That would be a good track for widespread rains in our area. Hopefully it slows down too.

Cpv17 looks like the ridge will keep it moving once its inland, probably a good 24 hours of heavy tropical rain before it continues west

Yeah. That’s what I’m fearing along with dry air limiting its moisture.

This system may end up being fairly compact, and with ridging to the north, even that track wouldn’t *guarantee solid rain area-wide. (Think Claudette ‘03).

Onshore flow + higher PWATS + less ridging locally all are still better than the current, setup either way.

Canadian into Corpus big shift north and more inline with the other globals now.

GFS brings it into the middle Texas coast around San Antonio Bay as an open wave.Though it is stronger with the vorticity and tries to close the low off.

Even though its selfish, to be on the safe side I would want a Matagorda Bay hit to be the furthest south a landfall occurs. But beggars cant be choosers LOL. 😄

6z GFS has the wave going towards the Baffin Bay/Corpus Christi area but it’s weak and has very little precip with it and we get crickets from it. 0z Euro also cut back on totals by a good bit.

Western Gulf of Mexico:
A broad area of low pressure could form in the central or western
Gulf of Mexico by the beginning of next week. Some slow development
of this system is possible thereafter as it moves westward and
approaches the western Gulf of Mexico coastline by the middle of
next week.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.
