Texas storms are LOUD this spring

Hello Y'all! Well it's been raining here in the DFW metroplex for a whole month or more now, every day. And I'm not complaining since we just had that horrible drought but what I wanted to comment on is the loudness of the thunder.

We have had more house shaking booms than I can ever remember. Long, long rumbles of thunder that are so loud the whole house stops and looks. ( the people, cats and dogs  )

The lakes are full to bursting and algae and moss are growing up the trees. Crazy! But the thunder is the thing, If I was going to give it a meteorological name, I'd have to call it....... Thunder thunder......

if this feast of trumpets is the ONE, it happens from sundown sept 13th- sundown sept 15, i pray God we are ready and watching and found worthy to escape the things coming on the world, del...

my wife really gets unsettled with thunder, please dont send it north...

Y'all can send some of that wet stuff west towards Californy if you'd like. We'll take all we can get. We'll let y'all keep the tornadoes though. Us left coasters don't want to seem greedy or ungrateful.

 

Seriously, I've been monitoring the weather and I know DFW and surrounding areas have been catching it but good. I'm glad you are OK. I remember not so long ago when Texas was thirsty for rain and in serious drought. Feast - famine - feast - famine . . . . . And the beat goes on.

WATCH YOUR HELM WEATHER WISELY!!!!
It may be manipulated to confine you to your homestead for the Night Of Long Knives RAID!!!

Everyone say a little prayer that Delfi doesn't get washed away.

Officials in parts of Texas are warning that flooding could last for weeks in the wake of unprecedented amounts of May rainfall. Those rainfall totals, which have now topped 20 inches since May 1 in at least two cities, will climb still higher over the Memorial Day weekend as thunderstorms dump even more rainfall on an already water-logged region.

I live just north of Fort Worth. The storms here have been crazy. I've never seen lightning like I did last week. It would shoot horizontally across the sky and then shoot straight up.

researcher, I have enough standing water in my yard to water your whole hillside, probably.  Thanks for the prayers y'all. I do remember it rained like this about 10 yrs ago. That was before the drought. It seems to be cyclical but the thunder and lightning is so radical, I don't remember ever seeing or hearing anything like it.

I use Weather Underground as they have usually the most complete data compiled into one place, though I do think that they, like many others, drive this global warming nonsense way to hard. Below are a few links to current data and they contain some tid-bits about the start of this current storm front. A little searching on their home page (top link) will bring up more detailed data for a given area. The links in the quote box may be helpful as well. Hope you'll find something useful in all that.

Thanks, researcher. I found this: Severe Thunderstorms on the National Weather Service site, but it's not clear that the storms began this date. Your links seem more complete.

Glad to hear you're OK!

Glad I could help out. Hope you and John get what you need.

researcher, if you've been monitoring the weather, do you know when this current storm front in OK/TX started? I'm supposed to find that info for John but if you know the date or know where I should look to find out, it would be very helpful.

It started 3 weeks ago and hasn't stopped, until today!!!!!!! It's sunny!!! yeah!
