Radar shows showers in the Bay City, Angleton areas in Texas. So a few coastal areas in Texas might get a bit of rain. Sadly, those of us inland seem pretty dry.

If you don't live in Texas / Louisiana or have visited in the past 3 months, you're only seeing the drought from a meterological point of view. The drought has been a financial disaster, an environmental disaster, and for many, a psychological disaster. Some places have had under an inch all summer. It's terrible to have so many close calls--yet no rain, no rain, no rain.

You should see the interstates... Lined with trees, but most of them brown and dead or well on their way.

Tell me about it!

I keep hearing that the ridge is going away, but isn't it part of the reason why the TS would not move north? This ridge needs to go away!!

I can see evidence of a VERY WEAK LLC in the vicinity of 26.8N/91W. Too weak to classify, I think. But it would likely go straight to TS when that LLC gets better-defined. I'd look for an upgrade by 10am tomorrow.

Several years ago I drove from Houston to Atlanta and through the beginnings of a tropical storm (can't remember which one now). The entire front of my car was absolutely covered in love bugs. I had to stop and clean them off because I couldn't see out of the windshield. It was crazy.

Where did the 12z models initiate 93L? Were they too far north?

Yeah, it's really terrible. Trees are dying all over the place. If we did get a lot of tropical moisture that caused flooding, or especially a strong TS or hurricane with winds, I think we'd have a real problem with limbs and trees down all over the place. Limbs just fall off trees at the moment because they're dying everywhere. But with a little wind to push them I think it could be a huge disaster. We really need the rain, but I worry what flooding and winds would do.

Oh yeah, it's absolute brutal here. It's so depressing seeing all the grass dead and brown and trees falling. It makes me want to cry. :cry: :cry:

OK STS, you're now thinking along the right lines. Before you jump off the ledge, you should check and see where the models are initializing the low and also we need to see how well (or not well) the models have a hold on the depth of this weekend's trough. And also, I'd like to see the ensemble runs before I get too hung up on an operational run.

I see that to Wxman ..... Also starting to see convection attempt to wrap around from the North .... I think an upgrade is in the works.

Ha, who are you kidding Ivan. I'm starting to feel like we aren't going to get a freakin drop here. This will be almost as heartbreaking as Don. Drought busting rains just 100 miles away. Wow. This is about as bad as it gets.


You are cracking under the pressure STS. This is the way of the tropics, it gives and takes away. Be patient.



and here I am picking the wrong time to stop sniffing glue... :D Thanks IVAN......
