Latest Purgatory weather update from our friendly meteorologists.

1. Most model guidance shifted east overnight that focuses the risk of landfall along the central LA coast (90 ) and away from the Texas coast (10 )

2. The storm has been slow to develop due to unexpected strong wind shear and even though we don't have s week defined center, confidence is increasing and favors a central LA coast landfall on Saturday.

3. The combination of anticipate storm consolidation and higher confidence in a more east track four-day into LA lowers chances of storminess across SE TX and the Houston area this weekend. A few scattered t-storms are possible Fri/Sat afternoon, but impacts will most likely be brief with partly cloudy skies, highs in the mid-90s, and light north to northeast winds of 8-12 mph expected. Chance of rain 30 ...but some of the models are trending dry all weekend.

So here is the latest and greatest and we are prepping for Day 1 with finishing stage build out, light and sound checks and all that fun stuff. lol See everyone soon.

Just got a update regarding weather for the weekend from a trusted source that doesnt cause alarm for ratings. Keep in mind that Plan B would be to host the Saturday pool party in the Grand Ballroom and possibly also the Heavenly House Ballroom. Friday is still looking favorable to host the pool party.

Key points...

1. Most model guidance shifted west overnight that increases the risk to the upper TX coast, but greatest landfall risk still focused southwest/central LA

2. Models still highly unreliable as we are still in the incipient stage of development, expect a wide range of solutions today and lots of rumors via social/other media

3. Forecast confidence should improve tonight/early Thu

4. Timing still favorable for Purgatory...greatest rain threat Sat night / Sun.

So we are keeping an eye on the weather with Plan B's. It's a huge event this year with a nationwide guest list and an incredible dj list. So get ready for Purgatory 2019.
