seeing the convection is now showing an abundance of low ridge pressure to the north which will in turn lower the millibars of horizontal isotopes in the eye thus creating an influx of surf swells upon landfall in the SE region.

Yes I agree

I don’t know why you responded to me with all this technical shite, and since I don’t know what it means, I’m gonna take it as disrespect.


Don’t do it again

Duke, what’s with this ridge of drier air it look like is in mid Texas. Is that going to steer this or affect it at all? I saw it on the water vapor image on NOAA.

Is this bitch worse than Rita if it took her exact path


Assuming the current forecast comes close to reality, wind damage and power outages will be worse but surge will be quite a bit less.

Overall the coastal damage may be less but in some areas both near the coast and inland the wind/tree/poorly built home damage will be worse.


Can you explain why you say that? I've been digging into what it was like in Houston for Rita as I figured that would be a pretty good comparison if the path holds.

My area saw 60-70mph winds during Rita (can't recall if gusts or sustained.) Not really wanting more than that.

It should still pass well to the north of 25°N before it gets to 90°W though.

So it appears as though it has wobbled back to the left of the thin little NHC track line.

@webberweather

Based on recent trends w/ #Laura & the steering pattern influencing it, I think #Laura will most likely make landfall somewhere between Freeport & Port O'Connor, TX as a category 3 or 4 hurricane, potentially putting Houston in the strongest right-front quad. We shall see...



Man this guy really face planted on this prediction from the wee hours of this morning. For reference, that's between Corpus Christi and Galveston.

There's a damn interesting conversation going on between Levi and Philippe Papin right now on Twitter.

quote:

Cliffs please

Papin posited that the reason for Laura currently moving more toward the eastern side of the NHC path was due to both Laura producing more convection and wrapping it around the center. He also wondered if a shift in what shear Laura is facing could be causing the current heading shift. Levi agreed that the convective bursts and the wrapping could be causing the "wobble", but noted that the direction of shear had not really changed.

They both agreed that this does not equate to a longterm shift in heading, however.

Of course, there was much more sciency talk.

Well Rita was a frickin monster and this thing “might” get to a 3, so imma go with no


Well Rita made landfall as a "weakening" Cat 3. Laura is projecting to be strengthening Cat 3 upon landfall. I would be proceed with caution in saying something like that.
