Good grief, do none of you know about what can happen along the Texas Gulf Coast. Go look up Tropical Storm Allison, she never became a hurricane, came in over Houston, went north to Tyler, turned around and went south of Houston again. Completely flooded out the whole area around Houston, including the medical centers. The devastation was HUGE. The 4 day rain forecast means FLOODING, 100 yr type of FLOODING. There will be no where for the water to go, so it will sit and more will come in. Storm surge - you are talking about areas that are essentially at sea level, with no impediments to the water, it will just keep going inland for a long way. And if she wobbles at all (which a lot of them do) then McAllen can have problems. Plus, there will be a lot of tornadoes thrown up around the edges.
