Hurricane Harvey

[Spurs9]

Looks like we are going to get messed up pretty bad by the flooding in SA because of this storm. It looks like its going to hit SA directly and then stall out dumping a ton of rain. Hopefully none of you guys live in low water areas, I lived here during the flood of 98 and 2000 and they were really bad tbh. Stay safe out there. :king

although I have seen a few reports saying "could be a 4" or "nearly a 4".

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Likely a 4. Hurricanes in the GOM don't "just" develop into minor hurricanes unless they're really close to land when they first develop.

Too bad MannyIsGod doesn't post much anymore, he could tell us whether we're going to live.

Cat 3 is the official prediction from NHC but we know NHC tends to be conservative. They had Katrina as a cat 2 landfall just 60 hours out.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Could be Texas's Katrina.

[SpursforSix]

Could be Texas's Katrina.

Hope not. But maybe a good time to be buying up rental properties in the metroplex.

[SpursforSix]

It looks to me like the upper-air lows over Nevada and central Mexico are pushing monsoonal moisture further east than usual. Wonder if that will mitigate the dry-air to a degree. Suspect Harvey will always be pretty asymmetric but that's of many of the Gulf storms.

[SnakeBoy]

SA is going to be just fine since it looks like we'll on the west side of it. It's the Houston area that's really going to get it after the system stalls and just dumps rain on them for days.

[pgardn]

Those bastards thatjust built right on the shrimp channel between Aransas Pass and Port A, goodbye. You Fckn built on good wetland and fishing spots.

Should be cool to go down in a couple of weeks to see how the lay of the land has changed. Hope the people on higher ground in CC, Rockport, etc... come out ok. Building to be ON the water, so long.

The lower estimates for SA right now is 1 foot for Friday/Saturday. We will have flooding if this projection holds. It's supposed to slow down and hold.

[SpursforSix]

Recon headed back towards the center, we shall see if it has strengthened any more.

[SnakeBoy]

Current forecast is 2-6 inches for SA-Austin area.

There hasn't been a hurricane this size hit Texas since the 70s and this asshole is talking about what's going to happen. :lol

Finally starting to see some warming near the center as the convection on the Eastern eyewall deepens.

I remember Katrina strengthened like crazy while it was just off the coast, fortunately our city isn't below sea level tbh

[pgardn]

Not on the weather channel.

They JUST showed 12-18 inches Fri/Saturday with a stall.

That would be channel 1225 for ATT.

[RD2191]

Current forecast is 2-6 inches for SA-Austin area.

That's just an estimate. Harvey was a tropical storm yesterday and it's projected to hit as a Cat 3 possibly 4 and stall out over Texas.

[SpursforSix]

some might be thinking that this might be another one of those 'weird' canes , where that separate band of convection to the north-east stays there forever.

But it's really common in the Gulf b/c the inflow is asymmetric. Camille had it while it was an uber cat 5.

[pgardn]

They are already running out of gas in Gregory. Just talked to a friend. They are evacuating, Rockport thru port lavaca.

[SpursforSix]

Storm surge coupled with this thing hanging in the same general area after landfall for maybe 72 hours before heading back out into the Gulf is setting up for a major disaster.

[Spurs9]

Flood of 98 and wasn't even as big of a storm as this one, it rained over 16 inches in 4-5 days, this could be alot more :cry

Ok. Kens is saying 2-6 along IH35 from SA-Austin on their website. I guess we'll have to see where it goes. Last I saw, most of the plots had it tracking east of SA then taking a sharp turn east and then stalling.

If you google San Antonio weather discussion they have some really good stuff with a lot of meteorology jargon. They don't tend to do rainfall expectations by number though.

Intensity forecasting for tropical systems is incredibly difficult due to a number of external and internal dynamics that affect the growth and sustainment of such systems.


Harvey has purged all the dry air from itself on the latest GOES 16 image...the center is completely nested within deep convection.

Back to Tropical Storm


Hurricane Harvey Discussion Number 18 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL092017 400 PM CDT Thu Aug 24 2017 Since the issuance of the special advisory at 1800 UTC, data from a dropsonde released by a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicated that Harvey's central pressure has dropped to 976 mb. However, the plane has not measured winds stronger than what was observed by the previous Air Force flight (although the NOAA P3 is flying a research mission at a nonstandard level). For now, the initial intensity will remain 75 kt pending data from another Air Force flight this evening. Harvey's initial motion estimate is 330/9 kt. A strengthening mid-level high over the eastern Gulf of Mexico is expected to push Harvey northwestward by tonight, and a northwest or north-northwest motion should continue up until landfall. However, a stronger mid-level high centered over the western United States is forecast to cause Harvey to slow down considerably and stall near or just inland of the Texas coast by days 3 and 4. After that time, the track models have trended toward showing Harvey moving slowly eastward by day 5, but it's too early to know if the center will remain over land or re-emerge over the northwestern Gulf of Mexico. The track guidance is very tightly clustered for the first 36-48 hours, which covers the period of landfall, but then there is much greater spread in the models after 48 hours when Harvey is forecast to slow down. Such guidance is usually an indication that the cyclone will move very little, which is reflected in the official forecast. Harvey remains in an environment for further strengthening. Vertical shear is low, and the hurricane will be moving over a warm eddy of relatively higher oceanic heat content within the next 12-24 hours. As a result, the NHC intensity forecast calls for additional intensification at least for the next 24 hours, with Harvey expected to attain major hurricane strength on Friday. There may be some fluctuations in intensity up until landfall due to the possibility of an eyewall replacement or cooling of the shallow shelf waters of Texas, but regardless Harvey is forecast to reach the coast as a major hurricane. The intensity forecast after 48 hours is tricky because it all depends on how far inland Harvey moves into Texas. If it stays stalls closer to the coast, as recent model trends have suggested, then the cyclone may be able to maintain a higher intensity with a greater proportion of its circulation remaining over water. For that reason, the updated NHC intensity forecast keeps Harvey as a tropical storm on days 3 through 5, but there is greater-than-normal uncertainty in this part of the forecast. It is critical that users not focus on the exact forecast track of Harvey, since cycle-to-cycle adjustment are likely. All locations within the hurricane and storm surge warning areas should be preparing for the possibility of major hurricane-force winds and life-threatening storm surge.

[SpursforSix]

You can literally see the eye clearing out with more convection popping around the eyewall. Its over 30C waters with high TCHP, low shear, and very moist mid levels. Once the sun goes down and we get a nice temperature differential we could see another period of rapid intensification.
(Having a hell of a time posting images here compared to what it used to be)

https://i.imgur.com/wo0wxPml.jpg

[SpursforSix]

Seriously though, there's some dry air wrapping around the core, but convection is healthy in the eyewall, and will probably mix that dry air before it tries to entrain the eye


, but I wonder if there's also a tad of subsidence between Harvey's eye and the convection to the NE of the storm. Those two factors might make the appearance "ragged" to some, but it's not impacting the inner cord of the storm as it's clearly a healthy system overall. Seems like dry air entrainment fears are similar to watching the dry slot or rain/snow line with big winter storms.

Looks like the north side of the eye is prepping to fire back up.

900694987834306560

[SnakeBoy]

Shit, NOAA is moving the forecast track a little more west


Harvey has turned a little to the left since the last advisory with
the initial motion now 315/9. A mid-level anticyclone over the
eastern Gulf of Mexico is expected to steer Harvey generally
northwestward with a decreasing forward speed for the next 36-48 h,
with the center now forecast to make landfall on the middle Texas
coast in about 36 h. This part of the new forecast track has been
nudged a little to the left based mainly on the initial position
and motion. After landfall, the cyclone is likely to get stuck
between the Gulf anticyclone and a stronger anticyclone over the
western United States, with little motion likely from 48-96 h.

George, obviously at this point, we have the luxury of being able to assess these structural nuances to inform thoughts on intensity/impact, but even as early as Tuesday morning the writing was on the wall for a catastrophic US impact and certainly the end of the major hurricane drought.
When guidance ever shifted north, and decided not to bury a TS/minimal cane into Mexico, I noted the pristine upper level environment forecast and the unperturbed bath water over the western GOM and sounded the alarms.
The only thing that can save the coast from extensive/extreme wind damage is if this were to hover off of the coast for a protracted stretch, which would allow for weakening.

10 am Friday (Texas): Hurricane HARVEY is strengthening as it closes in on the Texas coast. The eye is a sexy pinhole. It's a small target to chase, but radar suggests it's developing concentric eyewalls, meaning a new, larger eye could emerge from that process. Meanwhile, I'm scrutinizing elevation maps trying to decide where to station myself. This could be a very dangerous hurricane at landfall and I can't f*ck this up. The USA hasn't seen one like this in over a decade. More soon.
P.S. While it isn't my focus, Texans up and down the coast should be aware that the rainfall from HARVEY is forecast to be *extremely* heavy as the cyclone kind of camps out near the coast for a few days. So, even folks that escape the real scary winds could see very dangerous flooding. PLAN ACCORDINGLY.

Depends where since Bexar county is pretty large. You guys may be on the extreme NW side of it if it veers toward Houston/Louisiana like it might do, or if it goes back into the gulf and fucks up New Orleans you'll be spared most of the flooding. But you'll probably see lots of evacuees from Houston/Corpus coming in throughout the weekend. Power may even go out for awhile as the grid compensates and diverts power to those who need it most

The Man Who Bungled Bush’s Hurricane Katrina Response Just Made An Urgent Plea To Trump

http://verifiedpolitics.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/fema.jpg


“Mr. President, please take these comments with an open mind.

My comments are not meant to be critical,” he wrote in an op-ed for The Hill, understanding that the president’s short fuse is often ignited at the slightest critique.

“I simply want to alert you to the human and political pitfalls when an administration faces a potentially major natural or manmade disaster and doesn’t realize the bully pulpit makes the difference between a successful response and, frankly, a politically devastating response.”

Brown went on to explain the responsibilities of the president in disasters, telling him that the government response will not manage itself and needs a strong leader to empower individuals and teams at every level.

An extra challenge exists right now, Brown points out, because

Trump has failed to fill key positions responsible for emergency response:

“Mr. President, [acting FEMA Director] Long needs you to step up to the bully pulpit.

“Why?

“FEMA will need assistance from the Departments of Defense, Agriculture, Commerce, Energy, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Development, Transportation, Interior, Environmental Protection Agency and others.

Many of those departments and agencies do not have the political appointees to marshal the resources FEMA will need.

Now is not the time to debate why many of those offices are vacant.

Now is the time to realize they are vacant and step to the plate as Commander-in-Chief and rally your troops.”
In desperation to stop this president from repeating the mistakes of 12 years ago — or worse — Brown even made a naked appeal to Trump’s personal political ambitions:

“In a natural or manmade disaster, every minute of delay within the bureaucracy turns into hours and days of delay on the ground.

Nothing is more frustrating — and deadly — than when a FEMA administrator has to fight through a bureaucratic jungle to get the resources needed from other departments and agencies.

And if they’re on vacation, or there is no one in that policy or procurement office, you have a situation that can be deadly — literally and politically.”

I know there are some theories out there arguing that since global temp has risen it has actually caused more wind sheer blunting frequency of full formation.

The wind shear isn't higher globally. It's been higher in the Atlantic basin since the "active" period from 1995-2010 ended, causing a lot of weak storms to stay weak and significantly less major hurricanes in the Atlantic basin since 2010.

But the Pacific has been MORE active since we've switched AMO/PDO phases. So it's a trade off, nothing global
