Clutter! Awesome! 

Severe TS Williamson, high winds and small hail.

And this is only the "calm before the storm" day?

Storm flipped it.

My office is a bit north of Pescado. I'm at Jim Hogg@Williams. Rain just finished and there is blue sky rapidly approaching behind it

 

Horizontal rain just came through downtown.  Looks to have calmed a bit.

Just tweaked a downspout to have the rain flow a bit better from the front of the house.  Tweaking complete 5 minute before the good times rolled in.  Meanwhile between Beaumont and Winnie, someone got a good 13" of rain this morning (!)

He had hail.  I've been on his roof recently (& have 4 other houses in the area).

You?

So lucky! Every like 6th or 7th house had damage. None here or would have definitely pm’d you. 

Can confirm that the storm over 78750 has hair on it and is pissed off.

Unless the adjuster was contract, I'd want a 2nd look.  In house?  Hmmm...  Especially if it's the quantity / volume you are saying the neighborhood has.

Some nice rainfall totals up in the Buchanan basin from the storm that just rolled through. Keep it coming.

I can always ask. Not my house. Staying here until I can afford to move. Divorce wrecked me financially and Covid hit right around the same time. I’ll ask but it ain’t my decision. 🤘🏼

*"in house" meaning a company employee.  Contract adjusters are commissioned on what they approve, so yeah... these adjusters DO want know where da gold at.

I just checked the LCRA hydromet page and the Colorado is flowing over 2K directly into Buchanan right now.

I was just there yesterday and the lake had already risen quite a bit from the rain two weeks ago.  I'm hoping this brings it up quite a bit more for the summer.

Don't hoard it all. Travis is 21 feet low right now as well.

In Fannett? I saw that - I've been watching KFDM's Facebook posts and it's nuts in SETX right now. A Lumberton ISD bus got stuck in floodwaters this morning (everyone is fine), and it looks like water is over the road in mid-county.

What’s the name for this type of cloud formation? Cool looking at any rate even if there isn’t a name.

Twister! That movie is the Bible for storm chasers! I kept typing in the wrong word! Thanks! 😁

Holy shit that is some serious precip.  Going to be a wild week

The Brazos is gonna be angry down river.  

Just think boobies.   The name mammatus is derived from the Latin mamma (meaning "udder" or "breast").

I had to go get my son from school for an orthodontist appointment. This is what I was driving in to.

The freeze broke my rain gauge so I have no idea how much rain we’ve gotten so far, but it’s been about an hour since that picture and we’ve had to have gotten a couple of inches of rain so far. It’s going to be an interesting week.

You should be driving South, not North! Ortho appointments are cheaper in Spring then The Woodlands 😉

My buddy in Nederland posted this morning they had already gotten 9" and it was still raining.

Even better:  the term was first coined in 1894 by an English clergyman with 8 kids.

I mean, I'm always thinking about boobies, but what does that have to do with tornadoes in Oklahoma?

Something something Texas titty twister?

Had about .5inch in Waco. Not complaining.  It seems like everything has petered out before it got here.
