IN BRIEF:
 
*Today's post rants a little bit about August weather in Houston, and proceeds to talk about a weak (emphasis on weak, y'all) front moving into the region.
*This front is mostly just going to drive increased rain chances on Thursday and Friday as we stay uncomfortably in the 90s, temperature-wise.
 
TUESDAY -
 
*The pattern today should be a little bit different, with shower and thunderstorm developing a little bit earlier in the day.
*It will be driven more by a weak disturbance moving through than the sea breeze, and accordingly showers will be most likely from mid-morning through the early afternoon hours.
*Storms have already initiated north of the area, in Conroe, and I expect these to drop down into the city and coastal areas over the next few hours.
*Highs will generally be in the mid to upper 90s for much of the region, especially with the likelihood of clearing skies this afternoon.
*Lows tonight will only drop to about 80 degrees.

AUGUST RANT -
 
There is never any good weather in August in Houston.
 
As I've written before, it's either blazing hot with a burgeoning drought, or some tropical system is bearing down on the region. This month has been, shall we say, not terrible as daytime temperatures have been a little more reasonable and there has been some on-and-off again rain showers to help with our soils. (Although yes, angry person on Facebook, not everyone has gotten rainfall every day lol).
 
As expected, some scattered thunderstorms developed on Monday afternoon and evening, and indeed we anticipated that some of these would bring (briefly) heavy rainfall and strong winds. However I did not expect serious hail, but this being August of course that's what happened. In areas such as Champion Forest and Jersey Village there was half-dollar and golf ball-sized hail reported.
 
We cannot rule this happening again, elsewhere, for the rest of the week.
 
The point I'm trying to make is that there really is no helping August weather in Houston. The only thing one can do is survive and advance.
 
The good news is that we're doing that. Today is August 19, and there are just 12 days and 20 hours until September 1.
