If I recall correctly, "Morning Mist and Evening Storms" was a quite popular softcore porn series on Skinemax back in the day....

I've got a 4ish Tee time at Lions today. Looks like a perfect window to sneak in a round between the morning mist and the evening storms.

I'm 3 at Shawdow glen. Hoping this holds, but everyone is welcome when it gets rained promptly after i show up.

Now did you watch this series through blurred/scrambled screen or through an actual standard definition subscription?

Shit no.  Hell no.  

[TwiceHorn 31,438]

Man, nothing much here in Central/Nawf Dallas, but they had one of those "radar indicated" or other fictitious tornado warnings with the shizz going down a mile or two away.  That was a bit scary.

[TwiceHorn 31,438]

Just saw some tennis ball sized hail from Tarrant County on the pitcher box.

The forecasts from all the different stations are all over the place, and the 5-7 day precip has us right on the edge (as fucking usual). 

My prediction is that this line comes through Austin, we get lots of thunder, 0.1" of rain and call it a day.

Your attempt at a reverse jinx looks like it will fail

[UTexasFight 9,429]

What a lightning show 

[Radical Larry 28,558]

No kidding. It’s been a continuous rumble of thunder for about ten minutes

[4th_and_18 687]

What a lightning show 

Don’t know if I’ve ever seen this for this duration. Like ball lightning slowly rolling across the sky.

That was wild. Rain just started hardcore in 78751

[Beau Vine 54,207]

Craziest lightning I've ever seen to the north.

[ftf82 485]

Furious downpour for all of about 3 minutes in West Lake. Over now.

[atomheartbevo 89,628]

Lightning show and rain here in Austin.

Friends that live near Tyler are in the bathroom.

 

[HenryJames 66,038]

Tiny hail in 78722.

it’s possible this is the first phase of the earth preparing for the end of times now that the Longhorns have won and the Aggies about to tip-off.

[Orange&White 5,522]

I saw something similar to this a few years ago in Hilton Head. It was eerie looking out at the water and watching the black waves turn blue when the lightning illuminated them.

[mchookem 16,321]

i'm in NE Texas now and it's been rolling in for about an hour and i am loving the T&L show...i haven't experienced a thunderstorm in close to a year!

[boknowstecmo 216]

Hey can some weather nerd tell me if this was the big round that's supposed to hit around 11 or midnight? Did the front roll through faster than expected?

I just happened to be on the site in another screen when I read your post, so threw the screen grab up for you.  I'm not sure what conclusions can be drawn.

[Willfully Horn 8,002]

Some folks, here in Austin, miss Fall foliage. Connecticutters, et al. I miss the lightning displays of North Texas.

Fucking front road in on a chariot.  Wind is intense as as hell still 4 hours after the fact.  

[Hate 20,106]

I drove through all of that bullshit today coming home from Colorado. The blowing wind and snow in Amarillo sucked, but the torrential rains on 45 during the home stretch sucked more.

[Cajun 11,705]

Nature and Yacht Rock.  It just works!

 

[Orange&White 5,522]

Well that was a shit ton of build up for me to get .03" of rain in the past 24 hours. (78750 on 360)

[Cajun 11,705]

@Orange&White

Same here down at Canyon Lake.
