If you missed the last post on the 9th, please read it (click here). There really isn't much to add to that post. As we get deeper into September, perhaps I will start to see the evidence of the "new" pattern that will begin to slowly show itself.
In the previous post on the 9th, I said "If fact, in my analysis that I've been using to pick out periods of opportunity, the next date(s) will be centered on August 18, for just a few days. If you miss out on that, then the final opportunity for August should be towards the end of the month. In between - hot and dry.
The date of the 18th worked out for some of you but as is typical, many missed out - again. The significance was the area that "had" been extremely dry across southeast Colorado and far southwest Kansas got a pretty soaking! Here is a map of rainfall for the 72 hour period ending yesterday the 18th (morning)....
Other than what I was expecting for the end of the month and also the period in September mentioned in the previous posting ( a possibility of a decent front centered around September 6 and maybe that could bring some rain that would be key for fall planting later in the month.), there really isn't anything else I can pick out as the weather pattern starts its transition. Hopefully more on that when I get a chance to post again. I know fall prep and planting is coming up later in September. Obviously getting rain this next 2 to 3 weeks will be very critical.
Finally, here is the expected rainfall through the end of next week (provided by the Weather Prediction Center), which by the way is extremely significant for Texas!...
If this amount of rain verifies, will that impact weather going into the fall? I think so. More on that later.
