This model depicted shows Dean making a run at the Galveston-Houston areas by early Wednesday morning. This model also has Dean missing the Yucatan peninsula- which would tend to decrease the intensity of the hurricane.
Another operational weather model shows Dean making landfall near or just south of Brownsville-TX around this same time period. That model takes Dean over the tip of the Yucatan- which decreases the intensity somewhat.
I urge all residents along the Texas Gulf coast to make preparations this weekend for Dean's forecasted landfall- possibly somewhere along the Texas coast- Wednesday.
Locally- models also predict what is left of Dean after landfall to be ingested northward- toward the Metro Region- late next week.
