In a related matter, in the 10pm (EDT) Conference Call, NHC said they are shifting the track closer to Galveston in the 11pm package.




Thanks for the clarification regarding that graphic! So, is a shift closer to Galveston a track more northward? Did they indicate what the intensity would be set at? I have not seen a recon since the 899 one (which was originally 898) at 2309z which is 4 hours old now. Weren't they going to go to 3 hr fixes this afternoon?
