If this storm does not make that turn soon to remove most of any westerly component areas between Galveston and the border need to pay close attention, as does all of us that might receive any effects from Laura.
Yes I definitely see a WNW move now

I just went outside here in Atascocita to bring in Patio chairs and it seem very still and quiet and eerie , no birds and my neighbors dog did not even bark or come out his house. He normally comes running and barking at the gate.

Animals have a sixth sense. Maybe Laura will come much closer to Houston than forecasted. Definitely need to be prepared.

Outside all the frogs turned on at once for about 5 minutes and then all were suddenly silent.

Humans have this "sixth sense" too, just that the superior intelligence, civil structures (especially modern), etc prevent pure, sudden action in concert like one would witness with the animal populations (which are driven by pure instinct).

Definitely looking like on a more northward path now on Goes16. Wonder if that's just a wobble or an actual turn.

Hopefully it’s a nice jog N and it continues taking those jogs to the N every few hours. Everything points to this making landfall in extreme SW LA or TX/LA border. It would be an incredible adjustment if she were to come close to Bolivar.

Still need to keep our guards on high until she makes landfall. These squalls can pack a punch too so everyone should be prepared for possible hurricane force wind gust in these squall lines.
