Quote HistoryQuoted: Thank god, after 24 hours of the track not moving, in the 4am update it moved half way from my house to Houston, a pretty big leap east. If it moved that much in 3 hours it will probably keep moving. Sucks for the Houston people, though. Where are you seeing that? National hurricane center still has the same track and impact as before. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: With the 1:00am update the track hasn't shifted at all. I suspect they're just not bothering. But read the words. "Overnight model guidance has shifted to the right (east) and so has the NHC track with landfall around Matagorda and some additional slight rightward track adjustments may be needed today." "Beryl is starting to move into more favorable conditions for development and if/when an inner core forms…more rapid intensification will be possible. There remains the potential for fairly significant intensification of Beryl in the last 12 hours prior to landfall and the SHIPS intensity forecast is 2-3 times above climatology for the possibility of rapid intensification. The NHC forecast has Beryl making landfall at 85mph…but this could be stronger and preparations should be made for a possible landfall in the range of 85-100mph. " "Widespread power outages are now likely over a large part of the area on Monday…be prepared for extended outages. " They're saying it's going to be stronger and closer to Houston than currently indicated. |

Conroe / North Houston here checking in.
went to HEB at 6am when they opened today and they had plenty of everything. filled up a couple gas cans just for the sake of it and am now "prepped". I expect a few inches of rain and maybe 50 mile per hour winds but you never really know what will pop up in the bands. having a hurricane / TS swing right by you is always a little unnerving. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I’m in Katy and I just hope the power stays on. We are supposed to go on vacation in MS on Tuesday, leaving the dog and cats here for a neighbor to check on. If the power is out I don’t plan on leaving until it is. I’ll have some disappointed kids if we can’t go. My brother’s in Katy, too. He’s supposed to head here with his family on Thursday. He’s in the same boat with his dogs. |

Now we are thinking if the power is out, maybe the owner of the house we rented would make an exception to “No Pets” and let us bring them. Maybe put down a deposit. Worth a shot! It will be annoying hearing the cats whine for 6-1/2 hours. |

Noted that the original Euro models had it hitting Mexico eventually, while the GFS had it hitting a bit north, near Padre, then immediately moving North to Corpus. Which is weird, and the Euro model has usually been superior, so I ignored it. All this is to say, the Euro model has it hitting Matagorda now, at like 989mb. High TS, Cat1. The HWRF model, OTOH, has it hitting slightly East of Matagorda, but at 960mb. That's good Cat 2, but the model is listing max 97 knots for wind. Probably sustained 115 mph. (Link 'should' take you to that model run.) Bit of a discrepancy. Surge is predicted max ~6-8'. It's just not that big of a storm. Still annoying for Houston/Galveston, but bullet dodged for Padre and maybe Corpus. |

One of the neighbors paid these kids per duck to find all his decoys. The FB posts asking who these pillow/shoes/random decor items belonged to were kind of amusing as well.   We rebuilt after Ike and Harvey. If we flood again we'll be walking away. |

I live directly on Galveston Bay.
I've trimmed a tree, thrown most of the trimmed branches in the garage, moved a bunch of patio chairs and tables inside and am almost done boarding the windows. I have a bit more to go. Amazon shows they are going to deliver a package I ordered today before 6:45pm. Damn. That's serious commitment. The post office creed never mentioned tropical weather. Not sure the delivery is wise. |
