My weather station has been showing low teens humidity since the storm. Yesterday was 91 according to my station, but might be a touch high. It's brutal. Even with that storm, have only had 0.5" this month. Edited March 27, 20223 yr by FirstTimeCaller
March 27, 20223 yr It was 93 in NW Austin in the late afternoon whilst I was spreading over 200 bags of mulch for my son's Scout troop. I guess it's time to fire up the Summer 2022 Pressure Cooker thread.

Hoo boy, get used to that dry ass air from the Mexican desert to our SW… It’s never gonna rain again! Tried to tell you guys. We are fucked this spring/summer/fall. Yesterday’s “overachieving” high temp is drought-feedback related. It’ll only get worse as SC Texas gets drier and drier over the next few months. The Hill Country tinderbox is already burning up and it’s not even April. Help us tropics you’re our only hope? (although it’d probably just go all Don 2011 and vaporize at landfall). Tuesday night’s rain looks minimal QPF-wise. Probably won’t offer much relief unfortunately. Edited March 28, 20223 yr by Loop 1604
March 28, 20223 yr 92 degrees with a 23 degree dew point felt awesome yesterday afternoon. Started dreaming again of moving to Arizona or El Paso....
March 29, 20223 yr Tonight overnight: - a little rain toward sunrise - little/no severe - clear by early morning - carry on

March 30, 20223 yr Weird. DFW in a slight risk zone. Seemed to take its time building up from the west, didn't look too bad around 11 or so, so went to bed. As anticipated, rain and strong winds woke me up a little around 3. At 5, it seemed to be quite light outside, as if it was 630. Got up, found out it was 5. And we're under a tornado watch. But the system seems past.

Didn't even move the truck into the garage. Few trash cans by the curb were blown over, that kind of stuff. Hoping kids soccer game tonight gets cancelled.

March 30, 20223 yr There is a tornado warning for The Woodlands right now. My wife is sheltered in place at work right now and my son’s campus is on lockdown. The winds are picking up substantially just now.

March 30, 20223 yr All is well. I don't think anything was ever confirmed to have touched down. I think the rotation was all radar indicated. We had some pretty good wind gusts and really heavy rain, but that was about it. The sun is already peaking out from behind the clouds. Thanks for the concern!

April 3, 20223 yr I see a 70% chance of rain for Austin coming up soon, but the NWS precipitation forecast maps look dire. Is this another nothingburger?
April 4, 20223 yr I think there's a chance we get nothing at all from this storm. The 70% chance probably means a quick 5 minute storm that does nothing for anyone.
April 4, 20223 yr This is mostly a north/NE Texas event. Maybe some will get lucky and squeeze a 1/4 inch out of it. High of 96 here in SA on Tuesday. Then the west winds pick up again.
April 4, 20223 yr What's the hashed portion mean?It means that area has a damn near 100% chance of whichever event is on that map.
April 5, 20223 yr So, shit keeps forming up west and moving northeast. Most things west of Tarrant are under severe thunderstorm watch. And now the metro is under a tornado watch even though nothing has moved in yet.
April 5, 20223 yr 2 hours ago, Hate said: It means that area has a damn near 100% chance of whichever event is on that map. So that's how they denote "signficant'? Why doesn't that region get into Moderate or High?

April 5, 20223 yr Had to get quite a few shingles replaced after the last storm. Time to see if they hold up
April 5, 20223 yr So that's how they denote "signficant'? Why doesn't that region get into Moderate or High?I don’t really know, but that’s a good question. And I was probably overstated the 100%, but the hatched area means that whatever category they are predicting is pretty likely to occur in that area.
