With the heavy convection starting to explode as this reemerges over 85 degree water, I wouldnt be surprised to see a hurricane by midday tomorrow.

New QPF forecast ramping up the totals...

I wouldn't be shocked to see a CAT-2 by tomorrow night. The other storm that came off the Yucatan earlier this month had a strong hurricane form within hours.

And this was the forecast from 8/11/16.
I will stick by what I said earlier. BR won't get near 10-15 inches of rain, unless this system moves in a more northerly direction. I just don't see anything pulling it north.

Ok. We get it. He doesn't know what he's talking about. That has been previously established in this thread.

7 or 8 inches of rain between now and Tuesday, fine. 20+ inches? No thank you. If this motherfricker stalls over the southern half of the state, it may be returned to the sea permanently.

How reliable are the NAM models?
I believe they're more for short-range forecast, but I'm not sure.
The current 18z run has this thing stalling out in the GOM south of Galveston and east of Brownsville @ 84 hours out. The Euro and GFS have it over land by that time.

There is still shear from the ULL to deal with and the developing LLC is still embedded within the wave axis, so development should be pretty slow over the next 24 hours.

If you're worried about flooding, you want a stronger storm, correct? Stronger storms wrap the rainfall tighter and move quicker. Yes or no?

Didnt you say in this thread that there was no way this hits Texas?

Anyone know what the forecasts were last year for the flood?
Here's the August 2016 400+ page Flood Thread
Looks like it was started the week before things got bad. Should establish a good timeline. Too bad the image hosting sites revoked message board privileges since then. No much in the way of visuals left.
Hope this helps.

18z GFS is weaker again and heaviest rain totals are confined to coastal areas. Very tight gradient around Houston with 10-12" for the city but 40" down towards Galveston. Second landfall around Pecan Island, LA.

I was supposed to fly out to Jacksonville that Friday, the 12th and had to cancel. I'm supposed to fly out to Jacksonville this Friday- hope its not a trend.
Posted on 8/22/17 at 5:29 pm to rds dc
looks like its stronger when it makes it 2nd landfall in Louisiana.

Pass over or very near to BR on the 30th.
