Don’t blame you. Some of the models have that area targeted for heavy rainfall.
But I doubt it will be anything like Harvey. Maybe at most half the amount of rain

I don’t know who COTI is…but he can DIAF.

I'm right next to you in League City. To my knowledge my street has never had a problem with flooding. Magnolia Creek runs directly behind my house but the water level is always extremely low so it handles a ton of would be flood waters. I wasn't here for Harvey, but neighbors said we didn't flood.
I honestly didn't even realize this storm was this major. No one is talking about it here other than the fact that it is going to rain this week. I never even saw this thread until now.
I honestly only realized it was a tropical storm because I got a message from CCISD saying schools will be closed tomorrow to let everyone prepare for the storm. The Walmart gas station on 518 had no gas when I went there earlier.

Latest update not the best for Houston and us in SETX.

Maybe, maybe not. Let's see when the rainfall graphic gets updated. SE shift in track may shift the heaviest rain offshore.

What update is this?

The track guidance and the model consensus has shifted eastward somewhat since the earlier advisory package. This has necessitated an eastward shift in the official track, and a northeastward extension of the watches and warnings.

Doubt the rain shifts much.

Yeah, luckily it’s pretty dry so hoping that the ground will absorb a lot of the rain. My sister lives in league city as well. Really hoping we luck out this time.

GFS model actually had the bullseye on Houston.
Somewhat lining up now with the latest advisory
Reason why they issued a hurricane watch earlier. As of now looks like making a Matagorda Bay landfall as a strong TS with possible hurricane level gust.

When is latest you would want to fly into Houston before this hits?

When there isn’t a defined center it happens all the time
This was already being predicted this afternoon though. Like I said it was the reason why the NHC issued the hurricane watch.
But this still isn’t much of a defined center. Just one area with stronger winds and lower barometric pressure. Still isn’t defined as a center of a cyclone.
This could happen sometime tomorrow. At least it could be close enough to the coast so even with rapid intensification it won’t intensify too much.
The authorities here in Matagorda County were informed earlier this could happen by the NHC and NWS Houston.
They were thinking a Lower Texas Coast landfall was very unlikely

Met on KHOU was saying flights likely safe until Monday Eve/Night. Wouldn’t want to be driving back from airport monday night but flights won’t get canceled until tropical storm conditions arrive.

KHOU's extended YouTube reports are quite good. Mets are thorough.

Nice and sloppy on Brownsville radar but plenty of rain to the east of the circulation.
