Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: HOT!!-Watch the tropics
I'm getting concerned about this ' overall pattern' we are in.
No wind threat please!

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: HOT!!-Watch the tropics
Jason and Steve you both are echoing the thoughts I have been having concerning both TD2 and the overall pattern this season so far. Even though we are in an obvious lull, thankfully, there is no telling when precip will begin to refire like it did last night. Now that we have had this type of weather 2 weeks in a row I hope the whole pattern takes a break!! The silver lining is we can now start a drought cancel thread for almost all of Texas.
While I was babysitting my granddaughter in the Copperfield area(NW Houston) this afternoon my area got hit by a 1.5" downpour that flooded the Spring Branch area and turned my wife's normal 10 minute commute into a 45 minute one. She drove through water that was to the door sill to get home. Fortunately it drained off quickly and we haven't had any more downpours like that.

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: HOT!!-Watch the tropics
Just picked up a quick half inch of rain in NW Harris County. Concerning is the plume of moisture that extends well out into the Gulf. If this stream of of showers/storms linger over the Metro area the flooding issues are going to cause problems a bit later.
Edit to update rainfall to 1.4 inches so far this morning.

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: HOT!!-Watch the tropics
I just dumped 2.25" out of the gauge with about 0.80" of that coming this am in a line that moved through with VERY INTENSE CG in our area. I'm a little surprised we didn't lose power since we were basically being assaulted by CG for about 15 minutes. Many of the strikes were very close. This morning's amount takes us to 6.23" so far this month.
I too am quite concerned about the slug of moisture offshore of SE TX. Brings up the real possibility of some more flooding rains for the metro area if that slug turns into real rains.

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: HOT!!-Watch the tropics
It rained most of the day here at the house, but fortunately it wasn't as intense as this morning was. It fianlly stopped raining here at about 5 pm. I think there is about 0.40" in the gauge from today's rains. I've had quite enough for a while thank you.

I get email alerts for various things, figured I would post this one:

Posted:2010-07-08, 09:01:11 [UTC]
Ref.no.: FL-20100708-26878-USA
Situation Update No. 1
On 2010-07-09 at 10:22:58 [UTC]
Event: Flood
Location: USA State of Texas Laredo, Rio Grande City
Situation:
As a strong storm dumped rain on the already high Rio Grande, those living downstream braced for a torrent of water that already had closed two international bridges and led to evacuations on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border further up the river. Residents of some neighborhoods in the downstream towns of Roma and La Grulla were being evacuated in anticipation of floodwaters. Shelters were readied for residents of low-lying neighborhoods in several communities. And the last hand-drawn ferry on the U.S.-Mexico border was hauled out of the Rio Grande's swift and rising waters for the second time this week. A tropical depression that came ashore just north of the mouth of the Rio Grande on Thursday was expected to add 6 inches to 8 inches of rain to rivers and reservoirs in south Texas and northern Mexico already swollen from the heavy rains dropped by Hurricane Alex last week.
In Rio Grande City in Starr County, the river rose above the 50-foot flood stage and was expected to reach 53 feet, or major flood stage, by Sunday. A flash flood warning was scheduled to remain in effect for the lower Rio Grande Valley until Friday night. Starr County Emergency Operations Director Gene Falcon said flooding from the river likely would effect farmland in the area, but the larger problem would be what the river did to a local tributary, the Arroyo Los Olmos along the east side of town. "The river level will be so high that it will start backing up (the creek)," Falcon said. It already was starting to happen late Thursday as water in the creek appeared stagnant and possibly even moving slightly upstream, away from the Rio Grande. Some residents in neighborhoods along the scrub-choked creek were beginning to move valuables to higher ground. At the Retama Manor nursing home, administrators waited for local emergency officials to advise them of any risk posed by the Rio Grande. The facility sits next to an international bridge on the banks of the river, just feet from the swift-moving water. Nan Impink, a spokeswoman for the facility, said a plan is in place to move residents if there is a danger of flooding. "For us that's an option of last choice because it's very disruptive to patients," she said. The International Boundary and Water Commission, which operates dams, reservoirs and levees along the Rio Grande, increased the amount of water released from Falcon Dam, just west of Roma, on Thursday, while also diverting part of the river's flow into a wide floodway near Mission.
Roma's police chief, Jose Garcia, said the water was expected to rise 4 feet to 6 feet overnight, prompting the decision to require about 30 families to evacuate from small subdivisions near the river. "We just want to make sure we don't get caught by surprise," Garcia said. Even as the remains of the tropical depression moved west through northern Mexico, heavy rains were forecast for south Texas, said meteorologist Joseph Tomaselli of the National Weather Service in Brownsville. "We won't begin to dry out until Saturday," he said. In Los Ebanos, home to the only hand-pulled ferry on a U.S. international border, ferry operator Mark Alvarez was directing Sullivan City firefighters as they attached tow lines and began dragging the ferry toward dry land. Just across the fast-moving river in Mexico, teenagers dove head first into the river from the roof of a submerged building along the water's edge. "We want to pull it up because we don't want the current to take it," Alvarez said. "We're going to dry dock it as much as possible." Upstream, authorities in Laredo evacuated several neighborhoods close to the river and a 16-story hotel on the banks as the river grew to 42-feet deep and water began to creep into some homes.

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: HOT!!-Watch the tropics
My area of town missed the other storms today but we're getting blasted right now. It's so dark that i can't see my backyard fence. Lightning and thunder galore. So much lightning my husband even commented on it. Interesting special weather statement from lc nws. I don't think i've ever heard of a "significant" weather advisory before. My daughter told me that part of the power is out at her boyfriends apt. I'm guessing a power surge from a nearby lightning strike.
Edit to add: local met said we received about 2" of rain in 30 minutes.

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: Typical Summer Pattern-HOT!!
After 6+" of rain the first two weeks of this month, we have now had no rain for a week and I have already had to water some of the areas of the yard that get a lot of sun.
Currently at 99F with a HI of 117F!!! If this keeps up we will end up under a heat advisory. Ours trips at 108F HI for 2 days in a row.
edit 8pm: Currently 91f with a HI of 102f. It is not anywhere near comfortable outside as there is no air movement. High today at the house was 101F.

Re: SE TX/SW LA weather: Typical Summer Pattern-HOT!!
After a 101F high today here at the house the tstorms are popping up and cooling things down on the West side. We've had a lot of noise but no rain yet. Most of what is on the West side of Houston is passing up to the S and W. It may get to you Steve. Looks like Jen is getting now. I'm hoping the storms to our NE(thank you LA) hold together and give the whole metro area another good soaking. It has been so hot it is almost like we didn't have the 6"+ of rain already this month.

It has David. Blew over some of our heavy pool furniture. Raining buckets now with frequent CG.

Edit to add: Ended up with an inch and a half in the old rain bucket. Storms to the E are progressing into the Metro Area. Tomorrow could be interesting.

Steve, just got off the phone with our daughter. She is reporting power out in many places along Hwy 6 at West Road. There are also trees down and signs over or pulled out of the ground. Did you get that at your place? Fortunately she is home now and they are ok and have power at the house.

We are fine David and we have power (good to be on the same circuit as a hospital).
