Trip to Houston for the WNBR is in jeopardy
Return to DiscussionsUh oh, I may have to cancel the Houston trip. There is a tropical disturbance in the SW Gulf of Mexico that has a 50% chance of development in the next 48 hours and 70% in the next 7 days and is heading north along the west shore of the Gulf so it could be a tropical storm or hurricane by the end of next week depending on how fast it develops and the direction and speed it moves. I will have to monitor it. Of course if I do have to cancel that will mean I will have 4 days straight off unless I claim a shift, so a couple beach days could be in order.
Things are starting to look better. This system is forecast to move pretty fast. By the time I am scheduled to pass through Louisiana, it should be downgraded to a tropical depression and be at the Northwest border of Mississippi. So as long as there is no damage or flooding , i may be ok. As is often the case, the weather after the storm passes looks really nice.
Yes, looks like a go. The current track has it making landfall in central LA at 7pm Wednesday, 34 hours at least before I would be passing through. By the time I pass through it will be in north western Tennessee. I may leave a couple hours later just to be safe.
