I haven't kept up with the updates but what I have heard is they're worried about this being a slow moving storm. Like Allison.

Some more good videos. Galveston has a 'voluntary evacuation' order. Dr. Frank is worth watching - They mentioned he'll give a report. . . He's this wonderful old retired meteorologist they bring out during these storms. I love watching him. He teaches as he explains.


Landfall Thursday. Or so they say.

Cindy Update: Landfall was made about 4am+. Lets zoom in very close to see exactly where.





Put the surface winds on to see where the actual center circulation is. Louisiana in the books for the landfall not Texas. Looks like Just west of Holly Beach.

the north-northeast is expected tonight, followed by a turn toward
the northeast on Friday. On the forecast track, the center will
move into southeastern Arkansas early Friday, and into Tennessee
later on Friday.

Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 40 mph (65 km/h) with
higher gusts. Continued weakening is forecast during the next
48 hours, and Cindy should weaken to a tropical depression later
today, and become a remnant low tonight.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km)
to the southeast and southwest of the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 994 mb (29.36 inches).

Loop last 2 days. Not the most organized or prettiest but it didn't have enough room to really develop anyway.
