Hello Everyone, First time poster, long, long, long time flhurricane observer...
My resume in short (NWS employee for a year, NBC4 Weather employee for a year)
Taking pressure readings along the coast of Texas may be an arbitrary method of forecasting where the eye might eventually make landfall, but its one in which many of us have used for years...
Based upon current readings:
Gavelston Island Barometer: 29.70" (1005.7 mb)
Beaumont/Port Arthur, SE Texas Regional Airport Barometer: 29.71" (1005.9 mb
High Island Barometer: 29.70" (1005.7 mb)
Lake Charles Regional Airport Barometer: 29.70" (1006.3 mb)
Angleton / Lake Jackson, Brazoria County Airport Barometer: 29.73" (1006.7 mb)
I'll be monitoring this...but it looks like Gavelston's pressure drop is the lowest.
