Am I reading the predictions wrong, or is southeast Louisiana pretty much out of the picture, even next week?

I swear on the radar loop looks like it's moving more NNW most likely just a wobble though and not the true motion overall.

It's not out of the picture at all. There's a chance that the second landfall comes as far east as sabine pass... and that would bring a lot of rain even to SE Louisiana.

Not last year's flood level of rain.. but still a significant amount.

That 0700 NHC update will be a doozie for some to wake up to.

How is Lake Charles looking for next week with latest projections? Live in Baton Rouge area but work in Lake Charles and wondering if we are gonna be working early next week.

Given the tight windfield, the slightest wobble at the end could spare some and wreck others.

primary threat at the moment is rain. A foot or more is likely, favoring the "or more" if it stays over water awhile and makes a closer secondary landfall.



aside: I keep saying "secondary" landfall but it's technically the "quaternary" landfall because it hit the Antilles as a TS and the Yucatan as a TD. Gonna keep saying "secondary" though because nobody knows what "quaternary" means. Even Firefox thinks it isn't a word.

Learn to take a compliment

You Baytiger and Rds dc, translate the technical stuff for us common folk. Sure most of know the simple stuff like pressure drop means strengthening among other stuff that everyone living on the gulf coast knows. Its the stuff the weather channel and other don't provide and what it means that us weather junkies eat up, so keep it up

@EricBlake12 I don't think I have ever seen a heavier rain forecast from @NWSWPC in my life- the size of the 20+ inches of rain area is staggering

Harvey beginning to have the look/feel of a weather event that could become a demarcation in peoples' lives.
