So, is it time to loot my local Rouse's, or nah
Too late. I already purchased all of the water from the metropolitan area Rouses.

motherfricker, what was suppose to be a weekend of fishing saturday and George Strait in the Dome Sunday is going to turn into prepping camps and moving boats

We're still going to see George (unless they cancel) then turning around and heading to Dallas on Monday. Going to be a fun drive out of town. I'm hoping for a slight shift eastward to leave NOLA out of it completely save for some moderate rain.

Exactly. I understand the science that the NHC is using to categorize the system but to me it causes a messaging problem. We spend a lot of time internally at the various science based agencies discussing how to best communicate technical science to the general public. IMHO, the NHC should either not name it or just call it a TS. Then in the technical discussion describe that it has subtropical characteristics. There are plenty of examples of highly sheared TS that look like STS.
Alberto formed from a large cyclonic gyre interacting with a upper level trough over the Gulf. Cindy formed last year from a large cyclonic gyre that interacted with a tropical wave. So one started tropical and one subtropical.
Here is the Cindy rainfall map, most impacts were well east of the center.
So for the avg beachgoer, the impacts are basically the same.

Yeah if it doesn't get cancelled we will be there

I'm just checking in.
My family was supposed to go to a place west of Gulf Shores next week. Looks like a bad idea based on what I'm seeing

And west.
Is there an escape path north from that point?

Ahhh frick... Time to go swimming in the fish bowl! The operational pumps that are online will surely overheat and catch on fire/blow up.

12z GFS is running now. It's a bit slower and west of the 6z run.

Upper trough cuts off early on that run and thus the strength with shear dropping bigly.
The problem of course, is that it now looks like the GFS has it trapped in weak stearing.

Not exactly an ideal solution.

Looks like about 24hrs to drift from the mouth of the River to NO on this run.

go ahead... give the pump operators Memorial Day off... they wouldn't help any anyway
