Re: C/SC TX Weather: Frying Pan Summer

FWIW, JB is tweeting this morning that the worst of the summer heat for Texas (east of I-35) has probably already occurred and especially so after July 5th.

I hope that verifies and that it means a more active influence from the tropics (i.e. rainfall).

Looking at the Euro seasonal forecast it looks like a active tropical season for July, August, and September.

Hopefully we in Texas will just get some good tropical downpours and nothing more organized than that.

Sea level pressures are forecast to be lower than normal throughout the Caribbean and GOM.

Based on both the GFS and Euro this Sunday morning ... I'd say we have at least a week ahead of no rain and slightly above average high temperatures. No surprise, I guess. :roll:

JB didn't elaborate in the tweet. Others though are suggesting the Cockroach Ridge of Death (i.e. high pressure in summer) will erode some, opening up a tropical influence for us.

I'm thinking our friend Rgv20 is going to enjoy some rain later this week though ... lucky!

:uarrow: Extremely lucky! :cheesy:

Hopefully we can send you a couple of showers :)

According to the models we are going to be right on the northern edge of the deep tropical moisture but hopefully that would be enough to get some good rain.

...ADDITIONAL RAINFALL POSSIBLE FOR DEEP SOUTH TEXAS...

DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE APPROACHING DEEP SOUTH TEXAS FROM A TROPICAL
WAVE NOW LOCATED OVER THE EASTERN BAY OF CAMPECHE WILL INCREASE
THE RAIN CHANCES ACROSS THE REGION STARTING ON WEDNESDAY OF THIS
WEEK. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AS THIS TROPICAL WAVE MOVES CLOSER TO THE
GULF COAST OF MEXICO. THE RAIN CHANCES WILL THEN START TO DIMINISH
SOMEWHAT LATER THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT STARTS
BUILDING BACK IN PLACE OVER THE REGION AND THE REMNANTS OF THIS
TROPICAL WAVE MOVE FURTHER INLAND OVER CENTRAL MEXICO. ALTHOUGH
THE RAIN CHANCES WILL BE DIMINISHING THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED MAINLY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THROUGH SUNDAY.

AT THIS TIME THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER GIVES THIS TROPICAL
WAVE A 30 PERCENT CHANCE OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE THROUGHOUT
THE NEXT 48 HOURS. THIS TROPICAL WAVE WILL LIKELY BE ONLY A RAIN
MAKER FOR DEEP SOUTH TEXAS WITH OVERALL EXPECTED RAINFALL AMOUNTS
THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT RANGING FROM A HALF OF AN INCH TO ONE AND A
HALF INCHES. SOME AREAS COULD SEE LOCALLY HEAVIER AMOUNTS. THE
BEST RAIN CHANCES WILL LIKELY BE ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE RIO GRANDE
RIVER THROUGHOUT THIS WEEK. SINCE THE 2011 ATLANTIC HURRICANE
SEASON IS WELL UNDERWAY RESIDENTS OF DEEP SOUTH TEXAS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK FROM THE
NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER FOR THE MOST UP TO DATE TROPICAL
INFORMATION.

ANY RAINFALL PRODUCED BY THIS SYSTEM SHOULD PROVIDE SOME ADDITIONAL
SHORT TERM RELIEF FROM THE CURRENT DROUGHT CONDITIONS AFFECTING
DEEP SOUTH TEXAS. ALTHOUGH NO WIDESPREAD FLOODING PROBLEMS ARE
EXPECTED FOR DEEP SOUTH TEXAS THIS WEEK SOME MINOR FLOODING OF LOW
LYING AREAS AND ROADWAYS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

The Brownsville area was the big winner today, it Rain anywhere from 3 to 5 inches.
At my house I only received 0.74 inches, with more rain in the forecast for tomorrow. :)

Oh, and Arlene brought a friend with her to the Valley....
