It was of the updated wind field. Seabrook Kemah area "could" see winds of 64 knots which is around 74 mph. Not good but a hell of alot better than the alternative a 100 miles down the road.

Isn't that a little (or lot) dramatic?

Are you further inland than your parents, I assume? I would definitely not let them ride that out in the location you showed if you can help it. I went through Harvey and speak from recent experience.
Thoughts and prayers to you and yours. I believe the Lord will be with you guys, but - at the same time - please be extremely careful.

My family lives in Dallas not far north of where the tornados tore through Preston Hollow last October. Winds there were 140 miles per hour and even driving through there as recently as this past weekend it is still recovering. Trees wiped out, roof and whole houses being rebuilt. Shopping center and schools still rebuilding.MAS444 said:

I'm in NW Houston.
yes, which is why every time someone cites Space City Weather as being science-driven I roll my eyes and chuckle.MAS444 said:

what effect do you think 15-20 foot storm surge would have on the refineries, etc, along the ship channel area?cmag said:I thought they were supposed to be "weather without the hype"MAS444 said:

1. Private Developers (speaking as one) already will volunteer sometimes to do that, cost isn't small but is a line item in budgets and you figure it out.cone said:
lol who going to fund all that digging
Looks like the NHC's projections are showing 3 - 9 feet of water possible, though some of the higher parts of the peninsula may not see any flooding, and that would not be exactly clean water either.cgh1999 said:
My parents live in lake Charles. Right in the middle of this peninsula of Prien Lake. They are about 30 minutes from my house right now. They were planning on riding this out, but the storm surge projections are no bueno.
For perspective, the casinos are about 2 miles north as the crow flies.
