STORM2K

Wow! Had a shower off hwy 6! Brief but we heard it in the building! Yipeee!!!!

Have some rain up here in Kingwood as well!

Its raining out now, I think its tapering off though... Saw some brief flashes too... Nice! Hope its a sign of things to come!!!

looks like the storms are getting stronger north of Houston. Looks like some nice storms are heading towards the Lufkin area. Earlier Matagorda county saw GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL! But then the storms died as they crossed Houston to just some heavy rain, but now it looks like they are firing up again to our north. The NWS has lowered rain chances for tonight from 70% to 50%. I hope that the 100% for tomorrow stays and that we get a good, long 1-3" soaking! That would be nice...

***I would like to see some green grass again! ***

IT IS POURING RIGHT NOW!! LOTS OF THUNDER TOO!!

We've been getting pounded all morning long here in central Montgomery County...over an inch easy. The tail end of this system is pushing off the north and we will see a break after this. I'm not sure if we will get anymore after this one moves through but I sure hope so.

We have been having some light rain around here all day, looks like the most of it is off to the east of here... It was just nice to have a yucky rainy day for once!

I am getting rain shower after rain shower after rain shower today. I have also had 2-3 storms with thunder and heavy rain. I would predict I have seen 1-2" easy so far today. Also, looking on radar, another storm seems to be approaching from the south and I can already hear the thunder.

send that rain east please

I haven't gotten ANYTHING today, just around 0.1". Its been a dissapoitment so far today...

I just noticed that dewpoints are beginning to fall a bit (from the lower 50s earlier to the middle 40s now), as they have fallen, the temps. have also fallen. I am in the middle 40s right now at my house and hooks is at 48 (down from the lower to middle 50s). It feels winter-like for sure! Latest forecast for tomorrow is another chilly one...cloudy with a high in the lower 50s. Rain chances are back on Wednesday!

VERY little in Beaumont today.

Spoke to soon, just had a huge burst of rain with lots of lightning and thunder. Rain guage has spiked up to 1/2 inch. After this little back edge of heavy rain, looks like that will be it for me! Oh well, 1/2 inch is certainly better than 0.1". Besides, areas that needed this rain way more than I did got some today. North Texas looked to have gotten a pretty good soaking. That I am happy for.

The heavy rain looks to be racing towards you! Don't worry, your going to get it soon enough.

I thought so too when I saw it but it was surprisingly little. I guess that's it for the big rain event with huge chances of rain Saturday night, today and tonight.

Normally, I wouldn't complain but we really need it. Looks like a whopping 0.16" here and I don't see anything else coming.

Thanks to a very heavy pocket of rain that moved over my house, I actually ended up with a suprising inch, after haveing not much rain throughout the day. I'm happy!
