The update shows it hitting as a hurricane entering around matagorda bay, stalling then heading up the coast line.

Fun fun on the coast

“ coastal areas potentially seeing 6 to 12 inches between later Sunday and Thursday. That much rain over four days is manageable, so our concerns are very high rainfall rates—which tropical storms produce—and higher than anticipated totals. We can’t rule out some 20-inch bullseyes, but so far there’s not much support for this in our best models. I think the bottom line is that we need to prepare for heavy rainfall through Wednesday or so of next week, and the possibility of flash flooding. But it may not come to that.”

I think a lot of areas can handle that. 12" over 4 or 5 days has happened without a hurricane.

The staying on the coast,in warm water and beating up coastal towns is the worry

Were currently servicing the Shell Perdido platform in the direct path of the storm. Already having 25 knot winds with 5-7 foot seas and slowly increasing as it gets closer. Nothing to crazy yet but were hoping to get out of here tonight. Fingers crossed!





Stay safe out there. We were in the same boat three weeks ago with Laura. We crew changed a couple days early and able to make it off. Our reliefs were not to happy.

Intensity forecast looks to have dropped. Good news for us on the coast.

If it goes into Matagorda, would this be the first since Hurricane Carla in 1961? In 43 years I’ve never witnessed a hurricane, just a few dink tropical storms.

Hope it just gives us a little rain. No wind or flooding.
