If Laura hits from Chambers county or points west of their metro Houston could receive hurricane force winds. As that would bring the core into the metro area,especially those along and east of I-45.
My prediction is High Island.

So I'm getting a better feel for why they have stuck with a border track and hasn't been coming up. 0z Ukie ensemble mean was over the border like the operational GFS ensembles. Heavy weight with the two influences the track.

intermediate advisories only have current position changes, not track changes

Thanks, my eyes have essentially been crossed starring at these things for the past several days. :lol:

I would have to think the track will adjust west at 5pm considering the 12z Euro just showed Galveston bay according to s2k. Still waiting on tropicaltidbits to update

Only 24-hours in, but ridging is a touch stronger, Texas trough is weaker... may be further west.

Went to the local Walmart to buy an air mattress in case I need to camp in the Jeep if the power goes out. Walmart slammed, every register open and still huge lines.

Near Port Arthur. It is stronger than the 00Z run. In the 930's for pressure. That's conducive for Cat 4.

A bit of a relieve to see some of the models shift back to the border! I hope it keeps.
