Overlapping D's

Crazy how dry Texas is almost no hurricane can ever dig inland or moisten up the state past the coastal counties. It’s like NC with snow being only in the MTN counties.
 
I kind of figured that this was going to head to being a hurricane but regardless of it being a hurricane or not, the rainfall is going to be the biggest story.

Tropical systems seem to like to stall around here...
 
Hurricane Nicholas made landfall near 1230 AM CDT (0530 UTC) on
eastern part of the Matagorda Peninsula, about 10 miles (15 km)
west-southwest of Sargent Beach, Texas.
 
The sun is out in Texas does anyone know if the rain totals are gonna bust? Looks like it’s all New Orleans and east. Much further east than what I was expecting this morning per live radar.
 
Very interesting to see strong thunderstorms rotate around the eye or circulation over land. And a tail in the gulf. Even has a classic “S” shape that most developing tropical systems get over water. 7A680929-654A-4C68-A301-AE11C76BA318.png
 
Quiet amazing we are still tracking this post storm over the Carolinas. Up to half a foot here per Flood Watch is possible.

I'm pretty sure I picked up over 4 inches of rain from Nicholas, or parts of it.

That’s incredible. This late in the game of a dead cyclone and it’s doing more than some direct hurricane hits.
