It's hard to comprehend why these Texas forecasters keep right on predicting 4 to 10 inches of rain for our region when by now it should be obvious that Houston will have torrential rain throughout the night into Monday and Austin and vicinity will have occasional sprinkles with maybe a wetting to perhaps a quarter inch of rain thru Monday night. I am no meteorologist but why do they keep on paying these Mets down here big money for crazy forecasts nearly a FOOT of rain, when Buda usually does not see that much in 10 months? I think the NWS down here may need to go back to weather school. I am getting warnings on my phone! I know damn well I'm not getting a half inch of rain through May 15! We are in a DROUGHT. Drop these ridiculous warnings for Austin and Hays County NOW! This might be a more reasonable forecast Here it is: Sunday night for the Austin Metropolitan Region including Buda, Sprinkles overnight, Wetting to quarter inch of rain at most. Monday, Mostly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of a passing shower, maybe one sixteenth of an inch of rain. Rest of the week partly cloudy, SE winds, highs in the upper 70s to low 80s, lows near 67. The southeasterlies will maintain low level humidity into the foreseeable future. Warn Houston, anyone can see they are in full flood stage and will stay there through Thursday at least! All the rain is training over them and will through Monday morning! Where do these Texan meteorologists come from? Oh wait, all the experts got fired by YOU KNOW WHO! OK Texan NWS, that is MUCH BETTER! I apologize, you guys are pretty smart after all! Probably a 195 Intelligence Quotient! .UPDATE... Issued at 902 PM CDT Sun Apr 12 2026 The Flood Watch previously in effect for portions of the I-35 corridor and Coastal Plains was cancelled at around 9 PM CDT. While the atmosphere should remain more moist than normal through the night over the former watch region, a lack of strong forcing and lowered confidence in the coverage of widespread heavy rain led to the cancellation of the watch. Regardless, a few isolated showers and storms may still produce some localized heavy downpours overnight, given the moist environment. This is a much better forecast. It's likely to be correct for the Austin area and surrounding cities and towns. Hey, THANKS, Texas NWS! You guys are pretty cool folks!

Check out Alpine Peak Cam at Palisades Tahoe!!! They got well over two feet of snow and it is STILL POURING HUGE AGGREGATES! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams#tab=alpine The 8200 foot Scope - They cleared that platform earlier today with a snow blower, well it has a 3 foot drift covering it! I think Palisades got 2 feet just today, not counting the 16 to 26 inches last night! Wow man this is an all-out atmospheric river for Palisades! Mammoth was too far south for the river. https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams#tab=palisades

Last night it was Dallas that got the floods. Today it was Houston that got all the rain. We're stuck in the middle with very little rain as the Drought of the Milennium roars on amid record emigration right into South Central Texas as millions of people suck up what little water is left. There's no hope at all for us and no hope for me. Soon, I'll be completely waterless and shit out of luck. In other news today Mammoth got another 8 inches of snow at least as the freshies keep on falling hard. This is a nice reset for Mammoth and for skiers. Those folks should have plenty of fresh water as well.

Mammoth is getting demolished by heavy wind driven snows right now! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam

Mammoth got 18 inches last night. They just got upgraded to a foot of new snow today!

This, is one of my more favorite Gen Z tracks,

Mammoth got 18 inches. Palisades got 24 inches. Snow is still falling. Buda got about 7 inches of MISSED RAIN. The huge line moved northeast and severe drought is assured for Buda. We got missed. Par for the Course per usual. This happens all the time. Dry as a vile popcorn fart and people moving in and the entire Kyle/Buda Metroplex is being constructed up far faster than Dubai in the past 50 years, in only 3 years. We are gonna run out of water. When we do, cost of the water will be extremely high and few will be able to afford it. South Central Texas will have to extensively process Gulf of Mexico water and this will cost everyday people so much that a very good thing will finally happen to Texas: Depopulation! Everyone will move to Redstone in Alabama where all the jobs are and they get a ton of rain. No one ever realized the frightening Magnitude of the Drought of the 21st Century in Texas. You gotta have the water to LIVE and water is going to be extremely expensive. Many folks will end up moving, to literally greener pastures in the Mid South where they get 90 inches of rain a year. I have been weeding mom's flowerbeds and I have never in all my born days, ever seen her rosebushes so short. In a normal year I have to clip 20 foot long branches of the rosebush up front. This year, nothing. We are shit out of luck. It's obvious its gonnabe a prohibitively DRY YEAR. Mid April and we have yet to mow the damn lawn. It's brown as a Thanksgiving turkey. They are gonnabe fining people in BUDA for watering lawns. This is in actuality a multiyear drought and this year we got so little rain its record BAD.

Well well well I was looking at an older picture of the Woolly Camera. I reloaded it and man that place is a snow globe, with 4 inches on the Woolly Lot. That snow is blowing all over the place and visibilities are shot all to hell and back! Even the Village Level has an inch of snow and even there the snow is so heavy its unbelievable. You have to keep refreshing the damn camera! I was looking at what was likely a 5 hours old image. Well it's updated and that place is getting so fracking DEMOLISHED! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/the-village At the Woolly Lot level snow is now coming down so fracking HARD that you can't even see the ground! They are just getting utterly DESTROYED by torrential snow that is being whipped into a milkshake froth! I'd estimate 4-5 inches on the Lot with drifts on the steps to 9 inches, temp is 26 and falling! The forecast for tonight WAS 9-13 inches. They just updated it to 14 to 20 inches! I am gonna stay up all damn NIGHT LONG! Its a gray froth, wind is simply BLASTING that heavy snow sideways so hard, it's a grey froth and piling up. In other news the line of impressive storms in Texas will clip us to the north in all likelihood I will end up with 5 minutes of drizzle/light rain. But that SNOW in Mammoth is UNDENIABLE! It is just POURING DOWN in a gray froth! Plow guy has arrived on the Woolly Lot at 3am Texas time. Snow looks to be about 6-7 inches deep. Still pouring down and blowing like a wild banshee!

Orange and red radar returns are directly over Mammoth. Mammoth has light flurries. It's 28 degrees with winds to 60 mph. Roads are mainly wet. I have never in my entire life, ever seen such a sucky suck COC winter at Mammoth. And while I am at it, THIS IS NOT CHURCH! COC is NOT spelled COC. It is C-O-C-K! Get this damned message board whipped into shape! NOW! It's high spring at Mammoth now. Snowpack on the slopes is thin. Skiers are being warned of hidden obstacles. I hope we get such a record, devastating super ultra El Nino this year, that Mammoth gets 240 feet of snow, and Buda gets 500 inches of rain. I am completely, utterly DISGUSTED with this suck ass winter in the Sierra. This winter is so horrible at Mammoth, with wet streets at 28 degrees with light flurries under stark red/orange returns, that we need to change the NAME, to the DMV Resort. The Washington DC Resort. Because even at 11,000 feet, Mammoth has light flurries and wet roads just like Northern Virginia in mid January. And it sucks gigantic GOAT BALLS!

Okay correction. It has just been brought to my attention that 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 percent of the forcing in Texas will be 400 miles north of Buda. We Always Get Missed. Therefore I will see five minutes of drizzle. One thing I really CRAVE for, is a super El Nino with rain amounts about 99 decillion percent above normal for Fall and Winter 2026-2027. I want so damn much rain in south central Texas that the river that runs thru Austin ends up putting Buda under 150 feet of water. You know, I am so fracking crazy about humanitarian-disaster-level rains, that I actually wish the Cabal was still in power and they set out to destroy Texas with Biblical rains. They had the power. Now, that will never happen. I'd have adored that! Being in the news about a Harvey-like tropical storm that somehow had so much moisture and swirled over Buda for 9 months with meters of rainwaters. I'd have been out on a monumental historic jebwalk checking out water levels! I have always craved for a severe flood. I have been around for 62 years and I have NEVER been in a real flood. I am NOT thankful to g-d. The only thing that I will ever express gratitude for, is a devastating flood with many meters of water that I am in. I want a 9 billion, 999 decillion milennial El Nino in Texas this autumn. We need 70 percent of the people out of here anyway. I want severe floods like in The Bible. Too damn BAD I missed that. FUCK SNOW. I want Waterworld-like rain amounts.

This is likely the biggest western US trough ever experienced since records began! The same incredible Pacific trough that is bringing catastrophic snows to California ski resorts for the next three days, is the very same brobdingnagian trough that is bringing badly needed rains to the severely desertified regions of south central Texas tonight through Wednesday! There is a brobdingnagian blob of rain in W TX heading eastbound to Austin and will hammer most of central and eastern Texas.

There is a truly Brobdingnagian blob of oceanic moisture inbound to the Cordillera. A goodly yuge chunk of the Pacific is inbound to dump world-ending amounts of heavy snow tonight! It's gonnabe a world of hurt out there as 2-4 inch per hour snow rates overtake all the Sierran ski resorts tonight. Stay tuned, I will keep y'all updated! Palisades Tahoe is already getting demolished! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Alpine Tahoe is getting hammered, too! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams#tab=alpine

Many thanks to all who contributed to this thread - wow you guys sure know a lot about the big ski resorts! Those places make Mammoth look like an Allegheny foothill.

Gentlemen, this is the Mammoth Mountain Resort. I know its April but these guys are starting to get hosed down but good by snow and may get 2-3 feet by Monday morning. It's really coming down right now! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam

Thank you very much!

I'd be so happy, in fact I'd be so REBORN from the April Fools Blizzard of 2026 in Washington, DC with 39 inches of fresh snow, that I'd fly in on a red-eye just for the occasion.

Its getting close to 4 dollars a gallon in Buda.

Wow it is POURING SNOW at Mammoth right now! It's a RESET!!! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam

You can see drifting up to 8 inches tall from 2-3 inches of accumulation already off the Woolly Lot cam as of 6.30pm Mammoth local time! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam Winds are setting up; temps have fallen 3-4 degrees in past hour; road surfaces caved fully about 90 minutes ago. Snow will continue into the evening. Modeling indicates possibly a couple inches of water equivalent. My thinking is they pick up 12-18 inches by late tomorrow; Tahoe will get 20-34 inches by same timeframe.

Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort is seeing snow! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/woolly-cam

Waving back, it's no surprise I fall under the neurodivergent umbrella, at least under DSM-5. I love snow more than people or anything else, even in an ice age. No WAY I'm neurotypical. No way. Severe OCD, some aspergers, yeah I'm ND. Now I love technology too, just found out we're heading for Kardashev 2 within one human lifetime From 0.7 Kardashev to 2.0 Kardashev in 80 years? Yes we can with off-world help, Tall Whites and Pleiadians for starters, they want to catch Earth folks up with the rest of the Galaxy. Now I like tech more than snow. Same affliction. I have got a BAAAAAAAD addiction to anything tech, especially robotics and AI and accelerated development and especially electro-gravitics, as in the technological singularity. Now if that's not ND, I don't know what is. Antigravity propulsion and zero energy are gonna REALLY REALLY REALLY alter lots of stuff. I am getting really excited about this, especially regen pods because I might get to be 23 again, jebwalking again, and worse totally crazy about the SNOW again, especially with the very real possibility of serious life extension and eventually open ended lifespans which brings us to why I adore cybernetics so damn much these days. Yeah sure I am ND.

Mammoth has been so overwhelmingly HOT that it is a catastrophe. They'll close down early this season. Damn, I feel cheated to hell. I want my Mammoth snow fixes! NOW!

Not sure what on earth is happening, but something is definitely up this summer. Oh wait! It's early Spring!

WOW Dale City hit 84/54 today, in late March?!!!! Dale City's normal temperatures are a high of 56, a low of 37 degrees. This is going to be a VERY VERY hot summer! Some locations in the Mid Atlantic got hotter than Buda today which only managed to eke out mid 80s. Mammoth is averaging 50s and 60s and the snow is getting very shallow all over. To all intents and purposes the jet stream is up north for good and it is now late spring early summer in the Sierra. Snowmelt is rapid and many resorts will be forced to close early. Earliest end to winter up there in a century.

That McD fish sandwich is sooooooo good! I could easily scarf down about seven of them. Chick fil A strips are my weakness. Those things are soooooo expensive. If I could afford it I'd get five 4 strip orders. I love Chick fil A strips better than a good Sierran 4 foot blizzard with 150mph wind gusts.
