Meteorology must be the easiest degree plan at A&M because we always have 20-30 post on here when bad weather approaches.
I work in Spring ISD. Will I get the week off?
lol yeah there are a lot of armchair meteorologists. I mostly follow it as a hobby now despite my background in it.98Ag99Grad said:

English teacher?
Prognosis: negative.
Texags also has lots of world-class culinary experts, political scientists, football coaches, and guys that date international supermodels.98Ag99Grad said:

Ok, I have question for the group:
Wife is supposed to travel to Dallas and return tomorrow. She could catch a flight returning to Houston tomorrow at 5:00 pm, but could also take the Von Lane bus getting back to town tomorrow night at 9:30 pm.
Would anyone here let their significant other make either of those travel arrangements? Or is the rain not supposed to really hit until Saturday?

I wouldn't say a lot. There's only three of us at our annual get together.
If those are the two choices, take a flight back at 5:00pm. There are hotels to stay in at the airport if there is heavy rain and the plane will be diverted if there is any danger. Being on a bus really limits the choices you can make if things get dicey. But I wouldn't make that trip tomorrow.MASAXET said:

Houston will be fine at 5pm tomorrow.
katy is out of water and bleach already.
what about 7 AM Sun? will roads still be passable?
How can something be expected to be something other than what it is expected to be?Quote:
Harvey is supposed to be much worse than expected,
5pm tomorrow should still be fine for us, from everything I've read.MASAXET said:

I am more worried about the traffic nightmare if the evacuation is similar to Rita

If Houston floods like NOLA after Katrina, will the Katrinians leave?
Spreadsheet, my understanding is nothing flooded in Huntwick during Allison.
Now an oak tree fell on my garage during Ike and we were out of the house for 7 weeks but we were dry.

How does the compare to the annual Memorial Day floods?
So now it's Harvey is Hurricane Harvey. Most interesting is its current heading is 335 degrees (NNW).
potentially much much worse
FWIW, Alvin got between 45-50 in. of rain in, I believe, 1979, from one tropical storm.Sid said:NAP Violator said:It's never happened in recorded history, but then nothing about this storm is traditional or regular. If this has a worst case scenario, 50 inches may be possible in some areas. A tropical storm parking itself for 5 days over an area like what this storm may do will be catastrophic and would shatter rainfall records. A widespread 3 to 4 feet of rainfall with isolate areas over 4 feet is simply unprecedented. This could be a 10,000 year flood event if the worst case scenario happens.CDUB98 said:Seriously?

At least used to be a US record.

Yeah she ain't flying back. Tell her to stay there
What is there to be nervous about? Either it is safe to fly and she makes it or she is delayed. Have a drink, the weather is out of your control.aggieZephyr said:

very likely it just gets canceled
Nervous about what? Her flight will most likely get cancelled, and she'll ride the storm out in Florida.aggieZephyr said:

Good call. I reckon it'll pan out. More or less concerned about the flooding from ITL to BushBondag said:If its inevitable, relax and enjoy it.WES2006AG said:What is there to be nervous about?
