968mbs...you probably shave some of that as well...very likely a 3/4 into Texas on that run.
Is the GFDl/HWRF going to be run tonight, they could be interesting to say the least!

Its not too different from another biggie storm from history trackwise:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1900_Galveston_hurricane
not perfect but not a bad match for that run overall.

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L-Models
Well this next week is certainly going to be crazy for most of the Gulf and possibly the East Coast as well! Tonight's models will be very interesting to say the least!

Very true buddy. Let's see if the west trend continues in the next few days.

Yes, it is definitely making the Gulf tour on it's runs. As always this will all come down to where and when the eventual LLC takes up shop. I would expect some additional flopping in the models before it is said and done. With that being said I think the greatest threat is from the Rio Grande up to the NC Outer Banks...

Re: ATL: INVEST 97L-Models
According to the 18z GFS and the size of the Isobars, the storm is so huge that the center hits houston but the rains and winds of at least tropical storm force would stretch all the way to Florida

Well the 18z totally destroys the previous GFS runs show and shifts well west.
Had a feeling we were about to see a westward trend from the 18z GFS...
Its always wierd whenthe GFS is west of the ECM...but they both have shifted to the central Gulf...
We will have to see what the 00z suite shows.

Rock I guess if the 18z verifies you'll have no power and A/C and then you can eventually smell like what you shower in

Yeah exactly, my big fear is though the ECM also shifted westwards a little on its last couple of runs.
not impossible this shifts the whole way to Mexico...I grant you its an outside risk!
No way it goes to MX if that TX Ridge is retreating like that. It will take that TX ridge holding and expanding eastward over most of the northern half of the Gulf to drive this to MX and none of the models have shown such thus far.
