We were fortunate and did receive some much needed rain without any major flooding. It looks like we might dry out for a bit before the next disturbance coming off of Cuba enters the Gulf. We can only hope this turns out to be just a “rain maker” and nothing too serious. I hope the folks dealing with Florence survive the storm and unprecedented flooding. They have a long way to go before they will be able to assess the total impact of the storm.

It has been a brutally hot summer with no end in sight. We are looking to the tropics for some relief but that can be a double edge sword. You pray for some rain but you get a hurricane instead. Hopefully September and October will be wet months leading us into winter.

The last couple of Artic cold fronts have weakened and did not made it all the way to the Rio Grande Valley. All of the storms the fronts are causing just north of us are drawing in warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico to fuel the violent weather. For us, that has meant that the wind has been howling for the last several days, up to 40-50 mph gusts are being recorded. I hope are neighbors to the north of us stay out of harm’s way as these late winter storms blow through.
