10am update...STILL MOVING NORTH at 13mph.
Track seems a little nudge west. Delta is awfully close to the border to still be moving NORTH.
We need that NE like now or us in Beaumont might get an uptick in winds!

I mentioned this yesterday that it depends on how pronounced the ne turn would be on any affects to the Golden triangle. Some of the models had started delaying the turn by about 6 hrs. The track actually had a decent shift w being this close to landfall and is closer to Creole again.

Delta is moving straight north for now. With the curvature of the coast and a fairly large eye, that eyewall will move close to the TX coast before landfall.

Trough/shear is going to cut us off from the rain in CLL.

I think Jason will see some rain before 3 pm.

So far it’s just spitting at me. We’ll see..

At least I got my run in.

Just started heavy in Beaumont on that band. Pretty gusty winds with this band. Might be a little training going on too.

It's already shifting east, although it's going to be interesting to see how pronounced that shift is before landfall.

Thought the trough was supposed to “enhance” rainfall over inland areas today. What happened to that idea?

The center of storms wobble around often before landfall. The overall movement is north. You will see it look like it goes east or west of you stare at satellite/radar for hours.

Last few center fixes are on the west side of the track FWIW. It will likely wobble to the east over the next few hours

It's certainly not moving to the ne yet. Recon just made a fix at 93.8

Jeff Lindner doesn’t think the rain shield will expand any further west than what it currently being observed. So basically everyone not getting rain will likely not get anything other than maybe some drizzle here and there.

Right now the large CoC/eye is closer to Galveston than the LATX border. Even with a turn NNE there will be impacts on the TX Gulf coast

Yeah, its just east of the 288 corridor. Pretty good yellow/orange returns on radar evaporate as it approaches me. I've only got a drizzle all morning.
