Thread: Harvey

Please pray for the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast in the path of this storm. Although we are on the far eastern side of the predicted landfall, we are looking at 12 to 18 inches of rain over the next few days.

Unfortunately like I feared the winds are catching up now with the pressure on #Harvey. This monster is now packing winds of 105 mph (Strong Cat 2) with the pressure as I type continuing to fall now at 968 mb which means it's continuing to strength. AGAIN I personally am not ruling out this becoming a Category 4 or 5 before making landfall and then stalling.

This satellite is one of the most ominous sites I have seen in the Gulf of Mexico for sometime now. I warn everyone who is considering staying along the immediate Texas Coast and all areas with MANDATORY evacuations in the direct path of this thing to GET OUT NOW... this is a KILLER. Storm surge along the coast will be life threatening on top of winds and flooding. PLEASE LISTEN TO ALL WATCHES AND WARNINGS FROM YOUR LOCAL AUTHORITIES.

No - we didn't flood.
Against all probability, we didn't get the rain predicted. Although on the Eastern Side, witch usually gets the worst of a hurricane, the wind, rain, and tornados of Harvey continues to lash Texas. They got hit hard.

Now we are sweating Irma. If she slides into the Gulf off the West coast of Florida, the tracks explode and all bets are off. She has been following scarily similar paths to Andrew and Katrina.

Pray.
