Latest visible imagery shows that Lee is very near the Coast along the Cameron/Vermillion Parish line. If you look closely, you can see the two vorts are very close together...

NAM model for Lee. An interesting one. NAM has handled Lee well.

Is that even possible? Wouldn't the ridge have to build back in REALLY strong for that to happen?Ptarmigan wrote:NAM model for Lee. An interesting one. NAM has handled Lee well.

Baytown is also getting some nice strong wind gusts from Tropical Storm Lee, as well. There were two breif yet nice rain showers earlier as well.

If the NAM happens it will be nothing short of a miracle....

I'm suprised how far west the clouds/rain have gotten. It's cloudy with dark skies in the east and it looks like the system isn't done making westerly progress yet...

Defiantly a western progression over the past couple of hours. Lets see how long it can continue.... SO CLOSE!
