will copy and paste my posts from the other dying thread

To: All
Harvey looking good..I expect the NHC to increase the wind forecast..could be a major Hurricane IMO..

main story will be the rain....the storm could sit for a couple of days..just inland

Track with loops in similar to Allison which dumped 20-35 inches on Houston....in 2001

This storm is larger and stronger then Allison...

also its been Wet recently over TX(ie no drought)

When i looked at eind probabilities a few hours ago it was still 110ish max. Has that changed?

I see you have been listening to the weather channel black dude that showed a map yesterday that went Wednesday, Monday, Friday, Saturday. He said we have had so much rain it is like a swamp..... In S Texas, summer time....

NO IT IS NOT WET HERE. We are in the direct path 90 miles inland and we are welcoming the rain. Our stock tanks are empty or low of water and some people have been redigging them and some people are not so lucky and have not started yet. If you are in the cow business, salt mix is a staple food right now to get the beeves to eat the stemmy grasses that come from dry summer weather. Mice have been bunching up in the feed room a sure sign of dry weather (along with the snakes that hunt them down and the snakes that hunt the snakes) is here.

So, let it rain but leave the destruction behind, if possible.

Will this hit Wimberly TX with rain?

[gleeaikin]

Pretty scary with predictions for various areas ranging from 10 to 40 inches of rain in next few days with static storm.
