Definitely changes things for the Texas coast and would lead to a much more northern hit than what I was thinking - though I was thinking Texas more than Mexico all along.
It's going to be a fight though. That ULL is much stronger (as someone said earlier this week) than what some of the models had given it credit for. It almost looks like the former LLC is its lunch.
Interesting.

This change is a new ballgame in terms of the track is concerned.

Notice, too
Notice, too, that the 00Z DSHIPS continues a trend of a lower intensity forecast. Now only 64kts at landfall. It will be really hard for this storm to get its act together while zipping across the Gulf at around 15-20kts between a strong ridge to the north and a strong upper low to the south.

Not sure

I'm not sure what you mean. The upper low will be moving west into the BOC directly south of the storm - keeping easterly winds across the storm. By the time the ULL reaches the Bay of Campeche, the storm will be inland into Mexico or Texas. But at that time (landfall) the upper ridge over Texas should be producing NE-ENE winds along the TX coast aloft.

Sorry, I was joining the general circulation behind an (upper level) low and the geography of the Bay of Campeche, Gulf of Mexico and Gulf coastal areas with system in the Bahamas now.
There typically is a southwest flow on the southeast side of a low; the counter-clockwise circulation creating that southwest flow.
