I am curious when my gf will be able to land back in Houston. Maybe Tuesday night? Definitely Wednesday I think.

How long were the power outages during Ike in the Loop? I've stocked up for 3-4 days at least but am hoping it won't be that long.



No way to know. We lived in the Heights during Ike. We had no power for two weeks. Our neighbors across the street never lost power. A felled tree knocked down the lines to our whole block. Took Centerpoint two weeks to get us up and running.

See how that dark area/band in the NE quadrant seems to be moving away? Is there any chance that the ridge to the NW or wind shear to the north and NW might help break this system down once it gets on land and begins to weaken?


Wind shear won't be an issue for a few days at best. The system will likely get elongated once it starts its exit. That convection in the NE has been there for nearly 36 hours.

Hey RDC what is "RI"?

Rapid intensification? Something more scientific that means rapid intensification?

I thought about making a thread but it would be better for Bay or rds to start it IMO.

rds and baytiger are the pros. I just have a decent amount of free time and the ability to post the right gifs and images most of the time.

Don't sell yourself short. You do a pretty good job as well as Medic. Bay and RDS are by far the most experienced and knowledgeable.

I am probably just making this up, but it seems like in the past when a slow-moving hurricane approaches land, it often tends to hover up the coastline for a while before actually going inland. Is that a thing or just my imagination?

"False forecasts and irresponsible rumors on social media are interfering with efforts by the city of Houston, and its government and news media partners, to provide accurate information to the public about the expected effects of Tropical Storm/Hurricane Harvey.

"All residents of Houston and surrounding areas should rely solely on proven information sources, including the National Weather Service and the city Office of Emergency Management, to decide how to prepare for the heavy rainfall expected here.

"No evacuation orders have been issued for the city and none is being considered. Please continue to monitor mainstream news sources for updates on the weather and act accordingly as an informed resident. Rumors are nothing new, but the widespread use of social media has needlessly frightened many people today."
