A little off the topic. I noticed that IAH, Houston International Airport-Bush, has only received 0.09" of rain this month.
Galveston NWS office said that they needed 0.04" to tie the all time driest June.
I don't live far from Houston Intercontinental and work there to, I got my electric bill for May 15-June 15 today....$405.00 to go along with the $100.00 water bill that came yesterday. We have bouts of weather like this every year but it started much earlier this year. We need that little system in the BOC to make a bee line due north to Houston.
A well defined area of low pressure is in the BOC. Although bouys dont show alot of wind, heavy thunderstorms are widespread throughout the area with pressures near 1008mb. It could become a depression or even TS later on Tuesday but not sure if NHC will send a plane to investigate since its proximaty to the Mexican coast and nearing the coast on Tuesday. This might be 1 of the possible TS that make landfall too quick to be classified.
