I'm thinking since its looking more like a Biloxi/mobile landfall and will likely be a lopsided storm we won't see much, is that fair?


Im in the area too.

There is still room for error o landfall. The storm is going to change a lot tonight and will show its cards in the morning. I would advise to stay very alert about this situation, its definitely concerning at the moment.

Looks like the confirmed pressure is 994. Lower than expected, but a far cry from 983.

994 better than 983 by a long shot.

This thing is humming past Cancun and up to the coast. If I had Nate pick me up a margarita from the beach it would still be cold when he got here.

Yeah 983 would be the bottom falling out. I'd still say we are in worse shape than we expected at this point in time.

12z Euro had 994 for 21z, so this is about what was expected. I will say that sat appearance is better than expected and continues to improve. The Euro weakens it a bit over the next 12 hrs, so the key will be what we see while recon is in the storm. If we see steady drops with continued improvements in sat appearance then that would be a concern.

ETA: 18z GFS with a slight shift east and about the same strength. It shows slow steady strengthening from here to landfall but is weaker than what recon showed at 21z.

Yea 983 would be strong cat 1 typically. That would have been bad news.

Hmmm Nate is gonna make people nervous. The east side still looks disorganized but looks like he’s getting his shite together fast.

I have folks in Houma and the Westbank not really knowing to go west or not.
