The following post is not an official forecast and should not be used as such. It is NOT endorsed by any professional institution or storm2k.org. For official information, please refer to the NHC and NWS products.
My early prediction is a general WNW track (with a few W and NW wobbles at times) toward the TX coast. Landfall will be Thursday morning as a moderate to strong tropical storm north of Corpus Christi and south of Galveston (with a track more likely closer to Corpus than to Galveston). Worst case scenario would probably be a Cat. 1 landfall and the best case scenario would be for this to remain a TD or weak TS. We will need to monitor this closely tonight and tomorrow for any signs of rapid organization.

Wow, this thing looks great, with a perfectly circular "CDO". I think at the rate its organizing, we could see Erin by 5am or 11am, and possibly looking at a category one hurricane at landfall. Conditions are really improving, as AFM said they would earlier today.

Well, then partner, I see no reason to visit S2K. Dr Steve will show you the way.

not to be picky or ugly but this depression does not have a CDO.
Central Dense Overcast--Or, CDO, as it is commonly known as, is the mass of embedded clouds that make up the inner portion of the hurricane. This contains the eye wall, and the eye itself. The classic hurricane contains a symmetrical CDO, which means that it is perfectly circular and round on all sides.

Many streams/rivers/lakes are at or near capacity in south Texas as a result of our unusually wet June and July. A slow-moving tropical system certainly has the potential to create a nightmare of flooding for many areas. Whatever hits us, I hope it moves relatively quickly.
