will this still be a large diameter storm once in the GOM?

Crosses into Texas around Orange at hr 111.

didn't the euro had that a couple of days ago...before that the gfs last sunday nite sitting off the upper tx coast...hmmm, might be some validity to the gfs sniffing out long range loosing it in the mid and picking back in the short...time will tell...

Hr 129 near Paris and the Oklahoma border.

Well, isn't that special? Actually, it is quite the attention grabber.

Boy, you turn your head for a few hrs... This is an interesting storm that with bare watching.

Hi, Cisa

This is exactly why we say check back daily.

988mb? close to a cat 1? mets??

Boy, with the angle it's coming in at, wouldn't take much of a shift a hair further west and blammo. If this thing continues to struggle to get it's act together, not out of the question in my amateur opinion.

That would be a Catagory One Hurricane.

You're right. I'm really afraid for NOLA but starting to have an unsettle feeling even farther west. But we'll probably go to sleep and wake up to it going the other way. It kinda reminds me of Rita. Of course all this is subject to change. I guess this is why we all find weather so fascenating.

Very true...

For what it's worth, the Canadian suggests Houma/Morgan City...984mb...
