The spreads between areas not far from each other on here is insane. 56 inches in Victoria and 3 inches in what looks like Columbus?
That's how these tropical systems work. There will be an area that gets 30 inches, and within 50 miles of there, locations will only get 5 inches.
Alvin, TX got 43 inches in 24 hours during Claudette. Sugar Land got like 3.

No worries with that, at least for me. I've never been so uncomfortable.

Haven't seen an eye on a hurricane in the gulf since what... Wilma in 2005? Pretty sure Gustav and Ike didn't have eyes when they were in the Gulf.

PSA for everyone cleaning up after Harvey: wash your hands thoroughly before scratching one's balls.

I see there is also a slight chance this thing bounces back off the coast on Monday and strengthens back up as it moves to the NE. This is going to have crazy amounts of water dumped on the whole area. Absolutely nuts. I wouldn't be shocked to see San Antonio hardcore flooded either. They flood with 2 inches of rain....if they get 12-18 inches, god help them

The last two center fixes from recon suggest Harvey is moving only a few degrees west of due north.
That's not ideal, and hopefully is an anomaly. However, a few of the models suggested a more northward movement as it neared the coast.

Reminds me of last summer down here Scoop.
Except even slower moving and a bloody hurricane. The high sandwich is a special kind of nightmare.

is that what they're calling it nowadays?
I've lost track... it's been called so many names
Posted on 8/25/17 at 9:42 am to slackster
By no means, am I an expert so I am more asking... On radar, doesn't it look like it is tracking more North?
Posted on 8/25/17 at 9:43 am to rt3
it definitely takes a northward wobble (at the very least... if not a jog) as soon as it hits the 96 degree line
Posted on 8/25/17 at 9:43 am to slackster
Yep, looks like it's been moving almost due north for about the last hr or so. I don't think t will continue, but that's the direction he's been moving.

I'm not sure why the NWS isn't putting totals on the 5 day Quantitative Precipitation Forecast, but it can be inferred they're expecting 37 inches of rain in the Victoria area.

Dude get that shite out of here

Any chance this makes landfall, weakens, gets pushed back into the gulf, and reforms?
After the flooding in Nola a couple of weeks ago with that little rain I am just a little paranoid

Are we betting on a Cat 4 in 8-10 hours?
