Tracking the Tropics:
Tropical Depression Nadine with sustained winds of 30 mph. We’re tracking the threat of localized areas of flooding across southern Mexico, northern Guatemala and northern Belize.
Hurricane Oscar is a Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 80 mph. Hurricane warnings are now in effect for southeastern Bahamas and a portion of northeastern coast of Cuba. We’re also tracking the threat of storm surges to a portion of southeastern Bahamas, Great Inagua Island and the north shore of Cuba.
Hurricane season runs through November 30th, but in recorded history SE Texas has never had a storm hit past October 15th. The reason is our cold fronts block storms from moving north. Fronts steer them east. We’ll probably have a few more storms but if they hit the United States it will be along the east coast.
10-day Forecast:
No rain in the forecast and there are also several days we get near 90°.
