I too thought it was turning West, well at least that’s what the reports said his afternoon. It does have some convection going off near the center now. I’m just curious what it will do when it actually starts the westward movement.

There's definitely a circulation, but storms are struggling to find the center.

Looks like life is forming in the center. How long that lasts? Anyone’s guess..

As Andrew hinted at, this is not uncommon. I don’t think we are going to wake-up to a naked swirl. It’s going to pulse up and down until it (if) gets established.

That first blowup was to the NW of the center. This latest one is right over the coc.

It's actually moving to the wnw now and maintaining pressure. Looks like there will be one more fix by recon and will give an idea if there is anything to this latest burst.

It’s gotta be really cool to be flying in there and witnessing these explosions of convection.. I’d love to have a chance to just sit in a corner on one of those missions and just watch the entire process.

Blowing up and major lightning closer to the center. Rumors of Beta's demise have been greatly exaggerated...

Nocturnal core rainfall .. looks like a good setup for it no? With the center very near downtown?

@NWSHouston
Minor/Moderate Coastal flooding is currently ongoing!

The tide gauge at Galveston Railroad Bridge has seen water levels at 2.93ft above MHHW this morning - the highest water level this site has ever reported!

It should be noted this gauge has only been around since 2012. #GLSwx
