nrgjeff Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Friend in Coppell TX (maybe Valley Ranch, Irving TX) had baseball size hail. SPC reports are legit. His photo is next to a peach about the size of a baseball if not a touch bigger. Wow just wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 according to what I have heard, there was a highly damaging hailstorm in Dallas- Fort Worth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiegeog Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 More storms look to be on tap this evening, hopefully they can hold together at least to I-20. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Missed out on all the storms late last week and over the weekend. Small chances throughout this week, but I'm keeping an eye on the tropics, hopefully this next system can stay far enough west to give Texas some good widespread rain next weekend/week.

raindancewx Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Saturday looks like a pretty good day for precipitation in the SW. Fingers crossed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Seems like I've had about 1" of rain total over the last couple of months. The tropical low is finally making its way towards Texas, and will help provide increased rain chances this week. WPC says 1.5" or so for this week... I'd be happy with 0.5" at this point.

Well, I guess something is better than nothing, but this has been very disappointing with such a tropical airmass in place. I keep consistently missing out on heavier showers/thunderstorms IMBY. Today was pegged as "the day" for rainfall and I may have received 0.20", tops. Maybe I'll get lucky and there'll be a rogue overnight storm with the weak frontal passage.

cheese007 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Feels like there's an inverse relationship between severe storm liklihood and SPC risk level for the DFW metro this season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cstrunk Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 A TUTT is moving west along the gulf coast, which is expected to provide increased rain chances over the next week. WPC currently has my location at about 1-1.25" over the next 7 days, with 4-5" possible farther south over the LA/TX coastal areas. Crossing my fingers.

raindancewx Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Heavy rains missed Albuquerque itself today, but slammed areas due north and south of the city. A levee failed in Belen - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Moderate to occasionally heavy downpours have been frequent across the area for the past week or so. Well, frequent everywhere but IMBY, as they're still too scattered in nature. Just can't catch a break. NWS Shreveport mentions a NW-flow pattern setting up by mid-week next week that may bring some organized convection into the region overnight into early morning hours. I sure hope that pans out better than the spitting match mother nature is currently competing in around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 We have returned to basically completely dry weather conditions for the foreseeable future in East TX. Highs are reaching the upper 90's with low-mid 100's forecast by the end of this week. 104F on Friday and Saturday. Hot hot hot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindancewx Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 97F here at 8 pm. In late July. Pretty impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Finally able to "cash in" on about 0.3" or so this morning. Not much but it helps. Dry weather for the rest of the week is in my forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is my very early idea for winter - Nice post and matches my general thoughts for the winter. For my area (E TX) I expect a cool winter with many frost and freezes but likely not a lot of hard freezes. I do not foresee the extreme cold like we saw last winter (6 degrees), but many more freezes overall. We also are very likely to see above normal precip. Should be a good winter, but likely nothing historic. I will call for 3-5" of snow this season here and 4-6" for DFW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 KFWS radar storm totals for the last 48 hrs. Perhaps some areas of Texas will be changed from D3 drought to D2 drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raindancewx Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 The Jamstec trended to a wetter winter for NM & TX, but also warmer. Shows a somewhat weaker El Nino. Last August, there was a huge correction away from the previously shown El Nino in July. Not this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raindancewx Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Starting to think we have a shot at >=5 inches of rain for June-August here. Well over four inches through 8/17 at 7:30 pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstrunk Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Hot and dry. Slight chances for thunderstorms during mid-week coming up, but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
