Wow, CAT 4? I feel like we've heard way too little about this one.
-
@scottalanmiller It all happened so quick. I first heard about it on Wednesday and then they were just expecting a tropical storm. Yesterday, it was supposed to be a Cat 2. Now it's a Cat 4.

Our local weather (Lexington, KY) mentioned it was going to gain due to the high water temp - nearly 90 deg. That is a massive amount of energy.

Thats always been the bad thing about the Gulf. The water stays warm and fuels these things.

@scottalanmiller, @Dominica, @Texkonc, @NetworkNerd, and I are far enough inland that we won't get any thing more than a scattered shower or thunderstorm from one of the arm bands of Harvey.
Nice to see that I'm forgotten...

Yes, but that has nothing to do with the refineries.

We had this after IKE. Like 30 states worth of lineman and electrical workers. IT was some boys from TN who fixed the lines outside my office.

@storageninja Nice, but its just for Houston. Got anything for Big D?
The Big D can go... Sigh, I'll be nice to Dallas... use local weather

So far just like but steady rain all day in Waco. Haven't heard of any flooding nearby either.
