We'll see if NHC has the stones to drop it from 90 mph leading up to landfall.


It seems that true land wind speed is always around 10mph less than what is projected. The hurricane hunters measure the fastest possible wind speed in the heart of the storm over water. Land is whiskey dick for a storm.

I always thought it was when the eyewall first touches land. In fact, I can recall weather people on TV excitedly calling the landfall when this happened.

Looks like the eastern eye wall has become the strongest part of the eye while the formerly strong western eye wall has weakened considerably.

They could fly around in that eye for a while if they really wanted to.

I was going to make a comment about that on the last page when so and so told LSUHouston that St.Bernard wouldn't get the eye ha.

If the eye wants to keep being all oblongated then maybe Arabi will

Honestly watching TWC and various other stuff, looks like by the time it makes it to Baton Rouge it will have shifted east and we may not get much of anything

I’ve been wrong multiple times before though

Not intended.
Point being we are just 6 hours out and still had massive fear porn from Fox.
And yes, it could still rain for only an hour and flood areas of the city just like it does almost every month.
God speed to all. May it be a minor hurricane with limited damage.
