That may explain a handful of people, but most are just too stubborn to leave. The inconvenience of packing and leaving > than the inconvenience of 100mph winds, in their mind at least.

HMON goes down to 932mb with 128kt winds.
Can y’all sometimes use good ol USA MPH so we can unnerstand how fast the wind is?

Great weather for protestors.

Just multiply the knots by 1.15

Actually it was Sunday for me and I was listening to the opinions of actual professionals. You got facts to back up your opinions?
I simply stated the storm had the chance to come in east of the La border, around Cameron. Not sure why that pissed you off so much but I will not argue with you in here....So you sir, have a nice day and good luck with the storm wherever she may land.

I'm too lazy sometimes to do the conversion. Something like 140 mph or so.

I stayed thru Gustav. Yeah 2 weeks without power sucks, but not being allowed to come back and start cleaning up for a week or 2 sucks worse

Impossible. Do like the rest of us and Google. There aren't many sailors here.

Yeah that courthouse will pull through again but I bet the people who decided to ride it out during Rita will advise not to do it. My previous in-laws are from Grand Chenier so I was able to get into Cameron parish a few days after Rita's landfall. It was incredible to see. The thing I always remember is how all the utility poles along 82 got ripped down and floated inland on the surge. The cables holding them together didn't break so they acted like a long band saw cutting into the oak trees along hwy 82. Cameron was leveled and nothing but a big mud flat.
Sadly this is about to be repeated.
Yea my aunt lives down there in Cameron. House survived Rita and Ike, but if it's about a true 15' the house will be gone this time. Every other time just the stairs and garage had everything washed away. Ike put a small amount of mud in the house, Rita didn't.
Hoping for the best for them, but doesn't look good. They are leaving this morning and getting out.

Yeah 6 hours. Laura went from a Cat 1 to a Cat 3 while I slept. I'm sorry for failing on my watch.
