Don't know if this will level off before it gets here but the Omaha area is expecting another round of heavy Missouri River flooding after rains upstream Link

Snazzy fall tie you have on, Chris! It’s encouraging the season to start! Like the snowplows and fall coffee!

Looks like a soaking rain Saturday evening into Sunday with good jet dynamics setting up some broad scale lift in addition to the input from the tropical system coming out of the gulf and the approaching slow moving cold front.

Don't know about anyone else but I'm getting to the point where I could use a little rain.

It's definitely become a bit "crispy" the past week with little to no rainfall...but this weather is great for the grain farmers with the crop running weeks behind.

All the rain that's been falling around the metro has been north of us. Grass is dormant. I mowed some of the crabgrass and dust last weekend.

It looks like we may have to get used to it for the next couple weeks through muted compared to now, thanks to a lower sun angle and less hours of daylight! I'm waiting less patiently now for that trough out west to slide east into our neck of the woods.

Looks like some good rain moving in for the weekend. Probably make things more humid even though temps will be down.

I'm waiting less patiently now for that trough out west to slide east into our neck of the woods. Pretty good pattern reversal this time next week with the deep trof across the W Coast being replaced with broad ridging and energy coming across the top. The blocking across the N Atlantic also shows signs of retrograding further west towards Greenland which should force cooler air out of Canada into the lower 48. So I think this is the last stretch of truly hot weather...we'll have some warm days for sure which is typical for early fall but nothing like we've seen so far this month.

I've heard reports of well over 2 feet of rain near Beaumont, TX...those areas are again having to go through what they went through in Harvey. And it's not done yet.

Meanwhile a little west of Austin (about 150 miles west of Houston) my sister in law reports major drought problems and temps in the shade at 100+ yesterday. They had hoped Imelda would swing a little further west, but no luck

I was honestly thinking there was no way the NAM was right about 30" of rainfall-- typically has a wet bias IIRC... Wow.

Well. It is official. We are no longer owned by Tribune. Welcome NEXSTAR as our new ownership. Ownership changes are always interesting.

The training thunderstorms have made me happy, but not the rivers or creeks. This will only add to the problems on the Missouri.

Here's to hoping the river is not an issue when I have to drive back up there in early October. They already have detours around I29 in Iowa, and the NWS has mentioned that the long range outlook has heavy rain to our north. I know the Army Corp has slowed the release from Gavins Point Dam for a few days, but they have increased it again. The news up here said flooding could be bad again next year since there is nowhere for the current water to go right now.

The highest Imelda rainfall total so far is 43.15" near Beaumont, TX.
That's in the vicinity where Harvey dumped over 60" of rain just 2 years ago.
