    Read excerpt

    BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) - Tropical activity looks completely different depending on which ocean you’re looking at. The Pacific is booming with storm activity, while the Atlantic is relatively quiet. While it’s been a below-average season for the Atlantic Basin, this is classic behavior during a strong El Niño, which heats up Pacific waters while winds tear apart storms in the Atlantic. The National Hurricane Center is tracking three active hurricanes, Tropical Depression Eighteen-E, and a promising

    BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) - While the disturbance we tracked earlier this week is no longer a concern, attention has turned to a developing area of low pressure farther east in the Atlantic. An unsettled weather setup driven by abundant tropical moisture and an upper-level system is producing widespread showers, thunderstorms, and choppy seas across the northwest Bahamas, the Florida Keys, and adjacent waters.

This disturbance has produced gusty winds, choppy seas, and scattered showers and thunderstorms across open waters, but no major development is expected. The low-pressure center associated with these showers and storms is about 350 miles east of Bermuda. While the organization of this disturbed weather h

This disturbance has produced gusty winds, choppy seas, and scattered showers and thunderstorms across open waters, but no major development is expected. That said, the overall Atlantic hurricane season continues to be very quiet thanks to dominant El Niño weather patterns, which typically help suppress

    Tropical downpours bring localized drought relief across East Texas (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) - While the forecast remained dominantly hot and dry throughout August, tropical downpours across East Texas completely wiped out drought conditions in portions of Houston, Trinity, and Liberty Counties, as well as most of Polk, Tyler, and Hardin Counties. As tropical system Edouard swept across East Texas, estimated rainfall totals topped 20 inches near Tyler County, lining up exactly with where we found the most improvement in drought. Across the Brazos Valley, rainfall var
