From Meteorologist Scot Pilie', he posted this on Stormcast:
quote:
I would venture to say a decent number of the GFS Ensembles will pull Harvey further east than the operational run. The trough over the Great Lakes & Midwest is pretty stout on this run, and I would venture to think Harvey could feel that tug at some point. This run is definitely a trend towards the Euro's consistent scenario. All residents in southwest & south-central Louisiana need to use Friday & Saturday to prepare for potential long duration heavy rain & flood threat...at a minimum. Additional impacts such as storm surge, isolated tornado potential, and wind threat are also on the table.

Slack or Geauxmedic, 98knots would make it a class 3, right?

That's a flight level wind. Surface winds are usually 10% lower, if not more.

98 kts flight level, those winds haven't made it to the ground yet. Surface winds right now are 73kts, 85 mph.

as scared as I would likely be, I would love to have a chance to do it

Yeah but it all depends on who gets stuck under a band for hours. In my mind we were always possibly getting over 20.

it's not the worst idea on earth... filter out the clutter while people are trying to get potentially life-saving information

Well stop sounding so damn casual about it.

Looks like they found winds up to 85kt at the surface, which would support an upgrade to 95 or 100 mph surface winds. Pressure seems to be @ 969.
