So what is the realistic expectation for BTR right now? 50 MPH gusts?

Beware though, this guy will tell you it’s raining when two inches of snow are on the ground

I havent made a decision but I have made hotel reservations in Destin for Wednesday and Thursday and tee times at Indian Bayou. I can cancel until tomorrow night at midnight so will wait for more info.

I'd rather spend some money and get away for a few days than dealing being home without power.

uh

Well, friends, this is what I'd call fear mongering. Models are not really showing this. Pump the brakes.

If other sources aren't saying that, take it with a grain of sult

I’m scheduled to be out of town till Thursday afternoon. My wife will head to orange beach with our baby. I wouldn’t leave Metairie if I was in town. Wife is only leaving because of the baby.

Hopefully I can fly back to MSY Thursday afternoon, but we’ll see. May try to fly in tomorrow.

A Cat 2-3 may have me rethink about staying in BR metro. Gustav was a bitch.

If the current track holds N.O. won't be effected beyond an average rainstorm.

I agree first of all…. but I will say that it’s harder to trust intensity models lately. Too many storms just raced right past the predictions within 24 hours sometimes

There have been some whiffs, for sure.

A lot of water piling up from the south without the normal emptying of a storm coming from the SE.... this would def not be an average rainstorm.

I didn't realize this thread would have wrestling takes.

First you have the AEW reference, now the storm is named for one of ECW's most famous personalities (the Queen of Extreme Francine).
