So, are we on the upper Texas coast in the clear? Is it possible the track shifts back toward us or is it a done deal that it's not making landfall along our coastline?

Thanks for all the input. We are currently in Gulf Shores, AL for a baseball tournament but Houston is home. I will be watching the boards very carefully to see how Debby is going to effect the gulf coast.

I'm wondering if it's just going to sit out there and blow itself apart. The good thing is that Florida had needed the rain although Im not sure the wanted as much as they're getting all at once. If not this storm for us, the season is early. Maybe we'll get an nice TD in a couple of weeks. That would be nice...rain and less heat with no bite. No that's wishcasting.
No rain, no rainbows.

A shame... I feel like a kid in a candy store who has a real mean mother. Our pros, amateurs, and our best models got this one wrong. It just shows how fickle weather can be. Not to totally give up though.. Not until she is gone, gone, gone.
Anyway! Geez! Speaking of a Debby Downer.

What an absolute bummer! This storm is still moving N/NE. Not even sure if LA will see this. Debby sure is close to Florida, looks like GFS was right all along, whether it was having feedback issues or not.

Oh well, we're still in June. We still have a good five months of tropical concerns here for the Gulf Coast.

Well I must say, I am done with Debby. What a crock.
I see nothing that is going to change what it going on right now. Sprinklers 101.
Next!

Doesn't surprise me. Too far to the north right now for the High to pick it up and start steering it West. Seems like there is no doubt that trough will pick Debby up and send it East. I'm sure at 4:00, NHC will have the track toward Florida.

Sprinklers and a/c with power! At least we have this in the 100 degree heat while those folks in Florida will be dealing with wind, rain and probably no power when its all done.

Think folks it is only 6/24 we 3 to 4 more months of this!!!!!!

:?: Hi folks. This may be a stupid question as I dont know how to read these models that well, but what about the couple of models that still show extreme SETX/SWLA (I think HWRF and BAM)? Do we just disregard those? Thanks! Trying to learn here...

Actually there may be. Somewhere around the very end of the month of June/first week of July. But we'll save that for a later date and probably begin talking about it in a day or two when we fully get Debby out of our hair... ;)

BAM-definitely disregard it.
HWRF-not too reliable either. Not enough to even give a second thought if the model run still showed SE TX as a landfall.

The 12z Euro does hint at the possible stall and westward scenario that we mentioned earlier.

Although I use 'hint' very lightly.

Ah. I see....Thanks Belmer. I was holding on to that "last" little bit of hope for some rain here in Tx. I guess it's best I just let 'er go....Gosh it's soooo hard to break up! :cry: Goodbye little Debbie!

I agree! I went to bed around 2 this morning bummed out because of what the models showed, but I also went to bed hopeful that I would wake up this morning with a few surprises. Unfortunately, the surprises I woke up with are not what I wanted to see. So I'm still bummed out. But we just have to move on like we did with our crazy winter we just had and all the wish casting. I'm sure this won't be the last time we have another "Debby" storm scenario!
