I’d like to make a suggestion for this thread and all hurricane threads moving forward. We need more Stephanie abrams in between advisories.
Damn, I would bite that arse, get lockjaw and get dragged to death happily.

The cone is meaningless.
The cone's meaning is buried right in your first sentence - it's where the storm is most likely to go.
The governor though is 50% full of shiite though. In theory that 33% chance of a cone miss is split - 16.5% chance it misses East, and 16.5% chance it misses West. Using the "33% chance it misses the cone" to scare folks in New Orleans/Baton Rouge into thinking there's still a 33% chance it hits them is a misuse of that statistic.

It’s literally going to make landfall within the cone that was posted before this thing was even in the gulf and south of Jamaica

Wow. Baton Rouge barely got anything from Laura so if we're supposed to get Steve Caparotta's 60-80mph gusts, Delta is going to need to triple in size.

plus Laura was strengthening upon arrival this one will be losing strength upon landfall, so that is some good news !

The way Deltas track curves, it is currently forecasted to be 35 miles closer to BR than Laura. NHC track is west of GFS model which is showing 60-65mph gusts in BR.

Mind if I share that pic with some construction buddies?

he's 100% correct

Cones of uncertainty issued by the National Hurricane Center are accurate about two thirds of the time. They are drawn with the expectation that the entire track of the center of a tropical cyclone will remain inside the cone two times out of three.
