If this thing shoots the gap it's gonna be a big problem, I remember when Michael shot through and exploded almost overnight

At the moment, it looks like a center of circulation could be forming on the northside of the wave axis which gives it a higher chance of "shooting the gap" and hitting the northern gulf coast.
The Euro was also a prolific rainfall producer for a large area and it was still going to some extent by the end of the run.

This would be hitting almost exactly where laura hit last year and that would almost wipe what was left of those small towns and communities right off the map.

I didn't want to be the first to say it. It had to be someone with pedigree.
Since this morning, I've felt like NOLA could be doomed. But the system hadn't even developed yet, so I thought it might be premature.
This thing is not even a storm, and I think it has pretty damn good shot at Category 5 lol.
That's not a good sign.

My theory is that when the HWRF is shouting, pay attention. But when they are all shouting, just start preparations. We have 5 days to get people in the region prepared. Don't squandered it!

Looks like trouble for the Gulf states.

That sharp right turn tells me we might see more east shift
I like the recurring possibility post landfall .. will certainly help the SE evade dry problems we were about to experience if we had no tropical influence 
I don’t think this necessarily a weenie statement here. We’ve seen the modeling change significantly in the last 36 hours from a Mexico to south Texas threat to now and east Texas/Louisiana threat. Obviously the strength of the ridge in the east is gonna be key in this.
This one is gonna be a bad one, already getting bold wording from the NHC 120 hours out

Yeah I figured they would ramp up wording today but wow. Last time I remember a hurricane being mentioned in the TWO was Harvey
18z GFS quite a bit further north so far.
It develops it sooner in the Caribbean. Headed to the Big Easy?
