Please don’t be another Ike, the inland hurricane that hit Ohio. I’ll never forget it as long as I live...

And Ike made landfall as only a Cat. 2 storm.

We were without power for a week but fortunately for us the weather was nice and we had a generator.
Speaking of which, might be a good time to get gas and exercise the generator...

No hurricane this... Alex is a tropical storm that did not land below TX border, but turned, degraded and is sitting just of Louisiana coast as of about one hour ago.. as per satellite image below.

Just started raining here. Don’t know if it’s outer bands or if it’s just fingers.

Speaking of which, might be a good time to get gas and exercise the generator... Just ran mine this last week with a 3KW load. Keep 3 gallons in it with Stabil mixture and change the gasoline in it out completely once a year and the oil every other year. Never had a bit of trouble with it in 6 years.

Thanks for the thread NNurse. I’ve got family 50 miles inland down in the toe of Texas on the border.
To: Ron C.
Looks like a small remnant of Alex, left after that mass broke away and headed northeast toward Louisiana, still remains and could reform as a hurricane again - but with half the mass and greatly reduced wind velocity.
Just guessing - from views seen at this link.
Maybe this is God's oil-spill cleanup campaign... who knows.

Advisory notes no change in watches and warnings, but it sure look like the cone has shifted well south of the border.

I think that’s a spin off storm,,,
The center of rotation is far south of that,,,
I’m in NW Louisiana and we’re getting T-Storms up here,,,
This storm won’t clean-up anything,,,
It’s driving the oil into the marsh...

Those are outer bands and they’ll keep spinning off until the storm goes inland.
Have always said this is the way God cleans house, the bays, the beaches, etc.

Bloody media types have been praying for a hurricane, and for a few hours they had what they wanted... but, notice how they’ve been absolutely mum about the breakup of this storm for the past four hours?

You think it was bad in Ohio - you should have seen it in Houston!

Agree with the shift with the current due west storm track. However, a general west-northwestward motion is expected over the next 24 to 48 hours.
