By late am TS settled down to SHRA/-SHRA lasting until after 1600. Back & front yards were swamped due to my neighbor's large pond uphill from here overflowing.

Waves of moderate to heavy rain, sometimes accompanied by gusty wind and thunder, came thru periodically most of the day yesterday as the strong low pressure center move over this area to the NE. Rain as high as 3.0"/hr rain rate made the yard look like rivers. Rain Rate diminished by mid afternoon. Most standing water in the yard has absorbed or drained away now. It's chilly with a northerly breeze this morning, but forecasters are saying the rest of the day should be pleasant after sunrise. I poured up the gauge after the last heavy spoke of the low pressure center on radar passed and had 1.29" This mornings' reading was an additional .40". It will be interesting to see what difference this makes in next week's Drought MOnitor. CURRENTOBS: Temp:44f, Wind Chill:31f; RH:82%; DP:39f; BP:29.83 rising; Wind:WNW 6mph; Sky:SCT250'. |

Flash Flood Watch is in effect. Gulf moisture streaming in and clashing with a cold front produced heavy TS which began training SW to NE yesterday evening. Storms are reforming to the southwest, and are forecast to continue. Lightening, wind, and heavy rain in excess if 3.0" hr rain rate, a few minutes after 2100. Heard rain pummeling the house a lot of the night. A low water crossing gobbled up a vehicle nearby, and lightening strikes caused structure fires in Tarrant and Denton counties.

Flash Flood Warning remains in place as more severe storms are forecast for this evening. Yesterday's storm was unnerving. Thunder continuous from the west as a rotating storm formed to the SW & moved N, parallel to I35 with this station in between. Storm sirens in N Ft Worth & Haslet were sounding frequently. A strong lightening strike to the SE withing a mile, I assess, was cloud to ground & produced quite a crack. Rain between 0.25"hr to 3.0"hr rain rate, & wind averaging 20+mph with continuous thunder raged for over half an hour. A reformation of rotation produced wind gust of 36mph picked up rain flowing across the yard & blew it parallel to the ground for about a minute. Needless to say, trees were gyrating wildly. Concerning, but the storm moved N spawning damaging winds & possible tornadoes which are yet to be confirmed by NWS. Dodged a bullet.

Yesterday was one of those days when you consider gathering the animals two by two, and pulling the ark out of storage. It thundered, blew, and rained like I haven't seen in decades. Significant Weather Report was entered. The bar ditch along the road was filled nearly to the top. The yard and pasture were flowing rivers of water. Pooling in low spots remain this morning. Another chance of storms are forecast Monday night into Tuesday, with a drying period thru the holiday weekend following. Any more rainfall is going to be runoff. The ground is supersaturated. CURRENTOBS: Temp 60f; RH:83%; DP:55f; BP:29.86 rising; Wind:S 3mph; Sky: CLR. |

Line of intense TS yesterday around 1530 left some local damage. I sat on the S covered porch and watched the storm come in, looking for rotation. All that was visible on the SW horizon was a dense rain curtain. Scud was hanging straight down and moving N in a line as it passed over. Wind gust at 26mph, Baro Pressure dropping steeply, close lightening strikes to the E, rain at >3.33"/hr during a short period. This station only had a couple of medium limbs down, but a neighborhood across I-35, about 3 miles E as the crow flies, had roof damage, fences and trees down. Significant Weather Report was entered.

Branches down. phone , internet down. ADDENDUM 6/20: Report originally by phone app. No Significant Weather Report. Saving phone battery. Damaging storm on Sunday the 16th significant for wind at 52mph for several minutes and 4.0+ "/hr Rain Rate. Frequent thunder but did not hear sirens during the storm. Almost all front and back yards were solid water during the period. This storm was termed a quasi-linear convective storm, aka: big bad squall line or bow echo. Scary enough to make me take shelter. EF0 tornado identified by NWS investigators located about 4 miles east of this station. This same area had damaging storm last weekend. |

June Total Precip: 4.96". For the fourth weekend in a row in June a storm crashed thru this area. Watched TS cells easing across the Red River from NE to SW all afternoon, wondering if they would come here. Faint thunder at 1859, followed at by closer thunder and a gust front at 20mph . Heavy rain and thunder followed. At 1912, a loud double crack of thunder occurred with a power outage immediately following. Oh No! Two weeks in a row. Haslet FD toned out shortly thereafter for a power pole on fire up in town. Cause and effect. Stuffiness and heat for 3hrs, 5 minutes, before power was restored at 2215. A small fan ran on my Halo Bolt for most of that time. All windows were opened, but not much breeze after the storm passed thru.

I watched storms build north of Oklahoma City in mid afternoon, and move very slowly south. Later in the day, the large storm shield intensified, and sped up it's southward march. NWS issued storm alerts frequently throughout the early evening. I forgot the barn was still open, and ran out to close up at 1800 as the nasty looking storm loomed. At 1815 winds gusted to 24mph and tree branches whipped wildly. The temp dropped from mid 90's to 71f. Frequent thunder with cloud to ground lightening , and rain pounded. The storm moved thru Fort Worth but nature apparently wasn't satiated. A thin line, S to N resembling a tail, formed behind it giving this station another round of wind and rain. Thunder continued until 2100. CURRENTOBS: Temp:75f; RH:83%; DP: 69f; BP: 30.03; Wind:NW 2mph; Sky: BKN270'.

Cold Front lurking to the NW, but it isn't expected to make it thru overnight. It may, however, produce an outflow boundary capable of kicking off a few showers tomorrow morning. A shot in the dark, for sure. CURRENTOBS: Temp:72F; RH:89%; DP:69F; BP:29.97 rising; Wind:SSE 3mph; Sky:CLR. |

Showers on radar almost to every direction, but nothing in the metroplex. Chances of anything holding together until it gets here is iffy. The Forecast continues hot and humid. CURRENTOBS: Temp:77f; RH:78%; DP:70f; BP:29.80; Wind:SSE 8mph; Sky:BKN085'. |

David Finfrock, Channel 5 Forecaster with 40 years experience, went out on a limb yesterday evening saying September should break records for high temperature and low rainfall at month's end. I think he's on a safe limb. A strong upper jet is blocking the advancement of any cool, moist conditions from the north until October. Good Grief!

Very light sprinkle with tiny drops, for about 20 minutes starting just before 1100 yesterday. Just enough to mess up the dust on my truck, but did not register in the gauge. Forecast continues unseasonably hot for at least another week. Normal high temp should be in the low 80's, but it has been running >10 degrees higher. CURRENTOBS: Temp:76f; RH:88%; DP:72f; BP:29.95; Wind:SE 9mph; Sky:FEW018', SCT250'. |
