2022 Rain Thread

[Hate 20108]

It’s going to happen again in the same goddam day.

[Scheiss Meister 8407]

I didn't get measurable rain, but did get a light sprinkling.  We just got back home from picking up prescriptions, and a large, cold drop hit dead in the center of my head, followed by a six-inch sprinkle (drops six inches apart).  I guess that I should be frustrated that it wasn't more, but I have decided to be grateful for any good that comes my way, however little.  We're one day closer to the next frog strangling, fence lifting, bar ditch filling rain.

[TXLNGHRN10 341]

At least the hill country is getting some rain.
Weird this semi low semi boundary has been around for a few days and we aren’t getting more widespread rain

This stuff in NE Texas is moving to the SW. That seems like really weird movement. 

I'll step aside for the weather lords to explain.

Not a weather lord, just an interested bystander.  The flow around the high pressure dome to the west moves clockwise, drawing from the northeast to the southwest in this quadrant. 

Don't piss it off; I stand to get some of it, Lord willing and I hold my mouth right.

It's finally happening in Hewitt.  All praise Tlaloc

Patience man. Cavalry is riding up from the south to meet up with the northern storms around 4:00 this afternoon.

Tell me about it.  I live just south of the Highway 6 symbol northwest of Navasota.  Right on the edge.  Sigh.

I thought you worked on Austin water stuff?

No, I just comment on Austin water stuff.  I work on wastewater stuff somewhere within 50 miles of the location I gave.  As small as the water/wastewater community is, if I posted where I work I would be doxing myself.  Posting where I live was unwise enough.

Ha, yep, I know the area well, so better shut your trap before I come a knockin' asking about wastewater.

Yup - getting mighty pissed

It's never going to rain again.

[Anastasis 23469]

The forward looking radar projection for this evening is pretty hilarious.  ATX force field suppose to put in work.

45 seconds of light rain in The Woodlands! Are we done until September now?

[atomheartbevo 89659]

It dropped the temps in Austin to mid 90s.

[Deej 76768]

Inch and a half of rain at Inks Lake and the temp dropped to 78.

[bschoolprof 6252]

the forcefield indeed fucking annihilated the rain bands heading to Austin. Undefeated.   

[F250 28772]

I was driving on the highway 281 when the sky turned black and it poured down pretty hard for 20 minutes then turned into a light drizzle.

Temp dropped to 69 very briefly.

Yeah, I ended up getting almost a tenth of an inch. Woohoo!!

Lucky!  I didn't even get the scent of rain.  Well, that was because of the Covid.  My wife smelled rain, but we got none.  Folks a quarter mile away did, but not us.

[Biff Tannen 45681]

One dark cloud over north airport blvd right now. Blocking out the sun, so that’s a win. 

[Deej 76768]

Temp dropped noticeably in the last ten minutes in 78753.

[kibbles 70]

Water falling from sky in 78704. Is this a thing?

Well, that kinda sucked as far as rain production.   At least it stayed below 85 for the rest of the day.   

[Tailgate 3021]

78739 checking in with a nice five-minute pour down. Settling down now.

[USCATX 1078]

First big front missed wide left in 78738, then a little spot jumped up for a direct 5 minute downpour hit.  Beautiful.  

[Updawg 2266]

Got some in 78749. Was nice.

Got some of that. 

[jimmyjazz 45919]

My bad.  I heard thunder and went to sit on my front porch -- you know, because my wife just dropped $ on random outdoor upholstery -- and we got maybe a drop.  Could have been a passing 737 dropping its commode for all I know.  360/2222

[NorthLoop 14195]

Got nothing in NB again. Sat in the Chick Fil A drive thru watching a beautiful light show to the north. That was you assholes getting rained on. 

Earlier in the day I watched a black cloud with visible rain bands slide east and south if us.

At least you didn't get completely skunked. 

The bottom of the sky fell out right over my office off Washington starting at about 4:50. By 5:00 there were rivers running down the righthand lanes and you could barely see in front of you. By 5:15 or so, it was done and gone. One of the quickest, strongest storms I've seen in a long while. Dropped damn near an inch in 20 minutes.

[gsoda3 3257]

Kid's game got delayed for 45 minutes and ultimately cancelled for lightning but we didn't get a drop

[South Austin 52490]

Walked out of Thor at the Lakeline Alamo last night and if felt like Fall. My son and I watched some cool lightening from my front yard for a few minutes, but we got nothing and liked it.
