You've got a wife to clean it. Don't see the problem. Relax and do your business.

The difference between the models that WDSU and Fox 8 are using is astounding. WDSU has the worst basically over Gonzalez while Fox 8 has Metry/Nola getting the worst.

That's because Zack Fradella is at Fox 8. I love him but he's transitioned into a big hype meteorologist. He's good at what he does and I get it, he's trying to warn the NOLA area not to let their guard down because the high resolution models have continued to show this going into NOLA but it's like he's ignoring the NHC forecast altogether.

Personally, I can't wait to see who ends up being correct - NHC or the GRAF and other high resolution models.

That's just good safe practice in NOLA on a regular day.

Mesoscale Discussion

Craven-Wiedenfeld Aggregate Severe Parameter (CWASP)

This aggregate parameter is the sum of 33 individual weighted parameters, ranging from mandatory pressure level winds, temperature and moisture, to CAPE and vertical shear. Typical ranges of values were established for each parameter in association with significant tornado (EF2+) events, and a numerical weight of 0-3 was assigned to each parameter. If all parameters are consistent with historical EF2+ tornado events, the CWASP total will reach a maximum value of 99. The majority of EF2+ tornadoes have occurred with CWASP values above about 70.


Note: This is a BETA value. Just thought it was interesting that the same (southeastern Louisiana coastal) areas affected in the discussion are also starting to be highlighted here, which represents an aggregate of various conditions.

Be careful today, friends.

Let’s be honest, the track has shifted east by half almost half the state in the days leading up to landfall


do yall really want to do this again today?

The track has shifted ~80 miles since the storm formed, which is within their average error over 60 hours.

Before it was even a storm they issued an early warning that was near the state line - a warning designed to give people more time to prep since the storm didn’t actually form for another 18 hours - and people want to say they blew it. If they waited to issue something until they had an actual center then people wouldn’t have heard about this thing until Monday morning.

Lots of really strong winds showing up WELL to the east of the center per recon.

The local covington nws forecast went from 40 gusts last night to 62, now back down to 44, without the official track changing.

So what does one of the knowledgeable posters say? Duke, rsd? New Orleans or the NHC track?




New Orleans is along the NHC track.

ETA: New Orleans is going to be impacted along the NHC track. If the storm goes over Hammond New Orleans gets impacted just as much as it does if it’s 15-20 miles west.

The track has shifted a total of 30 miles since the center formed.

Working on some morning thoughts right now.

Morgan City like I said a few days ago.

Hopefully, for us, it does not take the Fox8 turn they have been talking about.
