Doesn't look like there will be much in the way of flooding, so this is a best case scenario for a landfalling tropical low. Beyond that, the wet pattern looks to continue for much of Texas over the next couple of weeks. Also, CPC is seeing avg rainfall for much of Texas for the summer. Maybe we can get into the Fall without a large drought setting in![]()

Unless a large ridge builds in and lingers for a month or more, a large drought is unlikely to happen this summer. Considering how wet this month has been, once the sun heats up the ground and water begins to evaporate, summer showers will likely result. While not impossible, the chances of a dry summer are continuing to decrease. This year is MUCH greener/wetter than the years 2011-2013.
We’ve now had 21” here since April 30th.
That's incredible. I think I have had over a foot in the past week. Considering most of March and April were dry for me, this rain has helped eliminate the deficit.
