The cone shrinks as uncertainty decreases.
Huge misconception.
The cone has nothing to do with the current confidence in any storm. It is simply a cone that is formed by taking the center forecast at each interval and then drawing a circle around that point that would have captured 65% of the track errors of the previous 5 years at that interval.
These are set in stone all year, whether they know where it’s going with 100% confidence or 0% confidence.

worried about the tornado threat on the eastern side of the storm as it encounters wind shear while heading inland

From MississippiWx on S2k: "Center relocation found around 23.5N 95.6W...dead center of the convective mass. Appears to finally be consolidating a core too."

Anyone in the Lafayette/Broussard/Youngsville area remember that severe weather that came in early May?
That hail was crazy. Roofers knocked on my door every week for a month before I ran them off. Luckily my roof didn’t have much damage at all. My neighbor just replaced his in July and said “with my luck we will have a hurricane and I’ll have to do this over again.”

Interesting, I stand corrected.

hopefully by tonight it’s get more stable, so we can get a better idea.
Screw that. The longer it takes to develop the weaker it will be.
Give me less predictability for a weaker storm than a more predictable stronger storm any day.

Well let’s hope I can land at MSY Tuesday night

This could be the first test for St. George's new mayor to show off his emergency preparedness.

Convection might be tugging the circulation to the NW.
10am update was 23.0 N 94.9W, but this recon pass was 23.5N, 95.6W
Not a huge deal but the storm center still isn’t super clear.
06z HWRF seems to be doing the best this morning. It does show the elongated circulation trying to consolidate on the NW end.

Wait I thought it was going to do that and then picked up and carried off to the East?
It’s supposed to move that way at 5 mph, not 56 miles in 30 minutes.

Did the system that sat around in the gulf a couple of days ago cool water temps enough to have an impact?
It usually takes a stronger storm to bring the cooler water to the top of the surface. I doubt it affected the water temps

A lot of y'all forget just how insane the cones were 20 years ago

Prediction: EBR schools will close Wednesday and Thursday.
That's a given. The only thing that remains uncertain is if the can successfully lobby to close Tuesday and Friday....which I promise you they are already arguing for.
