Oh Lord please wipe that shit hole off the face of the Earth.

Technically yes, but too much water is a thing.

Texas hasn't had a Hurricane hit land since 2008, we've been due for one

Oh shit!
Well I wish you guys good luck and stay safe.

>>138785627
Fuck off fag, this shit is expected to develop into a Hurricane very quickly and bring upwards of 6 to 20 feet of rain in areas
>>
>>138784237
It's literally fucking nothing. Remember all the hype for "Hurricane Matthew" last year, and how it was supposed to destroy a large chunk of the Florida coast? And then it barely made contact.

Notice how there have been no more truly destructive storms in the US for years? Sandy was barely a hurricane at landfall. The last bad one was Ike. Since then, weather modification technology has improved. Expect this storm to be zapped and lose most of its strength before it approaches land.
>>
>>138785650
Unfortunately Austin is in Travis County.

Yes, I am talking about storm surges

I actually spoke to someone in the path of the storm a couple hours ago. Even tough old gun toting Texans seem legitimately worried about this one.

m8 20ft of storm surge is katrina level. You'd either need to have very low barometric pressure or high winds and this storms hasn't spent enough time in the gulf to do that. The people most at risk are barrier island residents since they are actually surrounded by the water that will become the storm surge.

I lived in Florida all my life and have lived in Texas about 5 years. These people don't know hurricanes, granted a lot of homes are built out of fucking wood. I was really impressed with their construction speed. It probably helps that inspectors in Florida are all corrupt as shit.

Probably take it to a relatives but they're all in warning areas as well.

That's like making Happening thread, that never happens
>>
Current IR loop looks solid as diurnal max approaches. You can see the LLC well underneath the deepest convection which continues to reform. Once the shear completely relaxes by tomorrow night this thing should explode, and the models are responding accordingly. The 18z HWRF deepens Harvey down to sub 960mb prior to landfall.

So basically, shit could hit the fan?

New advisory says recon hasn't found stronger winds, but pressure is down to 1003mb.
>>
>>138785236
I'm in corpus too anon, still hoping it turns and hits Houston
>>
>>138790406
It makes highway control easier, can have national guard on alert, mobilize emergency services to move rescue crews...
Employ Feds if needed
By law, can't do that without disaster. Easier to preplan and cancel than wait for "you're doing a helluva job brownie" to do it.

That said...
It isn't even a tropical storm yet.
It may hit between Brownsville and Corpus, all the way east to Beaumont...or not at all.
Anyone who is freaking out...is a freak,

>>138784237
Keep your head down and your powder dry.

me too anon, lets go make offerings in the shitty fucking bay

>>138785627
People like you who can't differentiate between personal experiences and unrelated scenarios are so insufferable. Yes, no shit Florida has experience with multiple hurricanes a year but for another state that isn't properly prepared its a big deal. It's like when a freak snowstorm causes problems for a southern state and people who live in Minnesota of wherever honk about how x feet of snow is nothing, because they're too retarded to understand that just because they can handle a blizzard doesn't mean everywhere else can as well.

NHC did mention in it's advisory that the center was moving in an erratic way. Depending on how long this lasts, it could provide Harvey with more time to organize.
>>
>>138793612
This. Fags ITT gotta remember that Texas hasn't had a Hurricane touch land since 2008, our infrustructure is shitty, out of date, or in perpetual construction

If you don't believe me, look up the shit shows that were our recent water crisises
