The Euro pressures are
48 hours - 975 mb
60 hours 962 mb (about 50 miles offshore)
72 hours 973 mb (Over land)
You can estimate that maybe it reached the high 950s pressure at landfall which is close to the GFS pressure of 958 millibars.
So both GFS and Euro show strong Cat 2 or weak Cat 3 at landfall.

Looks like Laura is heading towards the same tiny little corner of Louisiana Rita hit so we get to claim them as Louisiana landfalls.

it didn't really downgrade the storm per se... it's still a tropical storm
but the special advisory was to knock off the tropical storm warning for NOLA

Damn, we shoulda listened. What else can you tell us?

Seems it is moving due North at landfall. So any slower motion that turn could happen just a little sooner and hit further East, possibly? I’m just glad we seem to finally have a consensus. At least, until the next set of runs. Lol

Maybe this will put some fish back in Big Lake since it sucks arse now

12z GFS Ensembles getting dialed in for the most part:

So it weakened a little as it got close to landfall. If that verifies that would be good news for SW LA.

we have a substantial tornado threat in Baton Rouge with the current Laura projection right?

Not really. The models all seem to be agreeing in a general area. Beaumont to Vermillion probably should be looking at the bullseye at this point.

What are the forces moving Laura toward the state line? Would a slow down by Marco, leaving it lingering over east Texas, possibility push Laura more East or is the high too strong?
Posted on 8/24/20 at 1:23 pm to jimbeam
East- west.

Holly beach is also fricked.

Is there any chart or site that shows how wide the storm will be when it comes to wind? With it strengthening at landfall wouldn't it be larger/wider in surface area?

I know this is always the case but seeing that kind of graphic really highlights how big of a difference 50 miles either way makes.

Got down to like 959 @ 8pm Wednesday and then up to 968 at 10pm landfall. Seems a little unlikely to increase that much so quickly, which is probably why the winds aren’t expected to decrease as substantially in those 2 hours.
