As indicated yesterday afternoon reddit mts predicted correctly that this system is going to make a dramatic shift to the east those in laffy and even in western side of EBR needs to be very alert.


Been searching for updates information and forecast since about 4:30am this morning because I was starting to assume this was the case. Just watching the radar throighout the night it seems to be making more of an early push towards Louisiana than the forecasts were projecting.

Can you translate this for us?



Harvey is moving back into the gulf. Dry air is being ingested into Harvey. Still, there are bands of convection associated with Harvey moving east. 4-9 inches are expected in the highlighted area by noon.

Lake Charles is getting slammed. Nola is breathing a sigh of relief though according to local news

Did I just hear that right on KPRC that houses (idk where) along buffalo bayou that are evacuating will have water for 1-3 months?




KPRC doesn't understand the difference between the reservoir flooding and the release form the reservoir flooding.

N.O. Isn't out of the woods yet. The storm is dropping southeast back into the gulf now and is shifting east as we speak. Once it's in the gulf all bets are off

I am unfamiliar with this.

Yeah I was a little surprised by their attitude on the news. Said they expected rain but the heavy stuff would stay closer to Lafayette

Depends on two things:

1) Will Harvey make it far enough out to reach the warmer waters needed?

2) Will Harvey still have a strong enough structure to take advantage of it.

I'm thinking it won't. No way it overcomes that dry air.

Parts of Liberty County forecast for 25 more inches over the next 60 hours. 6z NAM - through 60 hours:



***That bronze spot east of Lake Pontchartrain is 19.35" over the next 60 hours.



Take away should be that most of south and central LA could see significant rainfall totals over the next 60 hours as the bands continue to come onshore. Biggest concern would be in SWLA, but if bands line up over other parts of the state, big time rain totals are possible.

Just continue your local radar for potential training bands.

Trump could rescue every person himself in the flood, and CNN would still find a way to bash it.
