You linked the GFS. On that page, select Hurricane models, HWRF, then Harvey.

I'm just not a big fan of no power and flooding really shutting everything down

But I'm a hurricane virgin so I may just he overreacting

You're not. I am born and raised in South La, so I am familiar with hurricanes and riding them out.

If I don't have to stay, then I'm not. Why opt to be miserable if you have options? If hurricanes hit in March or April, maybe. But not Aug/Sept

Those hurricane specific models are too bullish generally.

Why are local weather guys here in BR but even mentioning there's a chance for this to circle back into LA? pat shingleton said it was going into mexico

Eta Grimes just got on board with what you guys have been saying since yesterday!

Shingleton is irresponsible and doesn't really know what he's doing.

You're right. I had the the 850 mb wind speeds up. The 10m winds are 116kts in that frame. Thanks for pointing it out.

I'm suppose to go to that concert

I really don't want to go

Problem is those folks to the west of Houston. Probably a few of them that won't be able to make it. I think it's kind of foul to not reschedule the concert.
