Suppose to hit Cancun tonight as at least a Cat 4. Bad situation for those folks.

Well, Beaumont has “Tropical Storm Conditions” possible for Friday now on our NWS LC forecast. Have bot been liking the trend yesterday and this morning so far. I cant handle anymore. Pray he/she goes poof.

Sheesh Delta is going crazy down there.

BOSTWICK seemed almost concrete that it would not be more than a little gusty wind a rain shower or two...I hope he is right...hate for our friends next door as they may very well get another bruising.

Looks like euro curves this thing just in time to miss Texas but lake Charles east is in the crosshairs

Delta has intensified by 70 mph (from 40 mph to 110 mph) in its first 24 hours since becoming a named storm. This is the most intensification in a 24 hour period for an October Atlantic named storm since Wilma in 2005. #hurricane pic.twitter.com/Dc5EkZpFSj

You don't **** around with Gulf hurricanes. It's still bath water out there.

All Delta will do here is ruin the streak of beautiful weather for hot sticky days. Welp.

[DoctorMu]

Euro offering a repeat of Hurricane Sally. GFS and Canadian just a bit farther east.

Goodnight Nurse...man oh man...the RI is incredible...

[Tx2005]

Ugh, here we go again. Another week of model watching.

[Cromagnum]

Someone better call up Chuck Norris to deal with this damned thing.

[djmike]

Once again this year, I dont feel comfortable here in Beaumont with Delta. WE are definitely in the cone now...

[Scott747]

12z GFS is a little further w into the Gulf but mainly because it's a little faster. Trough is still there enough to save the upper Texas coast with the golden triangle on the fringe.

Euro remains a western outlier, for now.

Ugh, here we go again. Another week of model watching.

I wouldn't be too concerned for SE Texas right now. A check in to the NHC or the forums once a day will probably be good enough. We are at the point in the hurricane season that models usually overestimate ridging and begin that turn to the NE too late. Based on the synoptic features present late this week it would be really hard to get a direct landfall to SE Texas. Even the ECMWF ensembles have the majority east of the border (and that is the most west model set). Obviously still, something to watch locally, but the chances remain low.

Bastardi said he feels like the euro is on to something we shall see

Where do you see Bastardi's updates?

[Stormlover2020]

It’s on his premium that u have to pay for, he said euro been west bias all year but he feels it’s on to something with ridge and said ridge looks about right compared to other models and euro might be latching on to something that the other models aren’t
