We’ve really been lucky here, especially considering we’ve never had to deal with a Cat 4 or 5 riding up through Freeport/Matagorda, putting the city on the worst side of it.

Unfortunately me in Beaumont hasnt dodged that bullet and any further west, I will be in the eye. AGAIN!! Just got back from doing last minute errands and preps and its a madhouse out there. Lines for gas. Now limiting how many customers in stores. Issuing out water, gas can, generators. Traffic on I-10 is at a stand still here. Reminds me of the chaos before rita and the doom and gloom before Ike. Currently not a good feeling. With Harvey/Imelda PTSD, My nerves are already shot. Today we are looking around thinking enjoy the electricity as much as possible. Cook a good meal. Enjoy the luxuries cause it about to all come to an abrupt end. Praying no more shifts west. Went through eye of Rita and Ike. Not fun!!

Glad we left this morning, and I feel your pain. I'm in Lakeway at in laws and I'm researching property as we speak. I'm SO tired of living year to year i S.E. Tx.....it's just a different place now....just not worth it.

“There are some clues that the atmosphere is giving us...so just like what’s going on right now in the atmosphere, this storm is going to follow that same pattern. So that gives us some clues as to why we think it’s going to take that right hand turn and possibly move a little bit more to the east and not to the west.”

Ah, Lakeway, good, common sense, citizenry... unlike most urban areas in 2020.

As for Laura, I still have a hunch the models are undergoing the ridging in the SE.

That is going to be the scariest part of this system in my eyes is when that WNW/NW movement changes to a NNW/N movement.
