What's Next Texas, a plague of Locusts or Frogs?

Thunderstorms dumped 8"+ on us over Wednesday night. Today the Saharan Dust has settled in and it looks like 1960's LA smog (or maybe New Delhi ) outside.

If you've got allergy/sinus/bronchial issues, don't even think about going outside...

and this to shall pass - eventually.

Ha ha, no doubt!

It sounds like you Houston peeps are having to summon up all of your TexASS toughness reserves right now. It's something to read quotes from some Baylor Medical Houston folks that are calling it a dire public health crisis (for Houston, San Antonio, DFW and Austin).

So locusts - Since they descend, strip away everything good and leave the land blighted.

Is that what I’m hearing?

Kermits not on the same level of destructiveness.

I just started “Twister” on Netflix. It has a PG13 rating due to an “intense depiction of very bad weather”.
