Nicholas is trying it hardest to avoid making landfall.... What a strange storm.

I feel robbed, I was expecting at least 4 to 8 inches of rain from this and so far nothing only 1 inch.

Texas dry air never loses.

Nicholas takes the cake for most bizarre storm of 2021 so far...

Anybody know roughly how high that radar's looking at the distance between League City and a vertical through the COC?

[grapealcoholic]

It's tossup on whether we get a hurricane-force pass here I think

Well, Don 2011 got literally obliterated by the Texas Day Air that was enhanced by the 2011 Drought . . .

The Texas Dry Air will always find a way to annoy Tropical Cyclones . . .

Where are you, roughly?

[ElectricStorm]

Looks to me like the center just got yeeted east and now an eyewall is quickly building

I think that's usually because, once you get past maybe 50 miles from the coast, there's often a lot of it.

Location-wise? Georgia, I just like watching the storms

Looks like it on reflectivity, but it’s not. If you look at velocity, you can see the wind field is still centered in the same place, but a band basically got pushed through the center. Just another piece of evidence of the shear it’s facing. Impressive it’s gotten this strong in spite of it.

In Beaumont. I am going to stay up most of the night to see how bad it will get. I have a feeling we are in the spot that is going to have the majority of flooding, aside from parts of houston.
I noticed that some of the models on tropical tidbits have the storm stalling/ moving backward after it passes through my area. With the way this storm is currently "avoiding" landfall it will be interesting.

[capNstorms]

I think SETX is going to get soaked, chambers, jefferson, liberty, hardin, galveston should be main focal points of flooding in the next 28 hrs, people should not be traveling tomorrow in these areas. localized 20" downpour in 28hrs? YIKES

Yep you're right it's clearly rotating around that same spot now

Try to get some sleep. You're still many hours away from the worst of it.
