as far as water being pushed, Katrina's reputation is from levee blowing out. City made out fairly well until the breaches.

you keep saying Rita.
In your opinion, in what areas will Harvey be 20 times worse than Katrina?

Holy frick that would be bad for SELA and the BR area. Rivers would rise with the rainfall and strong southerly winds pushing water back. At least it would be moving faster at that point.

Lily hit as a CAT 1 but it had gotten up to a CAT 4 briefly at one point

we just need to watch that ridge over the weekend in central texas.
if it stays strong, be proactive and get ahead of the news.

Mitch better have a full armed PMC force guarding him if that thing hits like the Euro is showing.

Some of these models showing intensification up to Cat 4 before landfall in Texas.

most of the fricking coast.
when a storm makes landfall from south going north, the EAST side of the storm stacks a storm surge and pushed rain, while the WEST side has wind, but little rain and almost no surge and helps to alleviate potential flooding.
When a storm along the GOM coast approaches from a WEST to EAST and scrapes the coast like this model shows, there will be almost no reprieve that you normally experience due to the rotational structure of the storm.
Moreover, instead of riding onto land and losing access to energy, the Eastern side will have a longer time to access warm ,moist, gulf air.

pressure is still dropping in Harvey down to 977MB.

FWIW, the HWRF ran right before the Euro -
It follows the same exit scenario as the Euro, but the HWRF took Harvey 60 miles inland, and as a result, it isn't nearly as developed when it gets to the Sabine River.
The end game is starting to consolidate between the models. The biggest difference will be how far inland Harvey gets, if at all, and ultimately how strong it is entering LA.
