8-29 Harvey 5 days later
8-24 At one a.m. the advisory was for 45mph with pressure of 1001. 4am 45mph and 995. 7am 60mph 986 mb. 10am 65mph 982mb. 12 cdt it became a hurricane with 80mph winds. 1pm it was 85mph with 979mb. 4pm 976mb. 7pm 974mb. 4pm disco had it maxing out at 125mph. Just yesterday the question was would it achieve hurricane status.
Models are still out there....some bring it inland, some leave it stalled on the coast. 30+" of rain is not out of the question in some areas. Surge of 10 feet is expected. Wave hights on surfline were 22ft onshore with 42ft swells offshore. Latest GFS has it sitting over TX from Friday until next Saturday afternoon. 12z Euro had it stalling on the coast, then tracking up the coast slowly and intensifying as it hit Port Arthur/Sabine Pass.

8-23 Harvey began east of Barbados, went through the islands, fell apart, went through the Yucatan and now is gaining organization. Currently a tropical depression until higher winds are found. Visible sat looks like its there organizationally.
Yesterday's GFS runs had a remarkable 40+" rainfall with 20+ on the Euro for SE TX. Euro still is at 24" for Galveston, GFS has backed off into the 20s as well, with Houston getting 15". Today Euro is down to 18" and GFS at 15" for GLS.
