BanderThanYou Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 HYDRATE Y'ALL, DONT DIEDRATE!! With Texas being the hot son of a gun it is, I thought it'd be interesting to make a discussion about weather; whether that involves complaining about the hot and humid/dry heat of Texas or the extremely rainy competition days. If I'm not mistaken, I remember last year being quite rainy and some competitions were running behind schedule because of it. Also, everybody's favorite conversation ice breaker is weather, so why not start a topic about it? This week's weather: - Austin: For once it's supposed to not reach into the 100's this week - San Antonio: Looking a little hotter than Austin but not too bad. - Houston: Looks like y'all are getting some rain this week with slightly cooler temps. - Dallas: hot and dry Quote
TWHSParent Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 Houston: A little cooler here with mid-90's (was still 99 yesterday), with some seabreeze rain kicking up off and on. Our heat advisory has been dropped, as the feel-like temp is only supposed to be around 105. This weekend is supposed to have a higher chance for rain as a tropical wave is coming onshore (no development, just moisture). Quote
gregorydf01 Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 I was out in Houston this past weekend and I can say I feel for the kids outside practicing in that humidity! I am glad to be in Austin where the humidity levels are much lower!!! TWHSParent 1 Quote
LeanderMomma Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 Austin is still boiling in 100+ temps until Friday or Saturday I believe and then it’s supposed to drop a little. It definitely looks to be a much drier football season than last year’s was. That was a mess! BanderThanYou 1 Quote
PSHSMom Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 Hot here in DFW too, 100 with a heat index of 106. But after last year, I won't ask for rain yet LeanderMomma 1 Quote

MadisonBandMan1 Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 It rained right before our "Meet the Mavs" night so it was extra humid and the field was wet the whole night, We had to sit on wet turf for an hour and a half. Quote
AvonDad Posted August 24, 2019 Posted August 24, 2019 Current weather condition at my house is 77 degrees and 51% humidity with winds around 10 mph and sunny. Passed by the band practicing on the field. Don't worry, in 2 months I'll be jealous of the rest of you. TWHSParent 1 Quote

Don't worry, in 2 months I'll be jealous of the rest of you. here in San Antonio - we are on the 24th consecutive day of temps or heat index of 100 degrees or more - no relief in sight, but come October we will be loving life... hope we have some great weather when you visit in November AvonDad 1 Quote
TWHSParent Posted August 25, 2019 Posted August 25, 2019 here in San Antonio - we are on the 24th consecutive day of temps or heat index of 100 degrees or more - no relief in sight, but come October we will be loving life... hope we have some great weather when you visit in November About the same here - I think the last time that we didn't hit 100 with air temp or heat index was July 24-26 after that very unusual cold front went through. Prior to that it would have been in late June. We are getting some decent rain from that tropical wave I mentioned in an earlier post. Super-humid of course... Quote
MadisonBandMan1 Posted August 29, 2019 Posted August 29, 2019 This isn't for Texas (yet), but please send prayers for those in the path of Hurricane Dorian. It's forecast to make landfall somewhere along the coast of Florida/Southern Georgia as a high end Category 3 hurricane but I have the sneaking suspicion that some rapid intensification is going to occur especially with how warm the waters are this year with it being such a quiet hurricane season. If the system makes it all the way through Florida it could restrengthen in the Gulf of Mexico where the waters are even warmer. This is starting to remind me a lot of Hurricane Katrina right now and that's what has me worried. LeanderMomma and PSHSMom 2 Quote

Samuel Culper Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Send some rain to Austin! We need it. Quote
LeanderMomma Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Send some rain to Austin! We need it. Yes, it’s crispy here! Quote
gregorydf01 Posted September 2, 2019 Posted September 2, 2019 Send some rain to Austin! We need it. But no rain on Game and Contest nights! For now it looks like were safe to not repeat last years monsoon Marching Season. Let's keep our fingers crossed! Next two weeks looks like very Hot and Sunny, repeat......... Quote

Let's keep our fingers crossed! Next two weeks looks like very Hot and Sunny, repeat......... Yes, 100+ degree days for the next seven days at least, if not longer. I’m so ready for cooler temperatures. Quote
TWHSParent Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Looks like a little bit of rain in the valley from tropical storm Fernand. Doesn't look like a major impact however. Houston area stays dry, upper 90's/low 100's all week. Early next week looks like it could drop to low 90's. Quote

BanderThanYou Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 WOw, it's actually gonna stay in the mid-range 90's all this week in Austin, is the blistering hot summer finally over? Quote

CTJBandPops Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 I was wondering (and hoping!) the same thing. it is Texas - don't like the weather - wait an hour Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 We hit 101 today, then the rain came down for about twenty minutes and it cooled down to the 70s. gregorydf01 1 Quote
