So, If by chance this thing goes into the GOM, then me, being in Houston, could get some of the clouds and maybe rain associated with it? That sucker is huge!

The hurricane is having a eyewall replacement right now. It is big in there is more red around the eye then it has been even when a full eye is out. I expect another 30 mile wide eye to show later tonight.
