Houston currently needs 15+ inches of rain to get us out of this drought, and it is the same all around Texas and the South.

EDIT: Skuzzy the High pressure system is migrating East as we speak...it has a chance to leave a hole for the storm to enter :)

All of Texas needs the rain, badly.  I'd welcome a tropical storm.

Unfortunately, the high pressure dome over us is like a rock imbedded in concrete.  It simply will not budge.

In south central Louisiana right now. The temperature dropped to the low 80's and we are clouded up pretty good. Nice change here since it was 100 down to high 90's last week.

I lived in Corpus Christi all my life and a tropical wave never ever even made the news, they just said is going to rain.
