Cape Verde storms are always a concern.

2. A area of low pressure could form over the southwestern Gulf of
Mexico by the weekend, however, environmental conditions are
expected to become unfavorable for tropical cyclone formation by
that time. Interests along the Texas and Louisiana coasts are
encouraged to consult products from their local NWS Forecast Office
for more information about impacts from any non-tropical weather
systems.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...10 percent.

A part of me hopes Irma is being over hyped to perpetuate media dollars.
But that would be a lot pf payoffs to meteorologists.

Irma's path is hinging on the size of the high pressure system in northern Atlantic. NOAA is calling it to turn West and South-West on Saturday meaning there is a huge high pressure system. Do you agree with this?

Took a roundabout route to Houston.

Colorado River at Wharton has highway closed. 60% of the town is flooded.

Crossed of the Brazos River at I-59. Looked to be about a 1/4 mile wide.

Would your town's supply/food chain get affected by Houston's situation?
