ETA: Laura's not supposed to be strengthening right now... this is a problem
Direct reflection of it trying to stack and staying offshore of Cuba.

New 10pm CDT advisory on TS Laura:

It's really more like Delcambre on this cone.
Now, to most of the world, that's the same as New Iberia.
To people from New Iberia and Delcambre, they'd both be insulted.

Laura continues to move swiftly to the west-northwest on the south
side of a strong subtropical ridge, with the initial motion
estimated to be 285/18 kt. The subtropical high is expected to
expand westward during the next couple of days, and that should keep
Laura moving fairly quickly to the west-northwest near or over Cuba
through Monday and then across the south-central Gulf of Mexico on
Tuesday. The models suggest that a gradual turn to the northwest is
likely by early Wednesday as the storm nears the western side of
the ridge, followed by a northward motion after that. The details
of the northwest and north turn are quite important when trying to
figure out where the core of Laura is going to make landfall.
However, at this time there is still a notable spread in the models
and their ensemble members, meaning that it is still unclear
exactly where the worst weather conditions will occur. The NHC
track forecast is little changed from earlier and near the
consensus aids.
Good summary of the track and the questions remaining.

20.1 North latitude is over land. But I guess the circulation is large enough and upper level winds are favorable enough for the strengthening.

Motherfricker! This isn’t good

And... what does this mean? Calm as hell in Maurepas right now.
The shear has worked Marco over and it no longer has a closed off eye. Likely weakening considerably, and may be starting the process of coming decoupled.

Marco downgraded to a tropical storm. Winds of 70mph.

Waiting on new cone to show up in NHC website. TWC has new cone and it doesn’t look like it’s changed much.

RIP Lafayette in that path.

From someone I follow on FB
The official forecast is still Hurricane Marco, but this nowhere close to a hurricane. Marco has been decimated by shear and has steadily been weakening. The pressure has come up around 10 MB and winds are under hurricane force. The mid-level center is racing away to the north-northeast. The low-level center is moving to the north-northwest. I do not think southeast Louisiana will receive significant impacts. Far eastern Louisiana could, but other than not much rain either. Very localized flooding remains and storm surge possible as wind on the eastern side pushes water against the north Gulf coast. Wind threat will be on the eastern side as well

On a Louisiana based message board, any and all shifts from here on out are going to screw someone else over.
Laura is currently forecast for the Hurricane Lili trek across GOM...
