the 4pm CST update on Harvey thinks rather than heading NE from Corpus to Austin area it will actually hug the coastline up toward Houston/Galveston. That's good for me in Austin but for y'all in Houston that's not good. Likelihood is that if it does that it will remain a slow moving strong tropical storm and there will be a lot more rain in your area than originally thought.

So, one of the meteorologists on the Weather Channel just described Hurricane Harvey as a nightmare scenario or something.

:sofa:
"RAINFALL: Harvey is expected to produce total rain accumulations
of 15 to 25 inches and isolated maximum amounts of 35 inches over
the middle and upper Texas coast through next Wednesday.
During the
same time period Harvey is expected to produce total rain
accumulations of 7 to 15 inches in far south Texas and the Texas
Hill Country over through central and southwest Louisiana, with
accumulations of up to 7 inches extending into other parts of Texas
and the lower Mississippi Valley. Rainfall from Harvey may cause
devastating and life-threatening flooding."


It's looking pretty bad out there. Hope everyone is safe.

that would disrupt requesters. what's really going on down there, you guys think they're exxagerating? or it's hard to tell yet?
Hurricane models aren't sure where it's going and the Nat'l Hurricane Center keeps upping their rain forecast totals for the region. I went out and bought a few more supplies just in case.

From a work perspective, most universities in this region have announced closures as of noon/1pm tomorrow, and schools are already closing Monday. I'd expect requester/prolific output to be slower from everyone in TX/LA/MS/AR and who knows where else until this is over.

TYVM. stay safe. eat all your fridge and freezer stuff first in case power goes out. all of you need a special potato battery so you can still be the forum if you don't have electricity.
