Wicked looking cell in GoM approaching North Island, Pecan Island.

Looks like a bow echo out there. I wonder if it will make it onshore?

It sure does, hopefully this can dissipate before making it onshore, but those poor boaters out there are in for a nasty ride.

Besides, as of right now, there's not much to chase except for rain.......... or you can even record the thunder, lol.

The southshore may still need to watch that blow up of thunderstorms off shore of Cameron Parish. IR is looking impressive and is still expanding in coverage. The base of the rotation south of Cameron Parish is below 4kft. It could definitely have a wall cloud with it, and may have to be watched closely if holds together when it approaches coastal Terrebonne Parish in a couple hours or so.

Dar, you look to be in or on the edge of this bad patch, so heads up girl.

All eyes should be focused on what that does over the next few hours.
