Well this was a nice surprise. Sitting with about .70” so far, I’ll gladly take it.

[srainhoutx]

I've got .97 of an inch in the rain gage and with more thundershowers around, I may surpass an inch of rainfall for this event easily.

[Cromagnum]

Might have gotten dry slotted IMBY but this will be great bike riding weather.

Just had pea size hail at 518 and Bay Area in W League City.

Not sure how much rain we got last night here in Stafford, but I did hear some rumbles of thunder in the wee hours of the morning. Loving these temps!

[srainhoutx]

HGX has received several reports with two storm cells around Houston. One report if 1/2 inch hail in Sugarland. Watch the cell approaching NW Harris County now for some pea sized hail.

[TexasBreeze]

The rain is lingering longer than I expected and can also see the west TX dust all over the vehicles too.

When the heck is the temps going to stabilize and start climbing? These cold snaps are crappy.
