I’m in the Houston area as well. This storm will be about 2x bigger than Ike...same pressure (roughly). Winds will be less...but surge will be the killer.

Since you are a meteorologist could you tell me if this graphic is in order of most significance? Thanks

I guess I could rephrase the question. Why is the first graph first and the last graph last? Engineers need to know. Thanks

(it certainly isn’t by alpha or numeric order)

Surge is the unexpected to the inexperienced. I see one models has it pulling back out to sea after landfall. If Sandy turns into another Tropical Storm Allison someone will be in a world of trouble.

Good to know you especially a fellow FR. Houston is really a good place to be.
