As much as 14 inches
SW Texas quadrouples its normal July rain

Southwest Texas has received more than four times the amount of rain that normally falls in July in the last day due to a stationary front. More to come.

A stationary front, wedged between two high-pressure systems, continues to bring several inches of rain from Texas to the Tennessee Valley and Southeast. While one high pressure is bringing 100-degree heat to the northern Plains and Upper Midwest, the other is churning in the southern Gulf. The southern U.S. has been caught in a soggy pattern in the middle of these two circulations.

The stationary front bringing flooding rains is wedged between two high-pressure systems.

Normally, southwest Texas gets a little over two inches of rain in July, and during this event, many spots have reached between 7 and 9 inches with Hondo, Texas, getting around 14 inches - an entire summer's worth of rainfall.

The WeatherRadar shows heavy, slow-moving storms continuing and not letting up until the end of the week, especially for Texas.

Super Typhoon Bavi threatens Taiwan. 155 mph winds. . Weather Videos. Wednesday, July 8, 2026
The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
