Storm dropped over an inch on us in NW Austin in about 30 minutes. Nice.

This is what it looks like on my phone radar app (Weather Underground):


Seems a little... off.

Either that or the force field is really strong but in a really specific area.

Mind the gap

Yeah.  I nailed your mom in her Schlitter this afternoon.  

[DonnyKerabatsos 86]

is the excessive rain this year being triggered from the ash rising to the atmosphere from the concentration camps on our border?  Like volcanoes creating storms when the erupt? 

[gsoda3 3236]

we didn't get a single drop in 78728 yesterday.

Fucking negged. Leave Cloak Room shit in the cloak room. None of us want it outside of that shithole.

[Neonmoon 38127]

Uh we got a bogey 28 miles to the North. Closing fast. Over 

[NorthLoop 14083]

Roger that's your bogey

[atomheartbevo 89407]

Rain is 12 minutes out, over.

[Modessit 5596]

It's going to be interesting to see how this is going to miss us.

[NorthLoop 14083]

Imagine Austin is VY, and that line of storms are KU linebackers. 

[jimmyjazz 45546]

My sister is driving in from St. Louis.  She's been dragging this rain with her for the last several hundred miles.  What a horrible drive.

[atomheartbevo 89407]

More cows and flat rocks.

And artillery practice at Mabry.

Damn, we are getting some decent thunder and lightning.

Eh, she barely noticed.  I'm pretty pleased with it, though.

Is the cow and flat rock thing supposedly still funny?  

It’s posted every.single.time it rains.

It will henceforth be known as "Chet Steadman's mom pissing on a flat rock". Let it be known.

And if somebody accidentally substitutes “cock” for “rock”, that’s okay.  

[MissingInAction 24810]

Seconded 

[atomheartbevo 89407]

Lightning show in the Shoal Creek/35th area.

[TexArcher 37508]

Ze Germans are bombing 78759.

[atomheartbevo 89407]

Gonna be impressed if we don't lose power.   This little lightning show keeps ramping up.

[bschoolprof 6232]

my lawn has been quite gruntled this summer

[Assman 1830]

Turned on my sprinklers today for the first time this year.  Never thought I'd be trouble shooting sprinkler heads in July.

Lots of Chet's mom squirting on a flat rock today

Not for Austin proper but for the area.

Thanks for the heads-up, looks like this will likely hit me in the CP and I had no idea any rain was expected at all today.  Last time I checked a couple days ago, seemed like it was expected to be sunny, hot, and dry all week long.  

 

 

[Vito Andolini 9099]

Ugh, I’m in Belton near the lake and the damn thing has been stalled about a mile west of me for the last several minutes. C’mon, daddy needs a new pair of shoes (that a lighter water bill may provide).

(Ha, I knew my Surly reverse jinx would work! Pour baby, pour!)

If this gets to north Austin you can thank me for washing my car on Friday, when there was supposed to be a zero chance of rain for the next week.

It's here.  Lots of lightning and thunder, and fairly heavy rainfall for the past 10 minutes.  Sure hope it lasts a while.  Even if not, it's a welcome break from the heat of course.

 

[Updawg 2261]

I watered the grass this morning in sw Austin. Hopefully that will get us some rain. Doubt it though

[TexArcher 37508]

My dog is in full "we're all gonna die" mode in 78759.

Thought the thunder was almost done, but negative.

Going on 30 min of solid to CS mom on a flat cock. Now power out for the last 10. Fun times indeed.

[Modessit 5596]

It filled in pretty good over the past 30 minutes.

[3adays 454]

NIce call by the weatherman Albert Ramon. Predicated little or no rain for 7 days yesterday and had the nerve to call this a “garden variety” shower. Raining hard in the 78757

Also in 78759. Looks like we got hit dead-on by this storm. 

[Izhmash 558]

78727 checking in.  Little man grabbed his lantern, to protect the fam.  Good man!

We were in the middle of it.  Mere milliseconds between lightning / thunder.  

[APMP 685]

Arboretum Target lost power twice, and building felt like it was shaking for a bit. This was about 25-30 mins ago.

[Neonmoon 38127]

Cooled down to 75 now. Doesn’t suck
