I'd say 50 kt right now with the data available.

One of my posts disappeared... I was just asking if anyone else agreed that this would come ashore before Midnight tonight? Was the post somehow in violation or just a glitch in the system. I appeared to be temporarily locked from the forum too. I try very hard to abide by the rules of Storm2k.

I'm guessing just a glitch on my end.. sorry about that

Nerves are getting a little wrangled with Humberto ramping up still and such a high degree of uncertainty hanging over things.

I've noticed that as well.



It is really hard to tell because it's not moving fast but I would stick with a general N to NNE movement. IMO I guess we can call this "radar watch" instead of "wobble watch".

I would go with a N or NNW movement right now, IMO. It doesn't make a whole lot of difference though. Galveston still looks like the main target either way.

From the loop i posted above it looks to be moving just a hair east of due north, looks like the west end of Galveston Is over to Galveston if it keeps up the present movement. You can also see the banding eye forming..if this had another 24hours over water....yeow!

There are some mini-supercells to the E of Galveston right now. The one nearest to Galveston has some rotation clearly evident in it, so could see some tornadoes in the outer rainbands coming ashore in the next few hours. SPC has issued a slight risk for this region.

JB just posted an update....he's thinking this could possibly make hurricane status and Galveston looks like the target.

A tornado watch may bee needed soon as well.

I'd be thinking about a Hurricane Watch on top of the Tropical Storm Warning with that forecast...

49 knot SFMR peak 10 second surface wind. No rain reported.
If that were representative of the storm, that would indicate sustained winds near 55 mph at the surface. Using the 30 second data on either side of it, you would come up with 50 mph sustained winds at the surface.

THE SATELLITE AND RADAR PRESENTATION OF HUMBERTO HAS BECOME BETTER
DEFINED DURING THE DAY TODAY...WITH A SPIRAL CONVECTIVE BAND
WRAPPING FROM THE SOUTHEAST QUADRANT ALL THE WAY AROUND TO THE CORE
SOUTH OF THE CENTER. MAXIMUM FLIGHT-LEVEL WINDS REPORTED BY THE
RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT DO NOT YET REFLECT THIS INCREASE IN
ORGANIZATION...BUT SFMR DATA...AS WELL AS A COUPLE OF SHIP
REPORTS...SUPPORT AN INTENSITY OF ABOUT 45 KT. THERE WERE A FEW
HIGHER SFMR WIND REPORTS IN THE CONVECTIVE BAND IN THE NORTHEAST
QUADRANT...BUT TWO DROPSONDES IN THAT BAND DID NOT CONFIRM THOSE
HIGHER WIND ESTIMATES. THE DEPRESSION IS IN A LIGHT-SHEAR
ENVIRONMENT WITH ANTICYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT...AND GIVEN THE CURRENT
ORGANIZATION...ADDITIONAL INTENSIFICATION IS ANTICIPATED. THE
PRIMARY INHIBITING FACTOR FOR DEVELOPMENT WILL BE THE SHORT PERIOD
OF TIME THE SYSTEM WILL HAVE OVER WATER...AND THE EXPECTATION IS
THAT HUMBERTO WILL NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME OVER WATER TO REACH
HURRICANE STRENGTH.

I'm a tad surprised they didnt issue a hurricane watch just to be on the safe side.

If my solution from a few days ago verifies this will be a minimal Cat 1 at landfall... ooops, that would be just east of Corpus though... hmmmm
