Really only the timing has changed since this morning

So are we expecting the storm to be worse than first thought or about the same?
It’s a dynamic situation

Not a single one has changed with any significance since 10am.

I reiterate. If the forecast is changing this much less than 24 hours before landfall its useless. People who went to bed planning to stay home will wake up having to consider leaving.
Very little, if anything, with the actual forecast has changed.

I followed it easily with your nice work.
It reminded me of a least squares plot of recorded lab experiment data when I first saw it.

Sure look like on IR just south of the deep convection an eye is wanting to try and pop out eventually

It’s going to be a nothingburger but will dump some rain, which we’re already used to, and some coastal flooding which is normal.

, so a 4 mile west movement of the line doesn't mean they've shifted the track west at all - it could just be the angle between the intervals
My main question is, why? Most models I see suggested it should have moved to just barely west if Hammond. Not trying to be difficult. Just wondering if they see something in the models that suggests they are too far east.

You’ll be much better off if you stop referring to single model runs as forecasts

Conditions ripe to sling water up on Lakeshore Dr. in Mandeville and give whoever the current 4th highest ranking Weather Channel field reporters some good screen time and doom shots.

I must say, I am quite proud of myself for this post. Probably some of my best work in a hurricane thread ever. I put the 4 black asterisks in MS Paint first, like a complete dumbass, but when I dropped that green line and got it to fit on the first grab, I damned near let out a tear.
And yet......I bet it will need to be said many more times. Bookmark. Hell, it should be pinned at the beginning of every hurricane season.

Bro you're expecting this to be way more exact than it is right now lol. It's not going to be exact down to certain intersections, that's absurd. It's going to be exact within a specific area in order for them to know they're in danger. 2 miles is absolutely nothing in terms of change here.

I’m more concerned about the winds. Just built a new home and fear that with the eye passing close to me that it will be very bad. From around Donaldsonville area and not seeing how this doesn’t damage things.

Yes, Lakeshore Drive is low hanging fruit.
But I will say I don't want the gusts increasing anymore above 70 mph with pine trees around

The difference between the 10a forecast and the 10p forecast at 7p Wednesday is 15 miles and 5kt of intensity.
This is the kind of shite that tgrbait08 thinks is significant. Shocker that this guy also argued that Belle River and Stephen(s)ville were substantially different for a few pages.

What’s amazing is that they keep responding to you

I don’t apologize for paying attention to details.
