 inches/hour have been noted.

Some additional backbuilding of these cells will be possible over
the next few hours. The generally confluent moist/unstable
low-level flow aiming up across the TX Hill Country may foster
some expansion of the convection overall heading through the
mid-evening hours and especially with the aid of additional
upstream shortwave energy crossing the Edwards Plateau area.

Additional rainfall rates of up to 2.5 inches/hour will be
possible, with some isolated storm total amounts through
late-evening up 3 to 5 inches not out of the question. There will
be at least a localized threat for flash flooding as a result.

That cluster is heading towards DFW. Let's get the over early and monkey off our backs.

00z FWD sounding shows some dry midlevel air but minimal cap in place with decent CAPE. Storms stand a chance.
