Alex Update - 11:45 PM Sunday

Alex's track continues to trend farther north and could potentially threaten the southern coast of Texas. All data is in agreement with Alex strengthening to a hurricane in the next 24 to 36 hours.

We Need Rain...Now!

We are now 3.72" below normal for rainfall this year. Believe it or not, we were slightly drier at this time last year. The map below shows the departure from normal rainfall for the past 60 days. It is easy to see that most of the East Coast is suffering from dry conditions. It's even worse in parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas.

Alex Update - 5:00 PM Sunday

Alex has weakened to a tropical depression, but should quickly restrengthen back to a tropical storm once it moves over the warm waters of the southern Gulf. It still looks like it will make landfall as a hurricane somewhere along the northeastern coast of Mexico, though some of the latest data is pulling it a little farther north. We will continue to monitor this trend and bring the the latest later this evening.
