Yep. I see that as well. As of 10 am Central time, it (MLC) looks to be about 75 miles southeast of Freeport, Texas. If I'm seeing it right.

Re: Northern Gulf
Just checked the LCH and HGX radars and the NASA satellite. I'm not seeing a LLC yet. Some turning but nothing that appears near the surface,

It is very depressing as this could have been a wonderful help to the drought....on radar there is so much moisture in the GOM, but as it gets closer to the coast, it just seems like it cannot make it onshore, I am assuming the dry air is keeping it from making it onshore

Socked in with clouds and a steady rain at the moment. More than we had yesterday. A nice breeze with the rain as well. I'm wishing it over to Texas

This is the latest AVIATION DISCO from Houston NWS
ANOTHER BAND OF RAIN HAS DEVELOPED ALONG
SOUTHERN LAKE CHARLES CWA BORDER AND IS MOVING TOWARDS THE WEST. A
VORTICITY MAXIMUM ASSOCIATED WITH A SHORTWAVE WILL APPROACH THE
COAST MONDAY. GFS/ NAM/ ECMWF HAVE THE FEATURE MOVING INLAND A
TAD BEFORE 11Z WITH THE RAP BEING THE MOST PROGRESSIVE BRINGING
THE SHORTWAVE IN AROUND 3Z MONDAY.
Maybe there is hope. Raining, very gently, off and on by the bay at the moment.
