July 19, 2008, marked the first time on record that three July tropical storms were active on the same day in the Atlantic. Bertha, Cristobal, and Dolly were all tropical storms yesterday. (from Weather Underground blog)

Dolly a significant threat to Texas
and
The latest GFDL and HWRF models runs from 2 am EDT this morning have shifted significantly north, bringing Dolly ashore near Corpus Christi, Texas. The GFDL shows a very large borderline Category 1/2
hurricane, with tropical storm force winds extending from Galveston to Brownsville at landfall. Dolly will probably grow quite large and affect a 200-mile stretch of coast with tropical storm-force winds.
Like her namesake, actress Dolly Parton, Dolly the tropical cyclone appears destined to become a media star.
And the best part?
Guess who is headed to Galveston Wednesday morning for some much
needed R & R? If I see Jim Cantore, I’ll be sure to tell him hello.

talked to my parents in the Lower RGV, and they’re not doing a whole lot yet — just pretty much expecting it to be rainy and windy, but since it’s just a cat 1/2, they’re not real concerned. They’re more worried about the flooding afterward.
