I feel for all you soggy folks, but I'm hoping we can wring something out of this system up here in SW Washington county. I've probably received less than 1" since July 4. The cells just keep missing us. I wasn't here for the 2011 drought, but I've never seen our ponds so low.

FWIW..CMC takes Issac into the TX/MX border....
ICON moves Issac into the Gulf moving NW near the Louisiana coast as a 969mb Hurricane....

Looks like we are get the first heavy outer band of 95 here in beaumont!! It’s pouring! Gusty winds too! Weird this band is completely different than the storms weve had all week. Thisone feels truly tropical with the gusts and reminds me of Harvey or Ike when the first bands came ashore. There truly is a difference in the feel from a regular pop up storm compared to a storm associated with a tropical system.

Hello folks...new to your forum as a poster but been lurking as a guest for a long time. I am a weather loving guy! I think atmospheric science is very interesting to follow and attempt to understand as an amature. I love that you pros take the time to explain and paint a picture that the amature can understand and then explain further if needed. WITH THAT SAID...is this gulf system going to be a sheared system with the rain to the north and East?

Hi crashwx - thanks for jumping on board and making an account! You've definitely come to the right place for your love with the weather. As to the answer to your question -- this won't be a complete lopsided/sheared storm like we usually see from Tropical Storms or low end Cat 1 Hurricane that we would maybe see early in the season. With that said though, most of the concentrated rainfall will remain around the area of low pressure, but as you can probably see from Water Vapor or Visible, there is a lot of moisture well extended from the center to the east and north. Because this came into the Gulf as a wave axis and has yet to get its act together, it should remain pretty broad unless it were to strengthen significantly in the next 24 hours... which is looking very doubtful.

I received 1.50" overnight. The chance for tropical development continues to decrease and is down to 30%. Expect improving weather by Sunday as the disturbance continues to move away from SE TX.
