Looks like he's trying to make a last minute run to attain cat 4. Is recon in there now?

The really scary no good horrible thing will be a night time landfall - the sounds of the high winds whistling, rattles in the house, loose objects hitting the outside of the house, blinding horizontal rainfall, losing power....its a nightmare for anyone having to experience it.



A friend of mine stayed thru Frederick in 1979 and they were 30 mile inland. She said never again. Exactly as you said above,

Yes Harvey's at a latitude now that it will likely landfall north of CC - in the Matagorda Bay area with a large wildlife refuge that's sparsely populated. But it'll hang around for days and produce severe flooding probably never before seen in that part of Tx.

And starting to slow down. What about an alternate scenario - Harvey doesn't quite make it onshore, sits about 20-30 miles from the coast continuing to gain steam (to a point) while millions of people watch to see where a loaded Cat 4/5 finally ends up, all the while dumping billions of gallons of rain across the Gulf Coast. That's worthy of a novel, but it's also possible. Scary stuff.

Are the planes releasing silver iodide to try to induce an EWRC? I know they did it for Matthew, Ike, and Sandy (although the greater area of strong winds may have caused more damage than a more intense smaller eyes was) and it generally kept them below max strength.

Don't really see it slowing down much yet, if at all. That Eyewall looks 30-40 miles offshore, if that.... it's getting close. I'm not the NHC but hurricane force sustained winds are imminent. Gusts already occuring I'm sure.

Think the last system they tried it on was hurricane Ginger.
