That water along the upper Texas coast is superheated, about 88-89° F. Even though that thing is near landfall, it wouldn't surprise me if it strengthens to a H-1. That's been the trend the past 10-15 years.

Zack Fradella called this two days ago. He’s the fricking man with tropical weather.

Remember how fast Harvey ramped up right off shore?

Shear will limit this one though. It might get to Cat 1 but no more

Going to be a nail-biter for Houston tonight. The latest HRRR shows over 20" just to the SW towards Bay City. The HREF shows generally 8-10" but there is a cluster of members pushing 20". Most other guidance is less aggressive but we will get one more cycle of model runs before the main push occurs for Houston. Then the focus will turn to S. LA, with the current track being somewhat concerning. That area of the Florida Parishes is known for nocturnal tropical rain bombs.

It’s been moving NNE and was predicted to but the coast runs NE so it’s still going to go inland

CORRECTION: we posted these numbers with the same math error as Zeta. We can divide these by 3.28 with a peak surge just over 2 feet down off western tip of East Matagorda Bay. More in line with expectations
