    I'd be making preparations now in Victoria. Likely have a Major Hurricane right at your door step Saturday. Cat 3 could very well be low end potential for Harvey based on trends today.

      NO! Legit flooding still LIKELY here in Houston area. That has not, and probably will not change.

        Dont bet on it.

        We are on the dirty side of this beast. Where the majority of the rainfall occurs.

            Our house in Rockport in on the water. About 7' above sea level, but this could be really bad.

Even with gennys going, I stlll lost thousands of dollars worth of venison and fish... That ain't happening to me again. I also was in Kingwood in '94 and 2001 when we had feet, not inches of water in the gym at Kingwood high school.... There's less run-off capability in the area now than back then, so GOOD LUCK! ...and NONE of those events were close to what the predictions are for this storm...


              I hope your macho don't get you (and your family) in serious trouble.

              I'm not in Kingwood any longer, but I promise you I'll be as prepared as I can be for anything that comes along...
              where did you move to?

                  Another thing that scares me a bit is a lot of these storms seem to make a slight turn to the north prior to landfall.

                  Even today some models have shifted from Corpus to POC. It wouldn't take much of a shift to the north-east for this thing to be heading right for Galveston.

                          Looks like it moved East a bit.

                          My family is in Corpus so naturally hoping they dont get centerpunched but don't want TBHers getting it either.

                            The variations in all these models is crazy. Still no one knows exactly where its going to make landfall and what it is going to do after that.

                              Even though i find this a stunning image, its not what i wanted to see in regards to Harvey. He does not look like a Cat 1. Once eyewall tightens up a bit more, pressure is going to drop fast, and winds come up. Still cant believe the difference in 12 hours with this storm..

                                The really crazy thing is where it goes after SUNDAY! If it gets back over water as predicted, Galveston may be in for a serious landfall event Tuesday.
