    Tropical Weather Threat For Texas

    This is a continuation off of John Paul's "Weather Guru's" Thread. I believe now is the time to make preparations along the Texas coastline and also for people inland because of the magnitude of the possibility of a destructive rainfall event.

        Thanks for starting a new thread, Johnny. This is going to come relatively quick for everyone.

          As a few others have mentioned, this one will take many of people off guard. This isn't a long tracked Cape Verde system that we can watch for a week or so. The model consensus time frame starts bringing effects from a resurrected Harvey onshore this Friday/Saturday.

          The GFS for two runs in a row now shows a major hurricane smashing the Texas coast around the Sargeant area as does the UKMET model. Hopefully the intensity is wrong in these models.

          The ECMWF has a strong tropical storm approaching the SoTex coast then it kind of just rides up the entire Texas coast!

          The bottom line is, it's time to prepare. I say this for not just people along the coast but for others well inland because a good handful of models show a catastrophic event with this system. More on who gets what as the day unfolds.

            Just in time for our fishing tournament in POC

            Do you think this first disturbance will turn into something later this week?

              It's great to fantasize about a good rain in South Texas until it starts to get scary for everyone else, darn it.

                      Where is projected landfall? And when? And names of storm? Thanks for any info it's appreciated.

                        The HWRF model was the last big model hanging back with a landfall in northern Mexico. It now has a strong hurricane coming ashore East of Corpus.

                            Any flooding threats for Marble Falls / lake Buchanan? We will be on the lake with the RV.

                              Projected landfall is not exact just yet but models are keying in from just West of Corpus to Galveston. That should be narrowed down a little as the day goes on and into tomorrow morning. This one was already named Harvey but weakened into a wave over the Caribbean. It will remain Harvey if it is named again.

                              Time frame for coming ashore will be Friday/Saturday.
