whether who eats crow or not, whether they say its a depression or not, every system that esp was a system at one time or another, needs to be watched, this system like its predessor almost the same track did the same thing, so the lesson is:it ain't over till its over. Everyone on the msg board who has tracked tropical systems for awhile on this board should know this.

Doesn't matter. The center is closed. It's a TD(maybe even a TS, I don't know if those winds are sufficent for it or not).

I was staying with a friend of mine. They had gusts over 100 on Galveston and the winds were 10-15 kts in Webster as the storm passed 20 miles to our east.
