    Hell of a run for natty the past 2 weeks. Opened 2 Fridays ago at $2.63, currently $3.28. 24.5% gain. 16% just this week.

    Wait, good news is good news??!?!? Markets initially freaked at the jobs report b/c of course bond traders hated it. Quick U-turn this morning after the initial selloff. Big headline job number, but wage growth was basically back to historic average of 0.2% MOM, which is nothing that SHOULD cause Fed to overreact.

    Dad informed us earlier this week that he finished the stand. Brother and I heading out to the lease tomorrow afternoon to set up a new feeder to replace one of the busted ones. Dad is meeting us out there with the new stand at sunup on Sunday. Just gotta unload it and attach the roof. Hot damn, the lease is now gonna have at least 1 fully-functioning stand and feeder combo ready to go in time for the season. And hopefully it will have been feeding for long enough to get some regular diners. itshappening.gif

    Almost time. 68 in H Town when I went to the gym this morning, but lots of moisture still in the air and it has warmed up quickly as the morning progresses. Gonna be warm and muggy until the drier air finally arrives late tonight. Heading up to my deer lease up near Rayburn tomorrow to do some work setting up a new stand and feeder. Gonna be in the high 40's when I wake up out there on Sunday morning. That's a temperature I haven't experienced in probably 7 months. Can't wait. Looks like we'll get just maybe 3-4 days of cool weather out of this first front before high 80's and humidity return around the middle of next week. On the bright side, looks like a second, longer-lasting front is expected to roll in next weekend. Lot of really nice days on the forecast for 10/14-20.

    No. Still gonna be highs in 70's, lows in 50's Saturday and Sunday. Humidity will be way lower starting tomorrow evening. Just not gonna be very long-lasting, as is pretty common with these early Fall fronts. Texas is catching the western edge of it. Gonna be colder and stick around longer east of the Mississippi.

    Cool front arrival, visualized:

    Make that $11 now, back down to $82.50.

    Typically fall with the switch to winter blend and less demand after summer, but not that drastically or quick.

    RBOB gasoline futures have crashed about $0.60 since Labor Day. Pump prices will start trending down over the next 2 weeks. Prices starting with a 2 should be fairly easy to find in Texas by late October.

    Final band of storms making it's way out to sea over the next few hours, heralding the coming of the front over the next 24 hours. It's almost here fellas. DFW will get the first lick, as drier, cooler air should start filtering in around midnight tonight. Y'all will wake up to a gorgeous Fall morning tomorrow in the mid-60's. Austin looks to spend most of tomorrow in the mid-80's, but should definitely start feeling a lot more comfortable after lunchtime with dewpoints dropping. Temp finally dips below 70 at roughly midnight Friday and should keep dropping until close to 60 around sunrise on Saturday. Houston naturally has the longest wait. Once these rains finally pass, will be mid-70's to low 80's and muggy until we finally drop below 70 around 4:00 am Saturday and then wake up to a windy Saturday morning in the high 60's as the front finally arrives and starts drying things out.

    Been raining pretty steady for about 5 hours in my neck of Houston and looks like it should keep going until about 3:00 this afternoon before finally drying up over the next few days. Nearest rain gauge to my house indicates we've received about 4.5' total in the past -50 hours. That's more rain than we got the entire stretch from mid-July to October 1st. Northern burbs have been getting deluged. Some areas near Conroe and Woodlands got upwards of 6' this morning.

    You folks heading to TX/OU are in for a treat. Latest GFS run about an hour ago has Saturday in Dallas at 73/52 and sunny.

    Sharp uptick in interest rates seems to have taken the wind out of the recent upswing for WTI. Down $7 in the past 5 trading days, back to $86. On the flipside, natty has a 3 handle for the first time since January.
  16. Storm the Field
    Not stupid enough to complain about finally getting some steady rain in Houston, but Jesus Christ is it swampy today. Currently 83 with heat index of 95. You can scoop the air outside with a spoon. ~60 more hours of soupy conditions and then we finally get a taste of Autumn.

    Shitty CR angle to Ukraine funding resulting from McCarthy getting the boot yesterday.

    Houston area getting a steady soaking this morning. Nothing heavy yet, but a consistent light rain since before sunup. Looks like some stronger stuff down in Brazoria/Fort Bend that may or may not make it to the city center later. Unrelated to the front making its way down south. Little disturbance that originated out in the Gulf. If you're anywhere inside a triangle drawn from Matagorda to Hunstville to Beaumont, you're likely to get at least some rain today.
  19. Storm the Field
    Predicted low for Houston on Sunday now down to 55. I know that's in the wee hours of the morning, but wowza, wasn't expecting to actually drop below 60.
  20. Storm the Field
    La Mex should be open at Stomping Grounds within the next 2 weeks, per a post yesterday on their IG page. Perfect timing with the weather finally cooling down in the near future. Looking forward to some hangover brunches with a michelada outdoors.

    Sometime a little after 6:00 this evening quite possibly will be the last time the temperature outside starts with a 9 at any point in the next 2 weeks in Houston. Rain clouds expected to start rolling in around lunchtime tomorrow. Doesn't look like we'll see the sun again until the end of the weekend. DFW and Austin look to get 1 extra day of hot, muggy Summer weather tomorrow, but as a trade-off for us getting an extra day of rain, y'all get significantly more of a cooldown. Just looked at latest forecast and seeing 69/56 on Saturday in Austin, 73/55 in Dallas. That's stronger than I was expecting. Houston going to be 78/63. Can't wait for the usual knee-jerk reactions that always happen when a front is on its way but hasn't made it far enough south yet to be noticed. I'll be kind of upset if somebody isn't posting tomorrow morning that "it still feels like August outside, all that cold front talk was bullshit!"

    You just proved my point. Yankees fans expect to routinely sign multiple franchise players that cost several hundred million dollars a piece. If someone else decides to give half a billion to one of those guys, Yankee Nation will excoriate the front office for not topping it.
  23. Storm the Field
    The problem is the NYY fanbase will never accept that. If there's a player available, they want him, regardless of the cost. If not, they'll say Hal and Cashman are cheap and not doing thing the way George used to.

    I know I should let this go, but this kills me. Earlier today, Rags thread was calling us "Houston Aggy". You know when this board thinks of Aggies, it definitely thinks of routine dominance and multiple recent national championships. Astros just won the division for the 6th time in 7 years. The Rangers have 0 in that span. Astros won the AL 4 times in that span. Rangers 0. Astros won the WS twice in that span. Rangers 0 (ever). Astros have utterly dominated the head to head series during that span (79-34 since '17). We just had our shittiest season in years. The Rangers had their best and shit the bed on the final weekend. We won the division, again. So, I ask, if you were looking at this shit on paper, which team would you think is "little brother"?
  25. Storm the Field
    Not that you'll have an actual answer, but, even if I stipulate that we cheated in '17, how exactly were we cheating in '22? I've seen all this shit lately from Rags trolls about our "illegitimate ring." Emphasis mine due to the fact they seem to go out of their way to not make it plural. In the alternate universe these goobers live in, we cheated our way to a title in 2017 and haven't done shit since. I know 2022 was a season that most fans of the team from South Oklahoma chose to flush down the toilet, but here's a refresher: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_World_Series
