August 22, 20205 yr Good morning. Actually, this was pretty much expected. The high that can sit over us has been out west, and even with our plus-100 temperatures it hasn''t sat on top of us and crushed convection the past few days. Because of this, we've had a pretty nifty little north wind funneling down the last couple of days, which also provides a gateway to allow disturbances like this one to sweep on in through the open gate. Stuff like this is what makes this summer far less miserable than some others, I don't care what the temperatures have been reading. They're only part of the weather picture. And it looks like we're going to get some pretty good rain around here next week too.

August 22, 20205 yr Yes...well...that could have brought to my attention YESTERDAY! Wanted to sleep in this morning but had to run outside at 6:15am and move all kinds of shit into the garage that was left out from the schoolweek. But hey---the yard digs it. PhD---how long you think the rain will last today? And you think that Tuesday system will pan out on the backside of that tropical storm? Edited August 22, 20205 yr by Lobo

I don't give 2 shits about y'all turning on the sprinklers - it's all about what happens within a week of Dove season opening. Concentrate the water around the few ponds available... the birds are congregating... & BLAMMO! A good soaker shows up to spread the birds around because every 2" dip in the dirt becomes a huge puddle.
August 22, 20205 yr Looks like Lousy-Anna has some potential for jailhouse buttseks 2x in 2 days. Yay them?

Maybe they'll have more mercy on you then because of this.

September 2, 20205 yr up in Denison visiting my dad and amazing rains up here. +5 inches at their house. Sitting inside doing legal shit (FUCK CANCER) but it sure is nice to hear. heading back to the Triple 6 tomorrow and wondering how many low water crossings I am going to run into. Was planning on heading to the Lake Palestine area and getting a place to crash for a night. Might head down 281 instead. (FUCK IH35).

September 2, 20205 yr I35 between Waco and Dallas seems like a fun place to be right now. Based on the radar.
