Guess I've waited two months, I can wait another two hours.

But it's like being that kid with a parent who always runs late to pick them up at school... is it just running late, or is it not going to show up at all?

I just have to laugh.  My weather app started the day at 70% chance of rain.  Then bumped up to 90%, showing rain starting at 4 or so and running for hours.  Now....it's down to 50%, and shows all chances as sporadic.

Tackled for a loss. 3rd and long.

I just realized that this summer it has rained as many times as it has snowed at my house.

#2208

Finally getting some good rain in the San Gabriel area of Georgetown. Already more than we had all of June-mid August.

Can confirm Western 78628 coming down

Southwest 78628 here. It's pissing a bit, but it's dark and lots of lightening. Hopefully this is just the foreplay.

Ugh,  "chance of rain" apps.  My techgeek wife does it too and it drives me up the freakin' wall.  Those black clouds 15 miles to the north think it's 100%.
It's gonna rain hard within an hour on almost all, if not every single one of us  in ATX.  Stick that up the "rain chance" bot's ass.

Historic heat followed by historic flooding? 

Of course. 

There's a piece written by a federal gov't meteorologist back in the 20s or so with this line: "the meteorological history of Texas is one of extended droughts punctuated by periodic devastating floods."

In that respect, same as it ever was.

I don't even know where a bot's ass is.

But I'm willing to learn.

We should get used to it.

Pouring in north Austin.  Pouring in Georgetown. 
 

I put up a sun shade over the deck last weekend that may or may not be able to survive high winds, and am not there to take it down. So you are all welcome.

Supposed to be here (Austin around 3/4 but sure looks like that ain't going to be the case. It's still north of Dallas right now.

I don't think I am.

But as for the chance of rain bots, I don't have a problem with them per se.  What I do have a problem with is when they do shit like yours did... 90% to 30% to 50% to 70% to 20% within an hour.  Shit, you might as well just look out of the window.

Those sob's waffle and flip flop more than I do - and that's saying something!

Literal empty circle around my house on the radar. And then it seems like a clearing out toward Cedar Park that's headed toward me. You've got to be kidding.

Damn your water bill must be through the roof to keep it looking like that in this drought.

#2237

Doppler says I should be under some rain.  I can smell it in the air from my balcony.  Not a god damned drop here.  Come on, man.

$110 last month for about 3,000 sq.ft. of grass. Watering thoroughly once a week.

Ordinarily I wouldn’t be watering it so much, but it is really an F-you to my HOA that forced me to remove half the graveled xeriscaping that had been in my front yard for 7 years without a problem until some neighborhood noob filed a complaint against me.  (He wanted to do the same but was turned down by the HOA nazis, so they screwed me over to the tune of a $3,500 “relandscaping” bill).

#2247

Holy shit. Red blobs aiming directly my house for more than an hour and... 0.03"

Un-fucking-believable. Fuck this place. Literally under the trees and under cars is bone dry. So fucking pissed.

 

#2248

Oh, and in addition to Austin forcefield, there is some major exaggeration on radars. Yellow means it is actually raining. Anything less is just bullshit.

The event is not over, gentlemen. 

I've learned its like the OU game. If you don't jump in the lead early, then you're toast. And right now I'm down 21-0 in the first quarter.
