Tropical Major Hurricane Harvey

Well i guess you can tell the areas where tropical sytems are most likely to stall. The northeast and mid atlantic seems like it is much less likely to have a tropical system to stall for days.

Tornado warning for downtown Houston... A lot of people probably have no idea it's coming

To an extent that's definitely true because the mid latitude westerlies are stronger the further N you get and they're above the axis of the mean subtropical high pressure centers unlike the southeastern US...

Anyone have updated storm total estimates? From what I'm hearing 4 feet plus? Crazy
It's hard to believe landfall was 36 hours ago and this storm is only 60 miles from the landfall point. Both of the 12z NAM runs look like they drift it far enough east to almost have it centered just north of the landfall point

Along with the rain that falls in the metro area, Houston will also have to contend with the rain that falls upstream in the San Jacito, Brazos, and Trinity river basins.

12Z GFS more East with the rainfall. 92L is also further west. Does anyone else think that if Harvey pulls more east, 92L will pull further west? Or is that not how it works?

This is horrible and incredible at the same time. They had the amazing wind at first, and now the rain and tornadoes. So much rain, and so many tornado warnings. This may be the worst natural disaster ever for our country.

Wish Harvey will pull more east
I dont see how it could be worse than Katrina. Didnt thousands die in Katrina ?

IMO the way it could be "worse" than Katrina, is with the combination of onshore flow/surge blocking "runoff" and continued rain band blocking air evacs.. Houston could become totally cut off with water rise and many trapped in flood areas and no way to rescue.. That could lead to a tragic death toll. And Houston was really not "urged" to evacuate.
The gfs does no favors for Texas as it moves the remnants of Harvey toward Dallas and continues a southerly flow of moisture from the deep tropics into the area. It actually brings high pwats into a good part of the South by days 5-7

That guy sounds like a real jerk. Someone should tweet him this pic and ask him if this is better.
