I have some buddies flying out of New Orleans before 8 AM on Thursday. Are they screwed? They are flying to the West Coast

I'll post the waivers on the travel board once they're up, will need to keep an eye on the forecasts. Getting out earlier is always better. What airline?

Yea it will be easier to cool my guest house than my main house. Going to prep the portable A/Cs tomorrow. The guest house is on its own panel and meter and I have been thinking about getting a generator installed just for it for instances like this. Will move food to that fridge too.

Appreciate this. I’m scheduled to come back Thursday afternoon to MSY on SWA.

Way more sense then.

He's generally pretty fricking careful about that.

Flying into IAH/BTR Tuesday night. Hopefully this shitstorm hasn't started by then.

Rob Perillo at KATC says the GRAF model is “red flagging for rapid intensification”.

The model looks like it goes in at vermilion bay

I’m sticking with my prediction of landfall due south of Jennings.

I’ll be shocked if this doesn’t end up further east. Their discussion is already hinting at that. These types of storms almost always end up further east than the initial projections. It is still early and the storm is still forming so anything can happen but Lafayette and Baton Rouge should not ignore this.

I am still not leaning towards a very strong storm meaning anything above Cat 1. But some of the models are hinting at it even though shear seems like it will be screaming in the northern gulf. Maybe they see a way that the shear will help the storm? Just seems odd. I think there is also a lot of dry air north of the coastline thanks to this front that came through so I’ll be shocked if that doesn’t somehow get in as it nears landfall.

So the conventional wisdom and likelihood is that stronger equals further east? Weaker equals more likely to hit around Lake Charles?

Idk. Back in 2005 he’s the reason we decided to leave for Rita. I seem to remember him doing a good job with it.

12z vs 18z GFS runs are virtually indistinguishable at 66hrs out.


On a beeline towards the Central LA coastline

Same for me. I’m just not sure how backed up flights will be if this thing passes close to Houston before hitting land.

I’m gonna wait till tomorrow morning to make a decision.
