Looks like rain.......FINALLY!!

[lebomb]

I hope it doesnt burn up before it reaches San Antone. :depressed

[ashbeeigh]

the last time I said this it didn't rain! Don't jinx it!

[angel_luv]

All it takes for it to rain is for me to get my hair styled at the salon. If you all want to chip in and send me there, I will go. :D

[Spursmania]

Rain here in SA? Seriously? Please tell me it's more than a "slight chance of rain." Our house never gets rain in SA:depressed

[JudynTX]

I'll believe it when I see it.

[CosmicCowboy]

Dang...right now it looks like it can't miss.

[lebomb]

DAMN!! c'mon ...........looks like its trying to split. Please NO!!!

[Das Texan]

you mean like the last 2 or 3 times it looked like rain only to die.


*yawn*

[desflood]

It'll rain. I just watered all my trees.

[mrsmaalox]

I should run out and have my car washed. That'll seal the deal.

[Strike]

That only creates a target for birds. Well, for my car, anyway.

[MannyIsGod]

Its going to rain, but the real big stuff is going to miss us to the north. Its going over the meat of the recharge zone though.

[lebomb]

No kidding.............looks like its trying to burn up in the atmosphere before it hits the ground now. Uhhhhhh!!!

[Spursmania]

Well there's these uugly vultures about 7 of them that perch on our rooftop right before it rains. It's windy here now, and the vultures are around. Maybe there's hope, please God.

[exstatic]

DAMN!! c'mon ...........looks like its trying to split. Please NO!!!

Yup. It looks to crack against the San Antonio Weather Dome. It looked like a solid wall until it got about a half a county away, and it looks like it's fracturing. I hope I'm wrong.

At least the overcast is keeping the temperature down again like yesterday.

[angel_luv]

It is getting dark over here at Rolling Oaks mall. I expect to hear rain on the roof soon.

[lebomb]

Its splitting on the NW side.........I bet we dont see a drop. :bang

[desflood]

C'mon you bastard...

[JoeChalupa]

I just walked outside and it is real dark to the west of us here in Converse.

[JudynTX]

East of the Alamodome, it's dark. It better rain, damn it!

[angel_luv]

I don't have an umbrella or a hoodie on me to keep dry with. My guess is it starts pouring in about 15 minutes, just as I am leaving the building for work.

[pkbpkb81]

it is drizzling by sea world

[phyzik]

total jinx thread, I did my part though and washed my car today.

[CubanMustGo]

Well, I came down to SA last night so the house in Round Rock got a good soaking today. Maybe you should pay me to head back to Austin so it'll rain here today. :lol

[MannyIsGod]

Its really not that bad - there's a solid wall of light rain behind these cells and the SW complex is building to the NNE. Plus theres a small cell blowing up right over my house and making it pour right now. :)

[Spursmania]

Nope-off 1604 blanco and Huebner, just a few drops, nothing to write home about. Maybe there's still hope. It is dark outside.

[lebomb]

Time for me to hit the reverse jinxage..............Its not going to rain at all, I guarantee it and book it!!!

[JudynTX]

Went outside to feel the winds.....have a feeling it won't rain a drop here. FML

[CosmicCowboy]

LOL

Looking at the radar it's like there is a force field around San Antonio...It literally split and went on both sides of us when it hit the county line.

[lebomb]

LOL

I know WTF??? Is there a Independence day space ship hovering over the city?

[bus driver]

Rain!!! :rollin :rollin :rollin

[MannyIsGod]

Just bad timing. They ended up losing a lot of their inflow about 40 miles out. Storms only live so long when there's not much energy in the atmosphere. Be glad we got plenty of rain on the recharge zone and temps were down. Also, there is that area of rain heading in as well.

[CosmicCowboy]

Well, the good news is that the ranchito is in the northwest tip of Atascosa county and it looks like it is about to get pounded...

[exstatic]

LOL

It's done that 4-5 times on well developed lines of solid radar yellow this summer.

[Shhh. Don't tell the weather gods, but there's another small line developing quickly behind it. Keep your fingers crossed people]

[SpursWoman]

I keep getting excited when I hear the rumbling overhead ... but then remember I work right behind the freaking airport. :depressed


:lol

[lebomb]

From the radar, it appears I got two things at my house........JACK SHIT! :depressed

[MannyIsGod]

Well, the good news is that the ranchito is in the northwest tip of Atascosa county and it looks like it is about to get pounded...

Yeah - and actually those areas need the rain way more than SA proper does. We here need more rain over the recharge zone but the ranchers who can't feed their cows are the ones who really need the rain.

[exstatic]

Man...that northern piece that split off and went almost due east couldn't have missed me by more than a mile. Second string looks to be breaking up, too. Move along. Nothing to see here.

[JudynTX]

Yea, my father-in-law needs the rain for the cows. :(

:lol

lol so do i. right off nakoma. a thunderstorm isn't such a good thing for us :downspin:

[lebomb]

Hmmmmmmmmmm..............now it looks like that upper most part of the rain is kinda moving closer..........still may get some rain at my house................1604 and Bandera area.

[phyzik]

lol, looking at the radar, it looks like its starting to reform right on the other side of San Antonio. What a crock of shit!

[JoeChalupa]

We got some rain here enough to wet my car but that is about it but still looks dark so I'm hopeful.

[lebomb]

Okay, now the rain is moving in..............thank GOD!!!!

[lebomb]

The reverse Jinx works again!!!

[mrsmaalox]

It remains dark and breezy here in Stone Oak. About a dozen small raindrops :rolleyes

[EricB]

haha, well, we do live in a desert people gotta remember that :)

[MannyIsGod]

haha, well, we do live in a desert people gotta remember that :)


No we don't.

[Shelly]

haha, well, we do live in a desert people gotta remember that :)

I used live in Tucson...and San Antonio, you are no Tucson.

It's raining again on my side of town along with thunder and lightning. And my dog's tail is down, so that's a good sign!

poor puppy...

[SpursWoman]

I don't know if it will rain on my poor, dead grass or not (Live Oak) ... but it sure is nice and cool outside for a very welcome relief. :)

[desflood]

Very light but steady at Ingram Park Mall. Occasional thunder.

[Shelly]

Well, that was short lived.

Mother Nature is a tease!

[mrsmaalox]

haha, well, we do live in a desert people gotta remember that :)

Nope, no desert around these parts, we're too far east.

[Shelly]

Nope, no desert around these parts, we're too far east.

Maybe Tpark thought the occasional prickly pear cactus you see around town made SA a desert :lol

[Spursmania]

I'm near the stoneoak area as well. It's been raining at my house. :toast
How about yours? Any luck?

[desflood]

It went on for about an hour here. It was light, no drought-buster, but very much appreciated.

[blizz]

It rained here

[Spursmania]

:toast

[JudynTX]

I don't know if it will rain on my poor, dead grass or not (Live Oak) ... but it sure is nice and cool outside for a very welcome relief. :)

Yea, it felt like Fall for about a 1/2 a second. :lol


Well, that was short lived.

Mother Nature is a tease!

She sure is.
