August 2020:
The cone of uncertainty is only 233 miles wide. One small swing one way or the other would have large implications. It's current wind field is 260 miles. I know that it can expand or decrease it's wind field as it strengthens.

I wouldn't worry about shutters/boarding up, either. Our windows held up just find during Ike in Friendswood with no protection. Rita came in at the LA/TX border, and all I remember experiencing was a breeze.Kingwood36 wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 11:49 am If it hits near the border the effects here would be minimal and no need to leave or put shutters up right? Maybe some wind and a little rain
Then you’ve answered your question on whether to board up.

Im guessing that unless 12z Euro comes way west, they wont move the track at 4pm.
Also does it seem like the Euro is running a little late or is it just me?

After the recon fixes there doesn't appear to be a real relocation, though the fixes were a little scattered. Looks a shade to the w of the latest track but not enough to have significant impact.

Certainly possible, but even small adjustments now, I believe, could have significant impacts down the road - EPS range illustrates it to some extent.
And the 12z Euro is running.

Unfortunately, idk if wxman57 really visits this board much anymore. He does drop by on storm2k on occasion but I don't think he has really given many thoughts about Laura lately.AtascocitaWX wrote: ↑Mon Aug 24, 2020 1:10 pm Would really like wxman 57 opinion on Laura right about now.
