And my phone announces "Harvey" every time y'all post something, so now I will never get any work done. :)

I wouldn't if this thing becomes a major. If you have never been in a hurricane before, I don't recommend going. They aren't fun and if you chased to the coast, you probably won't be making it back home soon given all the flooding.

I had the idea too but the flooding issues is really driving me away from it

I'm also not really prepared for it and if this thing blows up into a monster there's gonna be other problems

and I can't be away from Dallas that long due to work lol

This isn't my first encounter with a hurricane (hermine & matthew) so I have some experience. Yes, getting stuck does concern me this time because I am in school...

Now if I remember how to read these right, that is 981mb with a 13kt wind. So that would be close to 979-980 extrapolated correct?
 
NHC forecasting the 12 year major streak to end

FORECAST VALID 26/0000Z 27.3N 96.3W
MAX WIND 100 KT...GUSTS 120 KT.
64 KT... 35NE 25SE 25SW 35NW.
50 KT... 60NE 50SE 50SW 60NW.
34 KT...150NE 100SE 80SW 100NW.
 
The official forecast now calls for a 100 kt (115 mph) major hurricane...

...HARVEY QUICKLY STRENGTHENING AND FORECAST TO BE A MAJOR HURRICANE WHEN IT APPROACHES THE MIDDLE TEXAS COAST... ...LIFE-THREATENING STORM SURGE AND FRESHWATER FLOODING EXPECTED...

I don't think they have a case unless the NAM is right. LOL. What is scary is that it is strenghtening so fast and that if the forecast jumped from a cat 1 to a cat 3 at landfall, it could do it again. I fear we will be looking at a 4 at landfall.
 
From the discussion:

With Harvey now strengthening at a faster rate than indicated in
previous advisories, the intensity forecast has become quite
concerning. Water vapor images indicate that the cyclone's outflow
is expanding--indicative of low shear--and Harvey will be moving
over a warm eddy of high oceanic heat content in the western Gulf of
Mexico in about 24 hours. As a result of these conditions, several
intensity models, including the ICON intensity consensus, are now
explicit showing Harvey reaching major hurricane intensity. What's
more astounding is that some of the SHIPS Rapid Intensification
indices are incredibly high. As an example, the guidance is
indicating a 70 percent chance of Harvey's winds increasing by 45 kt
over the next 36 hours. Based on this guidance, the NHC official
intensity forecast now calls for Harvey to reach major hurricane
strength by 36 hours, before it reaches the middle Texas coast.
 
Scary stuff.
