So most models are still predicting a second landfall in East Texas?

I know. I'm just used to nowadays with social media having more scientific graphics and maps at our fingertips, it's interesting to see those newspaper style graphics.
Then again, those are the graphics that get shared most.

these models have been back n form back n forth who knows right now. I think we will have a much better understanding on what is going to happen once it makes landfall

Captain obvious USA Today comes in with the laziest graphic out there.
16-24+" is too broad a scale for people to understand the severity.
I can't get over the fat the NHC had to create a new color for their rainfall scale for Harvey.

Good morning everyone. I see everyone is in the same mood today.

It's a pretty cool campus, particularly for a directional type of school.

That means Harvey is having an eyewall replacement cycle.

within walking distance I have 2 HEB's here in Austin. I have not yet stopped, and I'm not really interested in anything but fresh gas bottles for my mini weber and meat. Growing up in central louisiana and coming here I probably take these storms lighter than I should, but these people are ridiculous.

Yea, A&M CC is totally fricked.

The slowdown near the coast was predicted by all the models, hence the reason the NHC says it will still be offshore in 18 hours.
The final stall and backtrack is still up in the air. If it never makes it inland, LA is super fricked.

The emergency situation is never so dire that we can't set aside a few pages for some middle aged dudes to have a spat

GeauxMEDIC must be running OK fumes. At least I got 5 hours of sleep last night.

I guess downvotes mean a "no" answer to my question? Not sure a simple question warrants a downvote, but what ever makes your dick move, I guess.

Harvey has been pretty much steady state this evening and has actually deteriorated in presentation (IMO) some over the last several hours. One of the things that appears to be going on is that outer convective band is actually competing with the core, at least the eastern side of the core. Convergence appears to more focused on that outer band (black arrows) and that is limiting convergence into the core. This process is also producing some subsidence that might be introducing low theta-e air (more stable) into the core. This has been limiting convection in the black circle and there haven't been any convective burst on that side of the circulation this evening.

Unfortunately, it looks like Harvey is almost 100% recovered from this and the dry air that got mixed in may have set off an early ERC. It's hard to say if it's a true ERC since the core of the storm has had off and on signs of competing eyewalls over night (two wind maxs) that could never truly close off. However, it looks like a final run at RI may be setting up as the eye is rapidly clearing and warming.

I have some family members headed to the medical center area on Monday. They are staying near the hospitals but right on Brays Bayou. How does that area handle rain?
I don't know if they will be able to make it. You should follow KPRC online and watch through the weekend. Could be a nothing burger or the whole damn med center could be flooded.

Yep. Texas A&M Corpus Christi is literally on an island in Corpus. Hopefully it is spared.
At least it's on the bay and not directly on the gulf... hopefully the barrier islands do their job and minimize the storm surge.

This is why we need a separate thread for information only from three or four posters. All the back and forth BS and people popping in every other page to ask for the latest updates, etc make this move so fast that it's hard to follow.
