FRIDAY MORNING WEATHER (Powered By: Rose City Air & Altra Federal Credit Union - Texas) Good Friday morning, and welcome almost to the weekend! With the exception of the high perch at the Cherokee County Airport, temps are at or above where they were at the start of the day on Thursday. You can thanks a more consistent southerly wind overnight and the effects of that movement. But, it’s been enough to keep things stirred around just a bit. • As you may have seen from my brief post last night, we made it to 90° at all of our official sites yesterday afternoon for the first time in many months…a benchmark that we’ll do many more times between now and the early to middle part of October. I hope you enjoyed the Fall, Winter, & Spring processes, ‘cause we’ve now come upon the Summer ones around these parts. • Looking at the weather map this morning, surface high pressure has now been pushed well to our east and we have a decent difference in barometric pressure now established between us and the Texas Panhandle. This is gonna help foster a stronger breeze across our area today, and that’ll actually become a theme we’ll work with for the next several days. We haven’t had too much wind of late. • Our overall pattern is in the process of reorienting itself at this time and that will continue to occur over the weekend to the point where we’ll have a very stubborn trough over the western half of the country by later this weekend that will remain there through the first half of next week. That trough, combined with the copious amounts of moisture that’ll get drawn north off of the Gulf, thanks to the persistent southerly wind that I mentioned above, will allow for better rainfall chances to take over the area for much of next week, too. • The aforementioned breeze that we’ll hold onto over the next several days will put us back in position for regular bouts of morning low clouds, which we’re already seeing evidence of this morning. Don’t be surprised to see that exercise play itself out daily for a while. • Rain chances should remain at bay through the day on Sunday for us, as we remain pretty capped. However, by Sunday afternoon, some dryline storms look like they’ll try and first out well to our west and then make a run toward the east. This is what’s allowed for a low-end chance for showers and storms on Sunday night. We’ll repeat that process again on Monday afternoon and Tuesday, too, with better chance for moisture after dark thanks to those storms running in here from the west. The trough I mentioned above will be crossing the central part of the country on Wednesday and should be positioned to help us realized more rainfall here by that time. Models are also hinting at another system on its heels for Thursday, with a cold front, too, which should help to lengthen the opportunity for rain, that we could sure use. • On this day in 1896, an (estimated) F5 Tornado cut a 28 mile path across Denton & Grayson Counties, killing 73 and injuring 200. ☀️ Today • Sunrise: 6:23 am - Sunset: 8:12 pm | Total Daylight: 13:49 (+1:23) ⎥ Tyler Normals: 64/83 – Records: 95°/1901 -- 43°/1907 – 2.30”/1906 📊 Lower 48 Temp Extremes for Thursday: 110° at Rio Grande Village 🔹 15° at 14 miles west-southwest of Mackay, Idaho • Thursday Climate Stats • Tyler City: 64/90 (0) -- Tyler Pounds: 65/87 (0) -- Longview: 66/85 (0) – Lufkin: 66/88 (0) #etxwx #txwx

Erase tradition, erase merit, numb the living hell out of people with pills, desensitize them by normalizing the grotesque, collapse all historical time into a warped social-justice version of the present, and culture will be the first thing to go. We’re there now. Wasteland.

@amatorsarcasmi Me, too. It makes no sense...

@docdeason Yeah, and I wonder the same thing about ATT stadium roof for Oct, Nov games

They can sure leave it open a lot further into the month of May. I don't know why you'd close it in April, sans Rain. July & August, I get that.

Someone needs to sign Scotty! That was a major league catch! Not too many players make that catch! 👊👊👊

This is so on point, and it boggles the mind. The only thing unique about this time is how unimpressive it is compared to previous decades, ESPECIALLY in the music and film realms. The anniversary re-release of Top Gun only more light on that point. That was a different 🇺🇸. And, those of us who were around to see it in ‘86 are all too aware of it.

That’ll preach

THURSDAY MORNING WEATHER (Powered By: Rose City Air & Project One Roofing) Good Thursday morning and welcome to the back side of the work week. I heard of some schools letting out for the Summer, last week. And I know of some others cuttin’ kids loose this week. The march is on toward full-blown Summer around these parts. Temps yesterday had a bit more of that feel, too, as I made it to 90° at the NWS Coop site in South Tyler for the first time since October. There’ll be much more of that come, too. • Temps are anywhere from 4-13° warmer than they were at the start of the day on Wednesday, and as I told you yesterday, I think it’ll be many moons before we see those kinds of pleasantries around this area again. • We're on the western edge of surface high pressure this morning, and that will help to bring a gentle southerly wind back into the mix around here later today, before that breeze picks up in earnest tomorrow. From there, we’ll have breezy conditions to work with through the weekend and as a result, you’ll see the dew point spike to ‘bout where you’d expect for the days leading up to Memorial Day and beyond. So, the “Muggy Meter” is about to refire. • Looking aloft, we have ridging that is in the process of slowly transitioning across the southern part of the country at this time, and it will continue doing so through the day on Friday as the pattern eventually reverts to more of a southwesterly flow aloft over our area this weekend. • I can’t tell you how many folks I’ve talked to over the last few weeks who are in need of rain. I know the ranchers and farmers would love some. And it has been a very frustrating Spring of disappointing results from what looked like a number of good rain producers to the point where I’ll be a bit skeptical of any long-term or even short term data pointing toward significant rainfall until I see it, and I don’t think I’m alone in that. That said, we are still FREE of Burn Bans across our 26-county area, according to Texas A&M Forest Service, which is still quite a feat. • All of this being said, the European model as well as the American NBM are very bullish on rain for next week and the following week for that matter, which is, again, is encouraging to see. This makes total sense, given the look of the pattern, too. Oh, and by the way, it’s also flashing signs of some kind of system out in the Gulf trying to get its act together before making a run at the Central Coast of the U.S. by three or so weeks from today. Yeah. I know. We’ll see. ☀️ Today • Sunrise: 6:23 am - Sunset: 8:11 pm | Total Daylight: 13:47 (+1:24) ⎥ Tyler Normals: 64/83 – Records: 95°/1901 -- 41°/1971 – 4.75”/1905 📊 Lower 48 Temp Extremes for Wednesday: 106° at Death Valley, California 🔹 20° at Mt.

Amazing to see this kind of magic come together...

A woodpecker visited the Petrified Forest. He said it was impeccable.

@SteveDeaceShow It's not. But, it IS interesting timing.

My question earlier, too.
