OK, so the model is wrong. They only get 49 inches of rain. I’m sure the residents will be relieved.

There are two major models. The GFS is showing more stalling, but it's less accurate in general and usually less accurate for hurricane tracks. So cherry picking the GFS which shows the storm stalled for a longer period (never leaving Texas), is probably not warranted. Better to look at the Euro.

Still tons of rain in the Euro as you make the point. But not 53, not 49, etc etc. Need to be realistic about the seriousness without going off the deep end.
