Arrived at Orange Beach last night. When can I expect being told to evacuate?

Amos what does your facility have to do for your people if anything? Assisted living, right??

Ok. So what can I expect in lake Charles Thursday? Certain doom? Total devastation?

This actually happened in 2002 with Hurricane Lily. Lily was a Cat4 in the Guif headed straight for Vermillion bay. I went to bed expecting to wake up to some bad shite but it weakened to a Cat 1 as it approached land. Later research showed Hurricane Isidore which followed a similar landfall oath a week earlier cooled the gulf waters causing Lily to loose energy.
Yeah it did happen but you have to remember those storms were in late Septermber Not late August. The gulf had already started cooling off due to fall air, then Isadore came through and caused a ton of upwelling and further cooled the track area. Lily looked like she was going to be a monster and the cool water really knocked her down. I do not see Marco having either enough time or strength to cause massive cooling in the Gulf. Certainly not enough to have any real impact on Laura's strength. Track maybe but not strength.

Jesus, talk about a one-two punch. Stay safe, people.

Unless things shift eastward with Marco or you are staying in a very flood prone place, I wouldn't expect any evacuations in Orange Beach.

Yes AL. We have evac contingencies but won’t unless mandatory evac ordered. Won’t happen. With Marco close, there’s not enough time to wait for Laura’s path. Would be irresponsible to order mandatory evac at that point IMO.

Wondering if any of the weather experts on this board can help correlate the storm surge predictions with the NOAA National Storm surge map.
National Storm surge hazard map
The layers refer to Categories --so I'm assuming Hurricane categories?
Once you familiarize yourself with it, the map itself is great in its detail and interactivity capabilities. And very ominous depending on where you live.
Just would like to know where Marco's predicted storm surge (currently 2-4 feet and hopefully a Cat1 hurricane) puts it so far as storm surge categories relative to this map.
I know different incoming trajectories matter alot to surge, thus my hesitation to believe that the Categories can be exactly related to hurricane category?
Thanks in advance.

Important to keep in mind, though, is that strengthening shouldn't last.
I’ll kindly disagree. Just looking at the IR satellite loop, Marco is starting to form an eye. May not be RI but it is certainly getting stronger

That dude that came by for the flooding four years ago could I think. Not sure if he is around anymore.
Posted on 8/23/20 at 11:57 am to purple18
all of the experts think Marco should start getting sheared and intensification should really be difficult. They could all be wrong, but let's hope not.

This thread is such a shite show. It's either going to be no big deal or complete and utter devastation. Mixed in between those posts are wild speculation, trolling, and politics.
Wish there was an actual serious thread that was monitored by an admin to keep it weather news related.

I’ve been away from the thread since this AM.
The NHC track for Marco is passing 1/2 mile East of me now.
Laura going West

You are going to have to kindly provide more info as to why we should believe you over literally every model that says this will be the peak intensity for Marco.
