Is this a fool's errand? 3 hours ago, gurt said: Yeah I wouldn’t...money isn’t great unless you’re in actual developer territory, but that is a CS degree anyways I agree with gurt. I love doing GIS work but there just isn’t enough money to make me like it that much.
April 8, 20214 yr I love Austin in the spring. On campus and downtown today, and the hills are alive with the sight of sundresses and yoga pants. What we lack in a gorgeous wildflower bloom, is made up for in sublimely nice buttocks in all four directions. And as such, I stop and give thanks and ask Mother Nature...Why the fuck is Oak Pollen just now peaking simultaneously with unusually summer-like 95 degree temps, with 25mph wind gusts, and no rain on the forecast for a week? This is just fucking cruel, woman!

My trees have bounced back but there are some in my neighborhood that are struggling
April 9, 20214 yr I doubt it's going to rain tomorrow. One day over 100. Then the '80s are back on the weekend, and the 70s are back next week, rain increases. Waiting to observe the overshooting comments based on one day tomorrow.

April 9, 20214 yr Yep. It passed just east of us. Pretty nasty hail to our north, just a McBeth storm here. Edited April 9, 20214 yr by Scheiss Meister

April 9, 20214 yr I was standing in the garage watching the storm, as I am want to do, and my son (5) came out there stood beside me and said "daddy we were needing this rain". I love him so much

April 9, 20214 yr Saw this pic from Mooreville (East of Bruceville-Eddy in Falls County) Hail about 8 inches deep
April 12, 20214 yr Weather nerds. Talk to me about hail chances tonight particularly in NW Austin. Looks like the worst of this should stay west and northwest of Travis but it looks like we are going to get a piece broke off either way.
April 12, 20214 yr The NWS risks have been trending west with each revision. This morning I was worried, now, not so much.

April 14, 20214 yr Best chance Thursday morning around breakfast time. Around / beyond that, meh, but possible thru Fri night.
April 15, 20214 yr Later this afternoon/evening starting to look dicey. What's the word on hail, sir?

April 15, 20214 yr "10% or greater" probability. Well, that narrows it down.I don’t think the technology is yet available to be able to see if your house is going to get hail or not.
April 15, 20214 yr That little cell that was heading right for us just made a left turn and will miss most of Travis by the looks of it.
April 15, 20214 yr 1 hour ago, Anastasis said: @Hate @phdhorn Anything of note expected in another wave later tonight. I'm picking up a "new" used car this evening, so I presume there will be a 100% chance of hail as I drive home. Why do I need a new car, you may ask? Because the hail storm at the end of March did enough damage to my last one, that my insurance company totaled out my last car.

Mines in a NW austin shop right now and they don't necessarily have enough space for indoor storage of all the vehicles on premise.

April 15, 20214 yr Can anybody recommend a live weather radar website that doesn't suck shit? For some time now, the animated radar on KXAN's website, and other local TV channels' websites, all seem to use the same app or codec, which works terribly on my PC. They try to play back 6-8 hours of radar history, which is pointless--I only want to see the last hour or two. Starting 6 or 8 hours back means I have to wait forever to get to the current radar image. Trying to skip ahead using the slider bar doesn't do shit. Doesn't matter if I use Chrome or Firefox.
