POURED on campus. Didn't rain a drop in South CS that I can tell. And it was a good downpour for at least 30 minutes.
We got the same in central Bryan. Enough that I made the kids go play in it because I needed to settle them down
Looking ahead it seems like the rain is done for a while. Pretty soon we will be back to using our own water for the lawns and pools. I know some of y'all got a little tired of it, but I'll always argue rain is better than no rain.
Temps have been stupid mild this summer, too. I'll take that for as long it lasts.

It was nice while it lasted. Nice to have a productive garden for longer than usual.
Forgot to update. Our last downpour brought 2.25" at our house. I'm thrilled for rain free weather. Hopefully it dries out enough that I can mow down my hayfield of a yard before it rains again.

What about that tropical disturbance in the gulf? we're not getting anything from that?

I think it's gonna land too far east.

yeah looks like we might just get a couple stray showers
I hate to jinx it but the temps have been as good as I can remember. Did we crack 100 last summer?
Yes, several days last summer. Starting in Mid June. This summer has been a nice change.
Still can't complain about the heat. It's been pretty mild comparatively. Now we have a chance of rain this afternoon. Anyone else's weather apps indicating that?
ETA - removed the ginormous image. It was paying 99% chance. As expected, this has dwindled down quite a bit.
Apologies and carry on.

Can see storms moving north splitting us to the east and west. Close enough to hear thunder… would not have minded a quick soaking.
The dome reigns supreme
Just got my BTU bill and for the first time I think in forever the water bill was lower than last month.
Glad for that time the Dome fell asleep on the job.

With the caveat that I'm grateful for what we've had, it looks like the much vaunted rain chances for today through Sunday are already decreasing in probability. Sigh.

I want home this evening it based on the puddles, we got a bit of a deluge at Munson and Francis.

Oh goody.
That will set the Lincoln project back another year.
Dome doing dome things
Yep
Rain coming down hard at Towerpoint currently.
Pouring in Castlegate.
Tempted fate by taking the windshieldless ranger down to the Airbnb on the other side of our property. I thought I could beat it or that it would miss us entirely.
So glad I was wrong. Couldn't see trying to drive back against that deluge. But it sure felt good.

Lightning alert just sounded on campus

I'm literally 1 mile north and received 36 seconds of sporadic fat raindrops and that's been it.
At least S College Station is getting some. The breeze is nice.
Just got over an 1 1/4" close to Millican Reserve.
Not even sprinkles.
not over here either
We got a good hard rain here by the CS Lowe's.
I was driving home from Washington between 2 and 3, and it was so heavy on Hwy 6 that visibility was less than 20 yards. There was a wreck (no surprise) that snarled traffic for 30 minutes.
SW Valley got domed.
No rain here!!!
Looks like we are going to get slapped here shortly. It's marching south quick!
