This Conroe FB group I look at sometimes is quite entertaining today. People are so stupid.

I just got out of a meeting and the meeting host wanted to make sure we all knew that a hurricane was hitting the Houston area.

Yeah, maybe Baytown or Mont Belvu which isn't Houston...

I'm all for a little rain, but Houston inner loop and the surrounding areas aren't getting feet of rain, much less multiple inches.

Updated flash flood potential map and rainfall forecast





quote:

Tropical Storm Edouard is expected to produce rainfall totals of 3 to 6 inches with maximum totals up to 9 inches for parts of the Upper Texas Coast inland through east-central Texas, with potential for 2 to 4 inches in far southwest Louisiana. This rainfall is likely to produce flash flooding, especially in low-lying and urban areas. River flooding may also be possible.

In the early 79's any high school male with a surfboard was skipping school to get to Holly Beach and parked on the Hwy to wade 2 miles to get to the surf

44 mph gusting to 55 at Sabine Pass. Strongest winds are just offshore. Next several minutes winds should pick up a bit from that.

Update: 53 gusting to 62 at 1:24 PM CDT

Where do you use to find the stations? My handy-dandy map that was integrated on the wX app no longer works. I use tbe NOAA site, but hate it.

I'm using the NOAA TidesandCurrents page. 6 minute updates but delayed a few minutes from that.

Houston and surrounding suburbs will be lucky to get an inch.

Thanks.

I use this, but it is so clunky. They make nothing easy to find.

weather.gov
The direct link in the wX app no longer works to take you to the map version. It was the most convenient, by far, that I have ever found.
