[The South Texan]

If she hits in the Brownsville area, Corpus will just get some TS force winds and rain (which we need big time). Of course that is if she stays the size she is which is an unknown. I think I'll go to Home Depot on Friday to get my plywood for my windows, just in case.

Allen and Gilbert both took a southern course across the Caribbean and that should be a sign for most Texans on the coast to get ready.

We're definately going to need to see some changes occur in the GOM to get the storm to TX.

High pressure pretty well anchored it seems, nice ring of convection popped this afternoon. That would block the storm from entering the GOM... but, I would be surprised if the map looks exactly the same in 4-5 days.

New Euro plows the storm into the central Yucatan, then doesn't do much with it as it stays very close to the Mexico coast in the southern GOM.
