At this point all we can hope for is Harvey undergoes an eyewall replacement cycle before hitting Texas and ingests a helping of dry air into its western semi circle

NE Eyewall was about the same as the SE Eyewall.
Well I would say near land there is always dry air to worry about, but until then, it’s got some very warm water and an upper level anticyclone...... so it could super be off to the races.

Posted that a page back as well as the satellite imagery. It's just so laughable that a model cam even do that.Saw this on another board. to good to pass up. Not happening but you dont see this everyday in model fantasy world. Like a sub 880 pressure.
Yeah, worst case IMO is if this levels off as say a strong Cat 1/weak 2 to only RI right at landfall. To be honest the best case may be for Harvey to boom up to Cat 4 or so and then as you said have a ERC hit right before landfall.

Gas prices are gonna definitely take a hit because of Harvey, probably wouldn't be a bad idea to fill up before prices go up a butload.
Any chance Harvey avoids a US landfall and makes landfall in extreme NE Mexico ?
In other news, I love watching strong convection band around a developing eye. Can I do a Abrams or Rainbow Weed Guy and cry about it here?

Yep, I can see gas going from the lower $2 you to the mid $2 during this storm, and especially for it goes off and back over most of the oil rigs out there.

I think at this strength, it won't go further west that expected. Plus, it is still a bit east of forecast. But then again, Webber will likely have a better answer.
I remember when Hurricane Rita hit, gas prices went up to $4 - $5/gal. There was sure large concern about gas shortages that the gov. here in GA at the time closed schools for about 2 days in the Atlanta metro area. However, in that situation I think the oil rigs in the GOM were evacuated and shutdown prior to Rita approaching the Gulf coast.

Luckily we have more domestic, private oil sources now than we did then but gas is still going to skyrocket
