Question

I’m new to mandeville. I have to stay here for work. My kids school is canceled through Thursday. My in laws live in north Louisiana. Should my wife and kid leave today to stay there till this is over or am I over reacting?

That puts BR squarely in the east side if it tracks that way.

LAURA


From the 11:00 am discussion which is currently going with a Cat 2:

quote:

When the center of Laura emerges over the Gulf of Mexico
Monday night, the upper-level environment is expected to be
conducive for strengthening, and once the circulation recovers from
its trek over land, deepening is anticipated. Warm water and a very
favorable upper-level wind pattern are expected to allow for steady
intensification until Laura reaches the northern Gulf coast, and
with landfall expected between the 72 and 96 h forecast points, the
system could be somewhat stronger than explicitly indicated below.

The NHC intensity forecast is a blend of the SHIPS and HFIP
corrected consensus models.

The shitty thing about most storms is the aftermath (no power). Especially with this one, won’t be life threatening. I’d wait until power goes out to leave town personally, especially if already in the Northshore, you could get out of town quickly.

Cuba could make a huge difference for how this stays a strong tropical system...... if stays about like it is now when it leaves Cuba it could turn into a very powerful storm.

Yes and the more west it goes the more time it’s over water and the more time it has to strengthen.
