1. That has happened before.

2. The computer models from both earlier today and now

have it pretty much following the entirety of the Texas Gulf Coast. Straddling it, basically. So, plenty of moisture fueling the rains and flooding.

Satellite imagery and surface observations from northern Mexico indicate that Patricia has degenerated to a remnant low pressure area characterized by no organized convection and a poorly defined surface circulation. The remnant low is expected to move northeastward and weaken to a trough during the next several hours, with the trough being absorbed by a non-tropical area of low pressure over southern Texas tonight or on Sunday.


This is the last advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on Patricia. However, a threat of heavy rains continues over portions of Mexico and the northwestern coastal areas of the Gulf of Mexico. Future information on these rains can be found in statements issued by local National Weather Service forecast offices and the meteorological service of Mexico.

4. Ohh...thanks for those graphics..

We could use the rain here in Ala. but Texas needs a lot less, not more.

3. Someone asked if the remnants could make it to the Gulf but nothing suggested

that possibility - what a storm.

Stay safe sis.

5. I mentioned that possibility a couple days ago when the track showed it going way inland

and it would not be the first time that has happened.
Hopefully all we get is rain.

Humidity just shot up in a few hours here, yet the main part of the storm is still way off near Houston.

6. Stay safe -

hope it's not endless rain if you know what I mean
