1.07 but .98 was from the storms last night
Hate to say you could see this coming. The last three major systems have all died before getting here. I can't wait to see the look of bewilder on Glen Burns face this afternoon. This is definitely the beginning of what I hope is not a major drought.
I told my wife last night I had a feeling this would be a big fail. This is how droughts start.

MHX hinting at the low retrograding back inland over the SE and taking us from to little to too much rain....
"Thursday through Saturday...The low will slide southward off
the Southeast coast Thursday, then potentially retrograde back
over land by Friday and Saturday, finally allowing local winds
and swells to subside. This pattern brings the potential for a
conveyor belt of deep layer moisture advection to set up over
ENC late week into next weekend, which could be beneficial for
improving the ongoing drought, but will also have to be
monitored for potential flooding threats. Temps return near to
above normal late week."

Well this should be a nice preview of being in Galveston next week ?
After a brief reprieve late next weekend / early the following week, 12z GFS brings the heat right back in until the end of this run, woth another "cool down."
Still not showing a ton of rain opportunities either...

Today's looking like it might be a bust temp-wise. DFW's only at 79*F as of 1pm.
We've been socked in stratus much of the morning. It tried to scatter out between 11am and 12pm, but has filled back in.

Stratus is now finally mixing out. DFW was st 87*F as of 3pm.
The real story seems to be the dewpoints though. Widespread low/mid-70s.
