The storm was supposed to move ashore a 100 miles or so, IF THAT, and stall for up to two days. In the meantime, we were supposed to be getting lashed with intense rainfall, which so far has happened to the SW and far EAST (LA) of us. Once the storm began moving again it was supposed to loop slowly and move along 59 towards Houston and stall for a day or so. Then move either to Louisiana or north Texas. Another scenario that they were pushing is that it would re-enter the Gulf and slowly inch up the coast regaining Hurricane strength before making another landfall in LA.

With this new potential track putting it NW into SA/ATX, the strongest feeder bands are being pulled into the western/SW suburbs of the Houston Metro and the huge swath of moisture to the east will miss us entirely as it would hit Lufkin. If that track holds the biggest threat of rain would be whatever comes ashore tonight. If the storm keeps going NW and doesn't stop they have blown the entire forecast.
I hope so cause this shyt sucks

Weather cacs were predicting (hoping) for an Allison like event (storm moves ashore, stalls, and then moves BACKWARD over a large population) but with a Hurricane. Now some of the models are saying the storm is just going to come ashore and keep going west northwest. Weather cac fanboys are trying to cover for them by saying it was never certain where the storm was going and you shouldn't listen to the models at this point. Though the models were gospel when it was predicting this thing would hang over Houston until next Friday.
