DING! DING! Round Two... Here Comes Delta.
Yep, here we go again possibly.
Keep an eye on #26, they're already referring to her as Delta.
They're already saying it'll most likely be a Cat2 by the time it makes the Gulf Coast.Ragnar Benson:

Die if you must, but die on your home turf with your face to the wind, not in some stinking hellhole 2,000 kilometers away, among people you neither know nor care about.

A LOT of uncertainty beyond day 3 (position & intensity, but weakening is indicated prior to landfall)...

Latest models have it drifting west MORE toward the TX/LA border and away from a direct-hit here. Bad news for THOSE folks, to be sure, wherever it hits.

I saw one yesterday but it was closed mouth. Would not eat anything thrown. I personally know of 3 that have been caught in the last two weeks. No kings yet.
