Re: ATL: HARVEY - Hurricane - Discussion
I think that may be it for anymore towers to fire off.
Watching CIN (Convective Cap) overland to see if it breaks down and allows convection to refire.
However, it appears to be turning north and secondary Coriolis effects should kick in which will increase its vorticity and wind magnitude.
It is also moving into a higher troposphere which will stretch its vort column vertically causing it also to spin faster.

Local TV met (Houston) just said they are now expecting landfall tonight around 8 p.m. I guess it has sped up a bit?

This storm has continually looked more impressive than the numbers have borne out.
115 and 945 for me.
105 and 950 for me.
115/942

Did they actually say the eye would make landfall or "tropical storm conditions will begin" at 8pm?

Re: ATL: HARVEY - Hurricane - Discussion
A lot of people don't realize that this will last for days not 12-18 hrs like most hurricanes, that's how you get 40" of rain.

I rewound the TV to check--landfall around 8 to 9 p.m. tonight. I thought tropical storm conditions were already happening in Corpus.

Likely higher winds, possible increase in a Cat level.
