Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll contribute to the global overdepletion of the ocean. So give him a salad, maybe.

Milton, a category 5 storm once again, is increasing in size and it's still on a course for the west coast of Florida tomorrow night. It's time to finalize preparations and either hunker down or get out (recommended if you can). Details: theeyewall.com/milton-is-a-...

Lemons abound with little serious concern in the Atlantic. The main thing to watch will be excessive rain again next week in parts of coastal Texas and Louisiana, though some slight development can’t be ruled out. Here’s what’s up: theeyewall.com/lemony-a-ser...

Support in modeling for next week's Caribbean wave to develop seems to have dropped a decent bit, and any organization will be slow. Low pressure in the Gulf will continue to fling rain at coastal Texas, where totals are as high as 8-10"+ so far. Details: theeyewall.com/tropical-wav...

We are back. Today we discuss Beryl’s remnants and flooding/tornado risk for New York as well as a southeast system. We also need to clarify how we cover Houston on this site so people understand why we’ve posted little since Sunday. Read: theeyewall.com/beryl-brings...

Caught totality at Dallas Love field. As you can see, partly cloudy, but still managed to get a few shots of the event. Solar prominences were visible to the naked eye.

Why I always mask up… Went to get my RSV vaccine today on a whim and while sitting in the pharmacy, a woman with a coughing child comes in and asks to buy COVID tests… While we all wait, she wheels the coughing child around the room. Thanks lady! 😷

Here's our Monday update on Invest 95L, which is likely to develop in the next couple days and become Tropical Storm and eventually Hurricane Lee. It should go north of the islands, but it remains a close call. We explain. theeyewall.com/september-4-...
