Our building <Galleria area> has closed one of the main gates and is sand bagging today. The garage elevators are still out of service after the Memorial Day event.

My plan is to get up in the morning as usual, shower, get dressed and turn on the TV. That is what I did after the Memorial Day event, quickly decided it was best to stay home.

LOL!!! I just got that same email!!!
Do you work in the Galleria area also?

So check this out while we await Recon flight data..

Ironic similarities between this system and Tropical Storm Erin in 2007 which landed near Port Aransas.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_ ... %282007%29

"a Hurricane Hunters flight into the system reported a small circulation center, but at the time was not well-defined enough to result in the initiation of tropical cyclone advisories."

"The storm caused several bayous in the Houston area to reach or exceed flood levels"

Just to show how serious this can be, 21 fatalities from Erin and just 1 from the infamous Hurricane Humberto with minimal warning.

Quick thoughts: Been studying some long hi-res visible loops. The system has slowed. The shear has collapsed and it's building a nice anti-cyclone on top. You can see the cirrus starting to fan out on all sides with upper-level outflow setting-up. Pretty healthy looking tropical storm ramping-up. On water vapor, you can see it's in a large moist envelope and the dry air it ingested yesterday has dissipated. I would not be surprised if this made a run for hurricane status. The story will still be the rain.

Have they said if its a called storm?

I am seeing where it is being told that the storm will hit Matagorda Bay tomorrow morning at 4am.
How is this possible if there is no closed eye for a named storm? I am not a pro at this, just watching, reading and learning from this forum. I love in Canada, but my kids and heart is in Houston.

Thanks for all your help guys and girls.
