His intro is important to because there was a ton of talk about the met pros really questioning what the NHC was doing.

I will not lie. (We never do, and that's a promise you can bank on). When the National Hurricane Center issued its updated track forecast at 10 am CT this morning I had my doubts. Forecasters there seemed too conservative in not moving the track of Laura closer to Houston, as that is where a lot of the model data indicated it would go. However, in going over all of the just released data from 12z models, their track forecast (shown below) now looks pretty good. So, kudos to the pros in Miami.

Don't you mean the amateurs questioning the met pros?

Amateurs sure.

But as Eric said, even he didn't understand the reasoning for keeping things to the east of here, especially with the UKMET model hanging out over Texas.

Right now its pretty low. At least we know about this one. Alicia is the one I'll always remember. Went to bed one night to wake up to a Cat 3 beating on the door the following morning. Think we had less than 24 hours to prepare. Of course it hit at night, going outside about 1 in the morning to look at the stars with my Dad durring the eye comming over was cool.

My grandad, from Lott, Tx, pronounced it "Muhair". Only way I've ever known to say it.
And now, back to the coronacanes...

Family in the Corsicana area all pronounce it "Muh-hay-uh".

Seems like the City could put out some guidance on this and put it to bed.

I guess I know what I will be doing after work today.. I was hoping to not have to leave Sulphur, but with a pregnant wife, I don't think I have much choice. I hate having to evacuate.

I have cousins from Mexia and it's pronounced like the Corsicana people say it.

Figured more people on TexAgs would know to properly pronounce where Anna Nicole Smith is from.

If we get hit with this thing I blame the people down the street who had their roof replaced without a hurricane in the middle of hurricane season.

So if it goes to TX/LA border what are we looking at effects felt here?

Guessing not much being on the west side of it. Maybe some wind and a few showers?

Depends on strength and speed of movement really. Bigger more powerful slow moving storm more effects. Smaller gets in and out less.

Yes. Not sure where the Twitter got its graph from, but what I posted is what the euro is showing on its newest run.

Maybe not even that...unless it's a monster size-wise like Ike was (think it's TS diameter was over 400 miles). When Rita, which wasn't tiny, smacked Beaumont I didn't even get drizzle in west Houston.

They take the operational model and apply tweaks to conditions to simulate what would happen if there were a bunch of slightly different scenarios. Those are the ensembles and the black line is the average of all of those. As far as the colors go, that's pressure of the storm. Lower number = stronger. Most of the green (weak storm) veers right. Stronger ones go further left.

They take the worst case scenario out of 100 model runs of the euro then try to make it into fact. Thats why I stay very clear Twitter. Not saying they are wrong, because no one really knows right now and its pretty off of every other thing out there.

But if you want to really make a name for yourself, you need to pick the low probability option and hope if it pans out. Then you're instantly a name and can converge back to the center with a much bigger audience.
