Looking promising right now for Texarkana down through east Texas/ Shreveport. The line of storms looks to be slow moving and dumping some good rains atm. Hopefully it expands a little westward towards the Metroplex later today.

If the latest model guidance verifies, we should see an upper-level trough develop across the Central and Eastern U.S. in the 1-2 week time frame. This should push the heat ridge into the Western U.S. with near to slightly below normal temperatures in TX. Rain chances will also likely accompany this feature for at least a few days.


I concur the north Pacific pattern is looking to get a little better. We should see a retrograding weakness.

My only concern is the SOI is still too stubbornly high so cautious with any meaningful rain prospect. But will take anything at this point. If Fall doesn't deliver history of past droughts tell us the next stage will be hydrological, meaning lake levels will be the next problem. A lot hinges on the coming 2nd wet season.


That term is not something you want to hear going towards peak season for those along the coast. Yes, rain is good, but we don't need a hurricane and conditions are likely going to become much more favorable soon.

LOL it looks like storms are going to split the airport and miss to both the East and the West.

Well it’s nice that northwest Tarrant is getting some. Raining just east and west of my house. But, clouds are amazing!

Of course, airport gets nothing. Come on, break the streak.

3.5" of rain in Texarkana today, bringing the 2-day total to 4". 50% chance of rain tonight. 70% chance tomorrow, and 40% tomorrow night.

Looks like JB was right about the coming pattern change. All eyes need to be on the Gulf.

DFW got the trifecta of doom:

- another 100 degree day
- another daily low > 80 (so far anyway)
- another day without measurable rain (only T recorded so far)

A couple of brief heavy downpours this afternoon got me to 0.58" at my house. Just a few miles away at my boss's house... only 0.04". :double: He's not too happy.

The good news is lower temperatures and good chances at scattered heavy downpours over the next couple of days.

*EDIT - additional light rain bumped totals a slight bit.

Got .38 in north FW. Finally didn’t get skipped.

Looks like the most rain since June 3. Basically the only rain since June 3 IMBY.

Latest PDO index from NCEI came out to -2.48 for July which means it strengthened after a short fall in June. MEI came in strong Nina territory at -2.2.

Preconditions are set, there's a chance at winter very strong Nina.

It's very long range for the OPs but they are falling in line with what the ensembles were showing. How about 80s for highs, NW flow and some chances of rain? Yes please!

Aleutian trough really shifts the 500mb flow, so if it pans out is different than what happened May-July.

Unbelievable. Historic. It seems there is no relief in sight for us...just a nasty pattern for rainfall for TX.

The models are zoning in around the 20th. 850mb temps are showing below normal, so it might be real. Even if half is correct would be nice. Perhaps a taste of early Fall? North America's +PNA signal looks like a mid latitude Nino-y pattern.

This would be phenomenal if it holds because it is about to get hot again after the rain chances are done in a few days. It matches with climo though with the averages starting to drop soon.
