   Expect #SpaceX #Starbase launch site at Boca Chica TX will soon have to prepare for possible storm surge from #HurricaneBeryl. Even after expected downgrade to tropical storm, wide storms push big surge ashore. Hazardous without direct hit. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at2+shtml/144425.shtml?cone#contents #weather #space

     #HurricaneBeryl 3-day forecast cone now spans out to #SpaceX #Starbase launch site at Boca Chica TX. The cone is likely tracks for the storm center. Larger area affected. For Starbase, the forecast centerline remains just south of them. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at2+shtml/023630.shtml?cone#contents #weather #space

     #HurricaneBeryl remains on course close enough to #SpaceX #Starbase launch site at Boca Chica TX. Forecast to re-form as a hurricane Sunday. More than wind & rain, if it passes south, right-front rotation will push storm surge at it. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphics_at2+shtml/174500.shtml?cone#contents #weather #space

     It remains to be seen if #HurricaneBeryl potential landfall nearby would cause more damage to #SpaceX #Starbase launch site at Boca Chica TX than it already got from IFT1 launch in April 2023. Crater & flying concrete vs saltwater tidal surge & erosion. #weather #space
