The 7-day forecast still shows temps to nearly 90 degrees almost every day. I guess it is better than the near 100 degree temps we have been having the week before.


The cold front died when it got here... 59 this morning but 85 this afternoon. It was supposed to be much cooler. Humidity is already coming back too... :( :roll:

I looked through the NWS Hurricane History for Texas and here is what I found. These are all the hurricanes known to have hit anywhere on the Texas coast in October (and one in November) from 1836 to 1998.

Oct. 2-6, 1837 "Racer's Storm" Middle Texas Coast
Nov. 5, 1839 Galveston
Oct. 5, 1842 Galveston
Oct. 17, 1848 Lower TX Coast
Oct. 2-3, 1867 Brownsville
Sept. 30-Oct. 2, Middle Texas Coast
Oct. 12, 1880, Brownsville
Oct. 12-13, 1886 Galveston
Oct. 16, 1912, Brownsville
Oct. 3-4, 1949 Freeport
Oct. 15-16, 1989 "Jerry" Galveston

That is 11 storms in 162 years with an average of one storm per 14.7 years. (for the entire Texas coast)

I must say that the worst period to live on the Texas coast would have to be the period from 1875 to 1900. We got creamed on a regular basis in those days! :eek:

Anyway, here is the link. It is very interesting reading. There is also a similar site for Louisiana hurricane history too.

I'm bored with this... 10:30pm TWO:

SATELLITE IMAGES AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT THE LARGE
LOW PRESSURE AREA LOCATED OVER THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA
BETWEEN HONDURAS AND THE YUCATAN CHANNEL REMAINS POORLY ORGANIZED
THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...THERE IS STILL SOME POTENTIAL FOR THIS
SYSTEM TO BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO
BEFORE MOVING WEST-NORTHWESTWARD INTO THE YUCATAN PENINSULA. AN
AIR FORCE RESERVE AIRCRAFT IS SCHEDULED TO INVESTIGATE THE SYSTEM
ON SATURDAY...IF NECESSARY. WHETHER OR NOT THIS SYSTEM BECOMES A
TROPICAL CYCLONE...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL LIKELY AFFECT
JAMAICA...THE CAYMAN ISLANDS... PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND WESTERN
CUBA...AND THE YUCATAN PENINSULA OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
INTERESTS IN AND AROUND THE NORTHWESTERN CARIBBEAN SEA SHOULD
CLOSELY MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS DISTURBANCE.

There is a very nice blow up of convection right near the center tonight. I wonder if it'll stay persistant this time. :roll:

Ok, get ready to get flamed but here I go.....99L has shrunk in size but seems to be getting a more defined circulation and a good blow up of clouds around the center. I think tonight will be the turning point for 99l into a DP tomorrow. Sheeh ....I feel much better.

Yep, the humidity came back here too. Here in Houston they are saying week's front had been projected to be much stronger, but they now expect it to stall somewhere in the CWA with moisture increasing from the south. We may still have a few weeks of watching.

Have been watching it the past few hours and feel the same way that you do. It does look like storms are trying to wrap around the center.

Quite a convective explosion very near the center. This could very well be the awakening of the system. It will be very interesting to see if this persist through the night

If this thing does form, is it too far west to bother Florida?
The US really doesn't need another storm.
