And if you look at the Five Day Atlantic Tropical Outlook map there's a chance another system could develop in the Gulf and move more moisture to Texas and Louisiana.

Ugh. Please no.

Yea, no thanks all the way around.

We haven't had a hurricane anything like this thing in a long time, now we could have another succession of them.

Noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poor people when it rains it pours, literally.

spacecityweather.com isn't worried about the blob in southern Gulf of Mexico (well not as much for Houston at least). Bookmark that site if you want the definitive information on Houston weather.

'17 could be a repeat performance....very nervous about Irma....I could see that thing passing over cuba and running straight up our arse by end of next week....

the entire southern coastline has been doused this year BEFORE Harvey....

if it enters the gulf, any strike from that girl will be disastrous for that region....would also overwhelm southern fla.....

Yup. That's what I was talking about, 12 years. It's been over a decade since that onslaught. YEB, did a commendable job.

Looks like it is heading toward PR/DR. We shall see. Cat 2.

Expected to become a major hurricane by tonight.

Yep, we will in a couple of days probable direction.

Here is an updated track, as I know everyone on the East Coast is concerned.

It's a good think climate change is a hoax.

Yeah record low level of hurricanes the last 12 years.

From @RyanMaue Twitter:



Luckily it appears that this one isn't going to approach Texas. If it achieves and maintains at least Cat2 on the majority of those eastern seaboard tracks, there's going to be trouble. The current saturation of the tracks looks like trouble is almost guaranteed

Perhaps but the most devastating once in history seem to have come in the last 10 years.

So while there may be fewer, they seem to be getting more damaging.

I'd love to see the backup on this one.

By my count, 8 of the 16 cat 5 hurricanes have been after 2000 going back to the 60s
