It looks like she has lost her inner core through the night. I wonder if this brings on another core formation in the next few hours.

Looks like folks between Houston and Morgan City will need to pay close attention based on those model runs. Will the trend continue and put more of the central/northern gulf in the dreaded cone once more? The 5am NHC discussion indicated that they were on the southern edge of all the model guidance perhaps foretelling a significant shift to the right after entering the gulf. Not good!

It seems people forget so easy how these model runs take such significant jumps from the day/evening runs....

It is obvious though that the NHC is concerned about a WNW/NW type of movement in the latter stage of the forecast. Looking more and more like a Texas hit...

Still early and plenty of days to watch. Can't wait till the NOAA planes start making their flights...

....yea, and people in La. think it'll be an La. hit, people in FL think it'll be a FL hit, people in the Carolinas still think it will turn up the east coast so it's normal for people in Texas to think it'll be a Texas hit. It's just natural like that.

Agreed. this high pressure here now is unreal.. If it doesn't move, then its going south of here.

Oh, I wasn't replying to your comment dwg. I was just looking at "overall" thoughts. Sorry if anyone took this the wrong way.

Things are mobile several days out, but what is becoming rather fixed is that the Keys now look like they are going to get a direct hit over much of their length. Might be a good idea to focus on that some.

The Keys are definitely going to get some effects. There's a mandatory evac order for everyone in Key West as of this morning too. They don't take things lightly here, so when they make everyone go, they're expecting some icky weather....
