Some models still have it going over the New Orleans area, but the cone centers over the Mobile area.

I think some models are programmed to show storms going right up New Orleans.

I couldn’t tell you the last time a hurricane that had the slightest threat to form, enter, or travel through the gulf wasn’t at some point predicted to land right up NOLA’s arse.

Living about 200 miles inland from the coast, one thing I've learned is that they almost 100% of the time over predict the storms strength as it moves over land. In other words, you're not gonna get a tropical storm in Kentucky


I typically agree but this is a fast moving October storm. Helene went way inland.

My biggest gripe with a deep run inland is that land might not be the only weakening factor.

A H3/H4 landfall at that forward speed could really cut deep.

There was Helene which produced TS conditions in the NC mountains from a central FL gulf landfall.

you would think with with the advancements in AI this would be solved. i’m not impressed that’s all i’m saying, looks like we’re still just guessing

Will be interesting to see if anything changes based off actual data... Yesterdays recon was apparently their small jet and hundreds of miles away from assumed center of circulation.

the upper levels are really important for this type of set up where you have a trough to the west, ridge to the east, and a sub-tropical jet stream all in play.

Gotta be able to give it accurate data to get accurate results, lot of factors in weather.

Hurricane Isaias will be an excellent test for AI modeling. The AI has struggled all year with storms before they formed. The AI has steadily brought a hurricane to the far western Florida Panhandle this weekend. The old school physics models are closer to New Orleans. This below is the latest Google AI model. Big implications on who gets impacted this weekend. AI insists its the FL Panhandle strike. Physics models insist its eastern Louisiana.

Chaos equations don’t get “solved.” We are talking about fluids on an almost infinitely large scale. The predictions improve as we get better with the variables. And AI will help. It already has. Knowing exactly where a storm system will go and its strength isn’t going to happen.

weather by nature is very chaotic. Good luck predicting chaos (see Jurassic Park).

Plus, remember that all models are bad, but some are useful

We should have more data by now. I was just tracking it in case the first drop showed something outlandish and waiting on the epic fallout but no data.
