[QUOTE="KPRC2, post: 45283, member: 148"] You’ve heard the rain rumors for this week, but I can tell you now we’re not promising a lot! A weak cold front will be pushing through today and tonight, then meander around the gulf the next few days. Tomorrow, it will be offshore: [IMG alt="courtesy NOAA"]https://www.click2houston.com/resizer/0L8M5N7wxSAW2JZIyTLyTEG0UdY=/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/gmg/RBU2CDEAIVD6NDVQZJ6QZHGGBY.JPG[/IMG] Along that front an area of Low Pressure currently south of New Orleans will move toward Texas and that offers the best rain chances.
