Yesterday: I've had it with hearing the same story over and over again—another 100-year-plus rainfall event, another tragic result from people occupying the floodplain without an adequate warning system. More pain. More loss. https://www.texasobserver.org/flooding-houston-hill-country-planning/

The Gulf tropical disturbance will come ashore in Texas later today, unlikely to develop at all, but bringing some locally heavy downpours at times to Houston and Lake Charles. A tropical wave next week in the Atlantic may (or may not) develop. And today’s flooding risk is highest near and southwest of Kansas City.

No development is expected from the Gulf tropical disturbance, and while heavy rain is possible on the Gulf Coast, no serious flooding is expected either. There is a fairly healthy chance of some flash flooding today from New Mexico through Kansas and into the Chicago metro.

We're losing #OpenAccess to #weather #data on the #NOAA web site. But #HamRadio operators can still access it directly from the #satellites. They can even decrypt most of it with a new #OpenSource decoder. Here's how.

Oh wow, #hamradio to the rescue

Remember that hurricane data that is being cut off by the US government? Guess who figured out how to get the data anyway?
