You can see it emerging in NHC's latest graphic. It looks good to me.

Closeup view. Looks big and very convective but the main thing is if down the road,it organizes.

I'm not sure if this is the storm that GFS brings into TX coast in 372 hours, but check it out:

Still highly impossible to predict from this far out.

While you may want a storm to hit you, other people in your area I assure you don't. The GFS shows a strong hurricane. Why would you want that to verify? You really need to calm your posts about wanting a storm to hit you.

i dont want a BIG storm to hit texas...just a tropical depression/storm. its wayyy to hot right now and everyones lawn needs a good soaking around here and something tropical hitting us is the only way that can happen this time of year.

If the GFS did verify like you want it to, then there would be a strong hurricane hitting Texas.

You still need to take caution with your posts when you say "Man, I really hope the GFS verifies". A strong hurricane will do far more damage than good. Think before you post. If you have anything to add feel free to PM me.

Ok but you said you wanted the GFS to verify. That means you want a Cat 2 or Cat 3.

Some people do like exciting storms (like me) but we have to remember those around us who fear storms like that.
