This isn't going to do anything in Houston but rain a little bit. Typical Houston panic for every weather event.

My daycare just called and said they're closed today. I'm looking at bright blue sunny skies.

The radar shows a lot of yellow in the gulf coming our way. The weatherman got the timing wrong but still looks like a lot of rain.

nah, they just tweaked the gain on the color bar to make things look worse than they are.

Beltway on the north side looked like the week of Christmas. Zero traffic

Yeah...a ton of rain being dumped on this already saturated city is no big deal. Just ask Meyerland.

Honestly I'm more worried for tomorrow morning and afternoon when this thing is in North/East TX.

If the timing is just right we could be getting the last couple rain bands at the same time we're getting upstream runoff.

Already have people calling in because of weather. People that don't have ability to work from home and live a few miles from office. Some times it feels like I'm running a daycare.

Dr. Niel Frank is looking rough, and then there is Chita.

I don't exactly how much rain we'll get, but I know you can't draw any conclusions for about 24 hours from this am.

The storm slows, grows dramatically overnight, and turns South leaving us in the wake of the outer bands still growing in the Gulf, which you can clearly see in radar rotating towards us:



TexAgs be like, pfft, false alarm.

Yes it will rain and yes, there is a good chance for flooding but my lord, the news is acting like we have a cat 5 storm heading our way. In the grand scheme of things this isn't that bad. If not for all the rain we had a few weeks ago no one would even give this storm a second thought.

It's been forecasted by almost everyone to occur over the next 24 - 48 hours. I'm not a science guy...but I don't think just because it hasn't rained yet wherever you are means that it's not going to rain quite a bit throughout the area.

But for a more particular answer to your question, it has been raining pretty hard on and off for the last 2 hours at my home and office in the Heights and White Oak Bayou was pretty high 2 hours ago.

Welllll....yeah. But we did have it.

Hey the reporter-geeks/networks love this ***** like Ketch likes clicks. It's true they almost always WAY overreact. Ratings, baby, then self-congratulatory BS ads for weeks. It's ridiculous.

I ignore and/or laugh at them.

It is possible to follow the storm and take it seriously without being lumped in with....them.

Hell, I wouldn't be TOO cocky in Dallas and maybe Austin, per NWS.

It may or may not happen but it is pretty short sighted to act like it is not a very real possibility.

She spent a little extra time in hair and make-up this morning.

And I am surprised Direct TV still has a signal in this weather.

Per NWS, tomorrow, maybe noon. Then it has potential for you to laugh at it further inland.
But.....you should just keep the current laughter going, no?
Carry on!
