Texas Spring 2025

[TomballEd]

Looks like some pop up storms are trying to form. At least here in Irving/Coppell.

The tail of the positively tilted trough is hanging back into Oklahoma and Texas with little vorticity maxima, enough for storms despite dewpoints in the 50s.

Loads slow but you can see it... https://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/imagery/interactive-maps/water-vapor-imagery

HRRR shows very isolated showers, a few with lightning, around much of the E half of Texas. Kind of showers where one place gets a quarter inch of rain and another spot a few blocks away gets nothing.

Noticed that. Comfortable at the surface with a dry breeze. Clouds are thickening though no rain yet.
Edit: Pop up storms in western Dallas county. Looks like my house is getting wet.

Next week's record heat will especially suck for SA people that somehow really didn't get really any rain the last week or so.

I was lucky to get what I did up near Canyon Lake, which by the way continues to make new all-time lows every day. Not great Bob.

FW is now exclusively forecasting 100F+ within the 7 day forecast for DFW. Which if it pans out is close or breaking records.

Not sure I buy exclusively 100F reading yet, given the recent rainfall up here, but even if it doesn't mid 90s and residual moisture will be humidity. Disgusting.

Can't wait for all the people who complained about the rain to now complain it's too hot to be outside

[rwfromkansas]

I think the 100 talk is nonsense. We just had 8 inches of rain. Come on. Probably 97-98.

Still a horrible reminder that summer is almost here.

[Brent]

Yeah I'm not sure we get much over 90 here and technically we hit 90 in April already

The humidity is gonna be wretched though for sure

[Stratton23]

NWS calling for 96-97 here next week, absolutely putrid, looks like the typical summer heat ridge pattern is finally becoming established, north texas may get lucky with some storms over the next few weeks, for the rest of the state it just looks like an extended period of very dry and very hot weather ahead

[txtwister78]

Wouldn't you know when forecast and models were showing next to nothing regarding shower/storms today we actually have some pop up scattered storms across SC TX and better yet a cluster headed south toward western areas of San Antonio.

Not much, but I'll take it of course, but nice to see something bust in a positive direction for a change down here.

Good. Not ready for perpetual summer heat. I'm enjoying the cool evenings and cool mornings that May has delivered so far. Nice temps even today with the Mother's Day cookout. All good things must end though.

I see alot of mid 90’s to low 100’s next week and beyond, hope folks cashed in on the rain, because it looks like this is the start of the annual heat ridge drought pattern, that ridge is going no where once its parked over texas

I don't think we're there just yet. Obviously this week will definitely feel like it (summer heat high pattern) but models are hinting at another active pattern beyond next week perhaps across portions of the southern plains including parts of Texas.

I don't see the heat dome settling in long term over the state beyond next week thankfully but we're at a point now where low to mid 90's may begin to become more common as we move into the latter part of May.

Hey the days start getting shorter in 6 weeks

I like the way you think.

Had almost 0.6" Sunday. A high of 62F down here while my parents in Iowa hit 86F and Minot, ND hit 97F is really wild.

[rwfromkansas]

I wish the Mexican desert was not so close. Ugh.

Wednesday is going to suck. I downplayed it, but it looks legit at this point. Wow.

Hope the stormy shift at the end of the month happens so we get one more round before summer hell.
