Center sure seems North of all these models and tracks. Though it was supposed to start turning West not going North


I think the heavy sheer is blowing everything to the northeast side. The NHC still says its moving WNW

It feels badass outside right now. Wish we could enjoy more weather like this.

Edit:

Looks like it may come ashore closer to us and keep us in the dirty side for almost 3 days.

Latest track takes it slightly further inland and broadens the rain changes. Wind gusts tomorrow may get up there towards the coast, but out along 290 it doesn't look like this will be much of a thing.

Amazed at the north winds staying strong. Another beautiful day.

Its always hard to predict rain. One zip code could get a foot and the next one could only get a couple inches. Depends who gets a train ran on them.

Wind gust of 105? Where are they getting that from?

Beautiful cool and clear fall day in Shepherd Park Plaza Houston until 11am. Now cloudy and raining since.

Still cool though.

Went to the arboretum this morning and walked around for about an hour and didn't even come close to breaking a sweat. Can't remember the last time that's happened. It started raining just as we got back to the car.

Space City guys are holding steady.

2:30 pm CT Sunday: Our post this morning was sour on Beta. Maybe we trash talked it too much. I don't know. What I do know is that it looks much healthier than I expected 5 to 6 hours ago, and it's conceivable that Beta is at least making an attempt to form into a hurricane temporarily. We still feel that despite the changes in the near-term, the overall forecast ideas we presented earlier today still hold.
...
NOAA has updated their rainfall forecast for the event total, and they have indeed brought values down a little bit further. It looks like they shaved off about 1 inch in Houston to as much as 3 or 4 inches Galveston. Granted, some rain has already fallen, but not as much as has been removed. So, some good news there.

NHC didn't seem all that impressed...

Quote:

After a short-lived intense burst of deep convection a couple of
hours ago, which helped to spin up a mid-level eye feature in radar
imagery, Beta's convection has waned somewhat and the eye feature
has become less distinct. Doppler velocity values of 60-65 kt
between 15,000-20,000 ft were noted when the vortex column looked
its best, but that spin up of the circulation also generated a
significant amount of dry air entrainment that is now evident by a
pronounced slot wrapping into the center from the north and
northeast, which has likely caused the recent decrease in the
inner-core convection. An Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft
was investigating Beta during the time of the aforementioned
convective burst, and the low-level center was located about 18-20
nmi east of the radar eye feature, and the surface dropsonde
measured west winds of 39 kt beneath the calm 850-mb center. These
data indicate that vortex column possesses a significant amount of
vertical tilt, which is not suggestive of an intensifying tropical
cyclone. The aircraft found that the central pressure has remained
at around 996 mb and also measured an 850-mb flight-level maximum
wind of 60 kt, thus the initial intensity is being held at 50 kt.

Storm is living up to its name, and look at all these stars on the wrong post!

And yes, I need a charge.

While I agree this storm isn't a big deal...it hasn't really started yet either

Were we supposed to get a ton of rain today? I'm just thrilled it's kept the temps in the low 70s.

I remember people calling Harvey a nothingburger after it came ashore also.
