It looks like the tentacles are stretching my way for a big rain day. I was hoping to log on and see something from Frank P. It looks like the Central MS Coast (Harrison to western Jackson Co.) got 4-5" of rain overnight. I think what's in the Gulf today is that reverse eddy stuff Joe B. talks about alot just beyond the eastern side of an upper low. It is definitely building and will probably mean a few inches of rain for me today. But these types of eddys and also some of the feeds have been going like this all week. They have been strongest in the daytime and weaker during the overnight hours. But the strongest storms and highest cloudtops continue to propagate westward. As to whether they start firing directly over Houston (or just offshore of Galveston or the Golden Triangle area) will depend on whether the ULL continues to move NW. I think today's also has something to do with a split flow around the east side of the low and the west side of the high over the SE.

I'm going out on the limb and guessing we get 3.25" today and minor street flooding in some of the areas that always flood.
