Hurricane Harvey made landfall along the Texas coast overnight as a powerful category 4. At 5 am Saturday, Harvey was located near 28.5 North, 97.2 West, about 35 miles southwest of Victoria, Texas. Maximum sustained winds were 100 miles per hour, and Harvey was crawling northwest at 6 miles per hour. In addition to damage from wind and storm surge, Harvey will cause catastrophic flooding with up to 2 feet of rain falling over portions of Texas and Louisiana during the next several days.
Elsewhere, the low that’s responsible for our rain has a medium chance of developing into a depression once it exits central Florida and reaches the Atlantic.
